How did Hitler’s rule in Nazi Germany exemplify totalitarian rule?

Totalitarian regimes can be seen as the complete opposite of democracy and are characterized by repression, control over public and private life and use of terrorism. No freedom of speech or action was allowed and the nazis created a state where opposition was punished with violence by spreading fear and terror among the population. In the first place, Hitler created organizations like the SS which maintained the nazi rule. Together with Goebbles, the minister of propaganda, he exerted control over the news and media and manipulated the mass. Along with it, he won the support of his people by using propaganda which facilitated and promoted genocide. Films also played a leading role in disseminating antisemitism and asserting the superiority of the arians. Following the assassination of the German diplomat, a clear example of the Nazi violence was the so called "night of broken glass" when 7000 Jewish businnesses were destroyed and synagogues were smashed. However, this was only one of the many episodes of the Nazi violence which culminated in the creation of the concentration camps.
