Answer:
This quote means that suppressing the truth and deceiving the masses is the main way to start a tyrannical and oppressive government.
Explanation:
Tyranny is the opposite of democracy and is characterized as a government where the leader has unlimited power and can manipulate all the elements that make up society in any way he wants, even being able to serve his own interests and not the interests of the people. Tyranny is established mainly through the manipulation of the masses, where concepts, elements and real news are manipulated and present false statements where the truth is suppressed and thus the tyrannical government is able to maintain its control.
