TOTALITARIANISM: The Nation as a Single Organism: Nothing can be Separate from this organism.
Richard A. Koenigsberg
From the lecture, “Nazism as Bodily Fantasy,”
 presented at the William Alanson White Institute
The Nazi dream: In order to bring men gradually nearer to each other, Hitler explained, they had to be thrown into the “great melting pot, the nation”—that they might be “purified and welded one to another.” Organizations promoting disunion or disintegration had to be uprooted and “all those must be ruthlessly eliminated who disturb this community."
Hitler's idea of "totalitarianism" is contained in the following passage from one of his speeches: 

My Movement encompasses every aspect of the entire Volk. It conceives of Germany as a corporate body, as a single organism. There is no such thing as non-responsibility in this
organic being, not a single cell which is not responsible, by its very existence, for the welfare and well-being of the whole. Thus in my view there is not the least amount of room for apolitical people.|

The essence of totalitarianism is contained within this passage: the nation is conceived as if a single organism with human beings constituting cells of this organism. Thus, there can be no such thing as an individual existing in a condition of separation or separateness from this organism.
