Totalitarianism is the absence of all elements of ordered existence. The "all" can be absolutized, because the motives require it. The primary motive is to get rid of the complexities of rationality that corrupters cannot manage.

Corrupters are fighting a war against rationality, because it exposes them as the incompetent corrupters that they are. They try to replace rationality with the power to prevail over other persons. Power becomes the supposed source of truth, knowledge and justice.

Rationality is the process of making relationships between realities, the same as reason. Explaining claims is an important element of rationality. Doing that links realities to the objective realities of the universe that define life and solutions to problems.

Starting down the path of basic absurdities rapidly compounds the process. Basic means something applies to a large part of existence—far more than corrupters realize. To attack the rationality of an enemy is to attack a large part of ordered existence.

Since the purpose of corrupters is to create the absence of something very basic—rationality—extreme absence becomes the essence of the process. Extreme absence shapes and characterizes totalitarianism.

It seems preposterous that corrupters would assume extreme absence to be a good thing; but they do. They are extremely simple-minded.

When Reagan said government is the problem, he was trying to create the absence of government in terms of its ordered complexities. So-called deregulation was a process of removing the most important elements of government—it's laws. Afterwards, totalitarians want nothing left of government but their arbitrary whims giving them power over everyone else.

Reagan also said, if you have to explain, you are already a loser. That means he assumed being a winner is the purpose of life and rationality is for fools.

To say the Justice Department investigating criminality is nothing but a political process is to say laws are not relevant. When Trump was impeached for defying clearly established laws for protecting against totalitarianism being created through campaign processes, conservatives said it was nothing but a life-style dispute. Replacing clear laws with life-style is eliminating rationality and ordered existence from government purposes.
