Totalitarian Narratives: The War Against Memory, Knowledge, and Meaning

How authoritarian regimes dismantle the cultural and scientific systems that make truth, memory, and accountability possible.

James B. Greenberg

Aug 09, 2025

Totalitarian regimes don’t just censor. They replace. Their goal is never simply to silence dissent, but to erase memory, restructure meaning, and insert a new narrative in its place: one that cannot be questioned because it’s the only one allowed to exist.

From an anthropological perspective, this is not just a campaign against freedom of speech. It’s a redrawing of reality. What’s being targeted is the cultural infrastructure that makes shared understanding possible: archives, evidence, memory, data, institutions, and the people who use them. These are not neutral domains. They are dangerous precisely because they carry the power to contradict.

And contradiction cannot be tolerated in a system that depends on obedience.

History Must Be Managed

Authoritarianism always begins by reshaping the past. History, in this context, is not a record. It’s a resource—a quarry to mine for justifications, origin myths, and scapegoats. What matters is not what happened, but what can be made useful.

The question is not simply, What do they want to erase? It’s, What must be erased to justify what comes next?

In Trump’s political narrative, slavery is minimized, fascism is trivialized, and settler colonialism becomes a patriotic origin story. The sins of the past must be reframed as virtues, or simply removed from textbooks, exhibits, and archives. Monuments remain, but context vanishes. Critical race theory, once a legal field, is now a scarecrow used to shut down any curriculum that encourages students to ask why things are the way they are.

From an anthropological lens, this is a reengineering of collective identity. If the past can be made glorious, the present can be made sacred. And those who challenge it can be made enemies of the nation. The past ceases to be a terrain of inquiry—it becomes a weapon.

Science Must Be Silenced

When Trump returned to office, one of his first quiet orders was the dismantling of a key satellite climate monitoring program—one that had long provided independent, verifiable data on global temperature trends. The move was buried under other headlines. But its purpose was clear: if reality contradicts the narrative, remove the sensor.

This is not just about suppressing inconvenient science. It’s about delegitimizing the production of knowledge itself. In a regime dependent on spectacle and denial, the very existence of objective data becomes a threat.

From a political ecology standpoint, the destruction of climate observation systems is not merely symbolic—it is a material assault on society’s ability to perceive and respond to ecological crisis. Scientific data is a form of resistance precisely because it reveals long-term harm, collective responsibility, and the costs of extraction. In a regime built on short-term gain, that kind of knowledge cannot be tolerated.

But the suppression goes further. Agricultural sustainability data, oceanographic studies, epidemiological trends, and biodiversity inventories are all targets. Any dataset that cannot be bent into compliance is defunded, buried, or deleted.

This is more than censorship. It is the manufacture of ignorance—a deliberate campaign to destroy the possibility of verification so that only belief remains.

Destroying the Commons of Knowledge

Knowledge doesn’t live in the abstract. It is cultivated, stored, and made usable through public institutions: federal agencies, universities, libraries, museums, archives. These are not just buildings. They are the nervous system of democratic memory.

Universities are under attack not just because they are “liberal,” but because they are sites of independent thought. From the regime’s perspective, critical thinking is not just dangerous—it is disloyal. Academic disciplines that ask fundamental questions—about power, history, justice, ecology—are recast as indoctrination.

From an anthropological point of view, this is an assault on the social function of questioning. Education becomes performance. Scholarship becomes surveillance. The goal is not just to control what is known, but who is allowed to know it—and under what terms.

Libraries and archives are threatened for the same reason. Their holdings are public memory. Their value is in preserving contradiction. When regimes erase records or defund repositories, they’re not just saving money. They are targeting the capacity to remember.

This isn’t just a cultural battle. It’s a structural one. These institutions hold the evidence needed to challenge the state’s version of events. Destroy them, and the state becomes the sole narrator.

Journalism Must Be Dismantled

Independent journalism occupies another critical node. Investigative reporters document corruption, expose hidden power, and give voice to the disempowered. That makes them dangerous. Under Trump’s second term, the media faces renewed pressure—through lawsuits, funding restrictions, physical threats, and a flood of coordinated disinformation.

But the goal isn’t merely to intimidate. It’s to devalue journalism itself, to make the entire field suspect. When every outlet is branded fake, the only source left standing is the regime.

The consequences are profound. Fact-checking becomes treason. Accountability becomes defamation. The public’s right to know becomes a privilege to be revoked.

This isn’t just a threat to press freedom. It’s a blow to the cultural infrastructure that allows democratic oversight to function. Without trusted intermediaries, all that remains is noise—and power.

Culture Must Be Controlled

Art, music, poetry, and performance speak to something deeper than policy. They shape how people feel about themselves, each other, and the world. That’s why authoritarian regimes are always suspicious of them. They are too powerful to be left unregulated.

The culture wars are not moral panics. They are instruments of control. When a mural is painted over, when a play is shut down, when a drag performance is banned, it is not culture that is being policed—it is meaning itself.

Totalitarianism doesn’t destroy culture. It colonizes it, turning it into spectacle, purging it of ambiguity, and using it to glorify the state.

The anthropological significance is clear: when culture is repurposed for propaganda, society loses one of its core mechanisms of renewal, reflection, and resistance.

The Instruments of Repression

These are not hypothetical threats. They are happening now.

The destruction of satellite infrastructure. The defunding of databases. The purge of federal scientists and researchers. The restructuring of university boards. The legal targeting of journalists. The ideological cleansing of curricula. The erasure of inconvenient archives.

Each act may seem minor, even technical. But collectively, they form a strategy: to make it harder to know, and easier to believe.

The goal is not simply to consolidate political control. It is to monopolize the tools by which reality is constructed. To eliminate the possibility of contradiction—not just by silencing dissenters, but by destroying the systems that allow dissent to be legible in the first place.

This is what totalitarianism looks like in a digital democracy.

There are no mass arrests. No bonfires of banned books.

But a society where the books are still on the shelves, and no one remembers how to read them.

Where the data exists, but the agencies are gone.

Where the past is still archived, but the archivists are fired, the budgets slashed, the buildings shuttered, the servers wiped.

Where elections are held, but journalism is drowned out, universities are gagged, science is sidelined, and memory has been turned into myth.

This is not just a war on information. It is a war on meaning—on the human capacity to remember, to reason clearly, and to imagine a different future.

And without that, democracy is not overthrown. It evaporates.

genuine question — how is donating money going to help Palestinians if no food is going in? What is the money for?

Medicine, water, supplies, food, fuel (much of it black market being upsold at egregious prices) — these all cost money and pretty much all Palestinians in Gaza have no source of income now. It’s drops in the bucket compared to ending the siege and occupation but it’s one way to do at least something small to help. Others are in need of money to evacuate when the border opens again (which hopefully is asap…), tuition and supplies for school to continue studies despite it all. Another fund is focused on trying to rebuild farmlands in Gaza to get food again that way.

I can’t tell anyone what to do with their money but I don’t think this mindset of “well nothings going in so we can’t help” is helpful for people on the ground who are the ones saying that donations can and do help them survive.

Nour (@noor509) is raising funds so he can provide basic needs for his two children, one of whom was born in the middle of this genocidal war! Imagine trying to raise and feed a baby in a genocide, in the midst of constant bombings and with no aid being allowed in! Israel has killed at least 17,400 children during its war on Gaza! With Israel's constant attacks, survival is no easy feat, especially with a baby so young!

To make things worse, their Gofundme fundraiser was closed by GFM when the campaign organizer Andrea (@roadimusprime) switched how he transferred the money to Nour. They have created a PayPal link to collect funds, but donations to Nour have been suffering ever since! Please share and donate if you are able to! Every little bit helps!

Nour’s GFM was Shared by 90-ghost! The link doesn't work now because Tumblr took down Nour's old account, but see the reblog in the Wayback Machine link here, also see the screenshot of 90-ghost's reblog here and here.

Voter Suppression

Trump has asked Texas Republicans to gerrymander congressional districts ahead of the 2026 midterms. Doing so could (theoretically) give Republicans an additional five seats in the Texas congressional delegation. It appears that Democratic legislators in Texas are preparing to flee the state to prevent the necessary quorum to pass the gerrymandering legislation. Politico, Texas Dems to flee state amid national redistricting battle.

Per Politico,

Dozens of Texas Democrats plan to flee the state amid a special session Sunday afternoon, making a last-ditch effort to disrupt a mid-decade redistricting attempt forced by President Donald Trump, according to two people briefed on the matter. It marks their second act of breaking quorum — when the state House will lack the minimum number of lawmakers needed to conduct business — since 2021. And it comes as the party scrambles to counter the aggressive action in Texas, intended to keep Republicans in power in Congress next year by creating five GOP-friendly seats in the state.

In response, other states controlled by Democrats are considering mid-decade redistricting to counter gerrymandering efforts in Texas. To be clear, the point of those Democratic efforts would be to engage in political gerrymandering to offset gerrymandering in Texas.

Some readers have cautioned against Democratic gerrymandering, arguing that such efforts amount to voter suppression against Republicans. Other readers say that we are in an existential battle for democracy and that refusing to reciprocate in the (sadly) permissible practice of partisan gerrymandering is shortsighted. See, generally, Brennan Center for Justice, Gerrymandering Explained. (“[S]ince the Supreme Court’s 2019 ruling . . . gerrymandering for party advantage cannot be challenged in federal court.)

If Texas Democrats succeed in shutting down the Texas legislature by fleeing the state, then states controlled by Democrats can avoid the difficult issue of reciprocal partisan gerrymandering. The obvious solution to partisan gerrymandering is the passage of legislation like the Freedom to Vote Act, which Democrats attempted (but failed) to pass under President Biden

The effort by Texas Republicans to engage in mid-decade redistricting is but one of the many voter suppression efforts that Trump has put into play since his inauguration. The Brennan Center for Justice has summarized the current voter suppression efforts by the Trump administration in this article, The Trump Administration’s Campaign to Undermine the Next Election | Brennan Center for Justice.

The Brennan Center is a highly respected source of reliable information and scholarship. It accurately catalogs the Trump administration's voter suppression efforts. It would be easy and understandable to read the Brennan Center article and come away with a sense of dread and foreboding about 2026.

The article by the Brennan Center also lists the countermeasures to defeat the voter suppression efforts by the Trump administration. So, for example, per the article,

Voter suppression effort: Attempting to Impose a “Show Your Papers” Requirement on Voters. Status: Subject to challenge in five lawsuits across the nation, implementation of some provisions blocked by two of those lawsuits.

Voter suppression effort: Meddling with Election Equipment. Status: Challenged in two lawsuits, and “the agency still must follow several steps under federal law before the guidelines can be implemented, including consulting with advisory boards of nonpartisan experts and posting the guidelines for public comment.”

Voter suppression effort: Accessing Sensitive Voter File Data. Status: “In some states, giving voter records to the federal government without written consent from voters would also be a violation of state law; in others, redaction would be required.”

Voter suppression effort: Weaponizing federal agencies. Status: “Courts have already struck down this administration’s attempts to subvert the law. For example . . . two courts have preliminarily stopped the president from unlawfully trying to direct an independent, bipartisan agency to add a citizenship document requirement to the federal voter registration form.”

I could go on, but you get the point. Educating ourselves about the problem is the first step. Identifying solutions, including those already in the works, is the second step.

I receive emails from readers every week saying, in effect, “Okay, the 2026 elections will take place, but Trump will ensure they are not free and fair.” The obvious follow-up questions are, “How is he going to do that?” and “What can we do about it?”

Many readers highlight the “voter suppression” tactics without acknowledging the countermeasures that are already in place. To be clear, I am not saying that we can relax and let down our guard. That would be unwise, just as it would be unwise to communicate that “All is lost” and “Trump is going to rig the 2026 elections and there is nothing we can do about it.”

A more accurate statement is “Trump is trying to rig the 2026 elections, and Democrats are fighting back on all fronts.” Don’t just spot issues; spot solutions as well. And communicate both to nervous friends, neighbors, and fellow activists.

Finally, if you want some confidence about the path to reclaiming free and fair elections, I highly recommend this 37-minute video featuring David Pepper being interviewed by John Avlon. See The Bulwark, Fight Everywhere or Lose Everything! (w/ David Pepper)

The video explains that Republicans have an unfair electoral advantage in the US House because of decades of partisan gerrymandering, a practice that tends to “lock in” minority rule.

Sounds bad, right? Well, it is bad, but there is a solution.

As David Pepper explains, decades of gerrymandering have resulted in a situation where Democrats do not field a candidate in many state-level and federal-level districts. In some states, the number of unconstested races is shockingly high—as in 30 to 40%. When there is no Democratic candidate on the ballot, that sends a message to Democrats in that district that they should not bother to show up.

As David Pepper explains, just having a Democratic candidate on the ballot in “safe” red district can affect statewide and national races. For example, Allison Riggs just won a seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court by a margin of 700 votes. Riggs won her seat after the chair of the North Carolina Democratic Party, Anderson Clayton, committed to having a Democratic candidate in every state legislative race without regard to Democratic prospects for success in those districts.

Allison Riggs sits on the North Carolina Supreme Court today because civic-minded Democrats committed to running as a candidate in a safe red district in North Carolina. Per David Pepper, “There is a public service in running that goes beyond winning.”

David Pepper also explains that failing to contest every race at the state level distorts national elections as well. Mike Johnson, the current Speaker of the US House, began his political career with two unopposed terms in the Louisiana legislature. In 2022, Johnson won an uncontested congressional election, after which he was elected Speaker of the House. In 2024, he faced no Democratic opponent.

Mike Johnson has presided over some of the most reactionary legislation ever passed by the House. As David Pepper notes, “Without the gerrymander, most of the GOP’s extreme policies would lead the GOP to lose over and over again.” And yet, according to legacy media, Democrats are losing because of “their message,” not because the playing field has been stacked against them.

David Pepper says the following near the end of the video: “The battle for democracy runs through your backyard. Helping a 'red district' Democrat to run can help end gerrymandering. Fight from the bottom up!”

The message from David Pepper and John Avlon is empowering. If you are worried about 2026 and would like some thoughtful commentary on the path forward, I recommend John Avlon’s video interview of David Pepper. The Bulwark, Fight Everywhere or Lose Everything!

Trump's effort to “cook the books.”

Last Friday, Trump fired the chief statistician for the Bureau of Labor Statistics following a weaker-than-expected jobs report. That effort was greeted with widespread derision and alarm. Major media outlets and economists described the action as shortsighted and dangerous. See WSJ, The Bureau of Labor Denial. (Accessible to all.) (“The reality of slowing job growth is clear to anyone paying attention, no matter the official statistics. Mr. Trump’s data denial is one more reason fewer Americans will trust the government.”)

The White House spent the weekend mounting unconvincing defenses of Trump's action. As noted in the Wall Street Journal editorial above, even Trump's defenders couldn’t quite bring themselves to say that firing the chief statistician was warranted. See also, The Guardian, White House officials rush to defend Trump after shaky economic week | Trump administration.

Indeed, some of the defenders simply made matters worse. See CNN, Hassett says Trump ‘wants his own people’ at the Bureau of Labor Statistics after firing commissioner.

Per CNN,

National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett defended Trump’s decision to fire Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Erika McEntarfer, claiming the president “wants his own people there.”

It will further erode the trust of the American people by staffing a non-partisan function with political appointees. Future economic reports will merely be the “starting point” for endless political bickering about the true state of the economy. And it is a no-win situation for Trump and for American business.

If the jobs report magically rebounds after Trump appoints “his own people,” that outcome will be inherently suspect. But if employment and inflation continue to trend in the wrong direction, Trump will fire the next crop of new hires and continue to replace qualified statisticians with political hacks. (Think Mike Lindell, the “My Pillow Guy.”)

The real loser in a “cooked books” scenario is American business. Business leaders need accurate data to make appropriate hiring and investment decisions. Indeed, denying accurate data may be a recipe for disaster. See NYTimes, Trump Fired America’s Economic Data Collector. History Shows the Perils. (Accessible to all.)

The Times article is worth your attention. It discusses historical parallels, including Greece, where the government faked economic reports for years, resulting in a collapse of the Greek economy and multiple bailouts by the IMF and European Central Bank.

And when a Greek government statistician began to report accurate numbers, the Greek government persecuted him for nearly a decade in a series of overlapping criminal and civil cases. When the statistician would be acquitted of a charge, he would be tried (and convicted) by an appeals court on the charges rejected by a jury, or a different prosecutor would file the same charges again in a different venue. See American Statistical Association, Eight Years of Government Persecution of Greek Statistician.

Trump's firing of a statistician because he does not like the actual economic performance underlying the statistician’s report is affirmatively harmful to the US economy and another attack on the rule of law. Our elected representatives can do their jobs only if they know the truth about what is happening in America. By firing the chief statistician, Trump is attacking the truth and, derivatively, the democratic system.

Even the bird was not spared from pain. He flew off to find food for his little ones, but when he returned, he found them in pieces beneath the ashes of a burned branch. He stood silently, crying—unable to understand the language of war or why the souls he sang to every morning were taken away. If a small bird could feel such agony, imagine the heart of a mother under endless bombing, or a father holding the torn bodies of his children with shaking, powerless hands. Donate here

My name is Sami, and I speak to you from the heart of Gaza. We have survived being buried under rubble again and again, carrying our children as we flee from one death to another. There is no medicine, no shelter, no food. My children tremble from hunger and fear. I’m not writing this to sadden you—I’m writing to try to save my family. My mother is sick, my siblings are displaced, my children are starving. We live in tents that protect neither from the heat nor the cold. If you’re reading this, leave even a dot—it means you saw us. Please donate here. Someone is praying for the help you can give.

"I wish children didn't die. I wish they would be temporarily elevated to the skies until the war ends. Then they would return home safe, and when their parents would ask them “Where were you?” They would say “We were “playing in the clouds” Ghassan Kanafani, Palestinian author and leader of PFLP.

Six years after his assassination, a collection of his stories entitled “Ghassan Kanafani’s Children” was published in Beirut. Most of its heroes are children, and it is directed to young people. It was accompanied by paintings by the Syrian artist Burhan al-Din Karkutli. Karkutli, who was born in Damascus and lived in Germany, moved in his paintings between Syria, Morocco, Mexico, and Palestine, and many of his works depicted popular Damascene life and the Palestinian cause, inspiring many artists even today.

Save the life of my child and my family 🚨🚨

I raised 25,130 euros... Yes, this number never leaves my mind, because it was my whole hope, my whole heart, my whole strength, but I lost all my money 💔

My dream was to rescue my father from danger, from death, from the jaws of illness, but the dream was suddenly shattered... 😭

The campaign ended, everything disappeared, the money was lost, the effort was lost, the hope was lost... and I watched my own slow collapse 😭

I'm not living... 😔

I'm just breathing, between shock and disappointment

I had a simple dream: to get my father out of hell, to see him breathe outside the rubble, to treat him... 🥺

I saved money with difficulty. Every euro weighed heavily on me, as if I were cutting it from my own flesh... But I lost everything

I lost the money... and after that, I lost all sense of security 💔

But life wasn't enough. It was as if it was telling me: There's still more we can lose from you.💔

My wife... 😭😭

The woman we've only been married to for a few months... The one who used to put my hand on her belly and say, "Here's our baby," Turned up in front of me into a writhing body, her face pale, her eyes filled with fear, 💔 Every night she screams in pain... and I have nothing for her 😭💔

There's a 7-centimeter cyst on the ovary... 😔That's what the doctor said, without batting an eyelid. 💔 "Dangerous to the mother and the fetus... She might bleed... She might lose the ability to have children forever... You might lose the baby... And you might lose her." 💔😭😭

My wife... 🥺

My wife, who is four months pregnant, used to say to me, "God willing, we will live to see him through," 🥺💔 She started groaning in pain... unbearable cramps... pain that tears her apart every day 😭

My wife is bleeding from pain... 💔 I don't know if I'll ever hear my baby's voice... And I can't afford medicine, I can't afford surgery, I can't even afford my daily bread 😔

I used to have hope... and today I have nothing. 💔 I used to have money... and today I have nothing but tears. 😓 I used to have a simple dream... to save those I loved... 😭But I see them slipping away before my eyes, one by one. 💔

Every night, I sit next to her, place my hand on her stomach, and cry silently... I'm afraid of losing her, of losing my son, of waking up one day to find no one. I'm afraid of opening my eyes to an empty tent... no wife, no child, no father, no voice... only the silence of a graveyard where no crying is allowed. 💔😭

Will I lose my father?

Or my wife?

Or my son?

Or myself?

Or all of them at once?

No one feels me. 😭💔 No one sees the night I sleep, placing my hand on her belly to reassure myself that the baby is still there. 💔 No one hears her voice as she cries in pain, while I tell her, “Be patient,” while my insides collapse. 😭

Now, will I lose my father? 😭💔 I need you. Look at my wife. Look, she needs medicine every day, and my father suffers from many diseases. 😭

My friend, look at my wife's condition. Look at our tragic life. 💔😭

My family's future has been completely destroyed, and I can no longer live in Gaza. I want to leave the Strip and treat my son and parents abroad, so I need $5,000 per person.

I hope you donate even $20, it will save my son's life ❤️🙏

My friend, can you imagine that I have become helpless? 💔‼️

I am Ahmed, I live with my father, but life has become very painful between hunger, thirst and other things. I went to the aid south of Rafah, where the Americans hold the aid, and I went to get food, but they opened fire on us and my leg was shot, and now I am disabled. 💔 They put iron in my leg so it wouldn't be amputated. If I don't take the necessary treatment that the doctors prescribed for me, my life will deteriorate and they will amputate my leg. But they performed a very dangerous surgery on me, and after several attempts, the operation was successful. They threatened me that if I didn't take care of myself, my leg would be amputated. 😭😭 I had a simple life, a warm home, and my mother died. She used to fill our lives with light. But the war took everything from us... Our homes were destroyed, our dreams were burned, and all that remained was pain and fear. 😭

Can you imagine that I die and my leg is cut off and I remain disabled for the rest of my life, and I am in the prime of my youth? 😭😭 Can you imagine what it means to me? I am a person like any other human being. I went to get food so that we can live. Every day we die of hunger. The Israeli army started shooting at us and most of the people were martyred. I was shot in the leg, and in my last moments they saved my life by cutting off my leg. But after that, will I die or will my leg be cut off? 😭😭

Can you imagine the hunger and thirst that we live with every day? I die of hunger every day of my life. My father is sick with Sultan's disease, multiple sclerosis, and pneumonia. The doctors tell me that your father will one day pass away. He will lose his sight and stop seeing anything. Can you imagine it? 😭😭💔💔💔 No, no, I can't imagine it. I am in your hands. Please help me.

The doctors told us that we only have one option to save him: my life. An urgent and complicated surgery to save my life will be in a few days to reattach the tendons and so that I can move my leg. 😭💔 Can you imagine a person who does not move his leg and remains helpless and filled with sadness over the loss of my mother? Also, my father is sick with diabetes, hepatitis, and multiple sclerosis. They said that at any moment my father will be separated from life and will stand still and live blind and unable to do anything. ‼️

Look at our meaning. I live in dilapidated tents. We go to a place about 100 meters away to go to the bathroom. 💔 We live in dilapidated tents and everything is separate from the details of life. Everything. Every day we die of hunger. I never imagined. 😭

Please donate to save our lives. Please help us buy food and medicine. Please don't leave me alone here. We are dying every day. I don't want to lose my life. Help me, don't hesitate 🙏🏻

Share my campaign 🙏
