Participation in approved public organizations is at first encouraged and then required. Thus, the social fabric is weakened and people become more amenable to absorption into a single, unified movement. Under totalitarian rule, traditional social institutions and organizations are discouraged and suppressed. Because pursuit of the goal is the only ideological foundation for the totalitarian state, achievement of the goal can never be acknowledged. Any dissent is branded evil, and internal political differences are not permitted. The resulting popular support permits the state the widest latitude of action of any form of government. This obsession spawns an ideology that explains everything in terms of the goal, rationalizing all obstacles that may arise and all forces that may contend with the state. Whatever might further the goal is supported whatever might foil the goal is rejected. All resources are directed toward its attainment, regardless of the cost. The totalitarian state pursues some special goal, such as industrialization or conquest, to the exclusion of all others. Totalitarianism is often distinguished from dictatorship, despotism, or tyranny by its supplanting of all political institutions with new ones and its sweeping away of all legal, social, and political traditions.
