Interestingly to me, Arendt makes a good case that fascism is distinct from totalitarianism. It's possible to have a fascist government that is authoritarian and dictatorial, but not fully totalitarian. It's also possible to have a totalitarian government based on a system other than fascism.

Agreed, it's some sort of a Venn diagram of "traits" present in both -isms.
