Summary

This quote suggests that throughout the 20th century, the only form of revolution that has achieved tangible success is totalitarianism. It implies that other political or social revolutions have failed to bring about lasting change or achieve their goals. This interpretation may stem from the belief that totalitarian regimes, despite their often oppressive nature, have been more efficient in consolidating power and maintaining control over the masses compared to other forms of government. However, it is crucial to note that this assertion is subjective and disregards the negative impact of totalitarianism on individual rights and freedoms.
