What isn totalitarism?

Totalitarianism is a political system characterized by centralized control by an authoritarian state, where the government seeks to regulate nearly every aspect of public and private life. It often involves the suppression of dissent, extensive Propaganda, and the use of surveillance to maintain power. Totalitarian regimes typically reject democratic principles and civil liberties, aiming for complete control over society and often promoting a singular ideology. Examples include historical regimes such as Nazi Germany and Stalinist Soviet Union.
