It depends on how you define oppression or overt punishment. Some people define oppression as the legal inability to have a direct effect on politics. If that is the case, then, no, Dictatorship cannot work without oppression or overt punishment.
If however, you use the words "oppression" and "overt punishment" to refer to the inordinate use of force and human rights violations in many dictatorships, such as Russia, China, and Sudan, then, yes. There are a number of dictatorships with "average" or "below average" levels of imprisonment and non-political human rights violations. Such dictatorships include: the government of SIngapore under Lee Kwan Yu, the government of Tunisia under Habib Bourghiba, the government of Prussia under King Fredrick II, and the government of Georgia (Sakhartvelo) under Mikhail Saakashvili.

The Illuminati did exist at one point but the Catholic Church is no longer a dictatorship so there is no need for them to exist any longer.
True. Monarchy can function as a dictatorship when a monarch wields absolute power without constitutional limitations, often ruling without the consent of the governed. Conversely, constitutional monarchies exist within democratic frameworks, where the monarch's powers are limited by law and the government is elected by the people, allowing for democratic governance alongside a ceremonial monarchy.
