The correct answer is A) true.
It is true that Totalitarian Leaders of all types used propaganda and suppressed democracy and freedom to maintain power.
We have many examples in world history about totalitarian leaders and what they did in their respective countries. Examples of totalitarian leaders are Soviet Union leader Joseph Stalin, Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini, and German leader Adolph Hitler, to name a few.
These authoritarian and totalitarian leaders were dictators and suppressed people's liberties and civil rights to better control them.
These totalitarian leaders did not support democracy, suppressed freedom of speech, and severely punished people who criticized them.
