What do you call someone whose rights have been taken away from them?
For example, if someone took my right/freedom of speech, by forcing punishments or such.
What do I become? Is there one word to describe this situation (where rights are taken away)?
Disenfranchised is used in the sense of denied the right to vote, but can be extended to other rights as well:
disenfranchise (also disfranchise)
verb [ with obj. ]
deprive (someone) of the right to vote: the law disenfranchised some 3,000 voters on the basis of a residence qualification.
• (as adj. disenfranchised) deprived of power; marginalized: a hard core of kids who are disenfranchised and don't feel connected to the school.
• deprive (someone) of a right or privilege: a measure that would disenfranchise people from access to legal advice.
