👉 A totalitarian state is a government that systematically and openly controls all aspects of society, including education, media, religion, politics, economics, and even individual behavior. It is characterized by the suppression of dissenting opinions, the promotion of authoritarian policies, and the elimination of civil liberties. This type of government often involves the use of surveillance technology to monitor citizens' activities and beliefs, as well as a system of censorship that suppresses oppositional voices.
