A "Sedition Act" is a law that criminalizes resisting the Colbert Nation.
A "Sedition Act" is a law that criminalizes activity seen by a government as subversive ([[sedition]]). These acts almost always infringe on human rights and can be an early sign of governmental tyranny. By silencing discontent, the government gains carte blanche to act as it pleases, without fear of revolt.
In the [[United States]], there have been two Sedition Acts.
*[[Sedition Act of 1798]]
*[[Sedition Act of 1918]]
