funny....the point you guyes seam to be hitting on is is criticism a form of
repression.
as in if i say i like chocolate ice-cream am i repressing/trying to repress
those that do not. (e.g. by expressing distaste for other flavours, or say this
girl is in love wih me - now am i repressing her into likeing chocolate?)

but now say everyone in the this country Zablu, say for some reason or the
other (say genetic) they all actually liked chocolate ice-cream. And when asked
their favorite flavour, they mearly expressed it. Now does this imply
repression?
Just because eairlear there was more of a balance and now there is less does
not imply repression.

you are not shushed - it is self censorship.
