A psychological condition of society known as "Mass formation" is a condition for totalitarianism.
Under mass formation, a population willingly sacrifices their freedom.
"Through the process of mass formation, they switch from the very painful condition of social isolation to the opposite state of maximal connectedness that exists in a crowd or a mass."
People WILLINGLY participated in the Nazi atrocities because of the psychological state society was in, the mass formation phenomenon, not because they feared their leader.
In the end, people who are under mass formation hypnosis will feel greater social isolation than ever before, less meaning and purpose in life, and more free-floating anxiety and free-floating aggression than before.
Another important point is that, typically, only 30% of people in a totalitarian society are actually under the hypnotic spell of mass formation.
Not surprisingly, mass media is a key tool for the successful creation of mass formation.
