In "The Giver," sameness and totalitarianism are closely linked concepts. The society in the book strives for sameness by controlling every aspect of citizens' lives, which mirrors the principles of a totalitarian regime where individuality is suppressed in favor of conformity. The pursuit of sameness ultimately leads to a loss of freedom and critical thinking among the inhabitants of the community.
Jonas initially believes that sameness is good because it prevents conflict and promotes equality. However, as he gains a deeper understanding of the limitations of sameness and the importance of individuality and diversity, his opinion starts to shift towards valuing these differences. Ultimately, he comes to reject the idea of sameness in favor of embracing the complexity and richness of human experience.

In "The Giver," the concept of sameness is discussed throughout the book rather than on a specific page. The community in the book strives for sameness by removing differences and making everyone conform to a strict set of rules and norms. This theme is central to the story's exploration of individuality and freedom.
The community might value stability and uniformity over individuality and change. Sameness can promote unity, minimize conflicts, and create a sense of predictability for its members. It may also be enforced or reinforced by social norms, cultural traditions, or governing bodies within the community.
The Giver tells Jonas that it would not be safe if Sameness was replaced with individuality and freedom. He explains that allowing people to make their own choices and experience emotions would bring about risks and challenges that the community has avoided by enforcing Sameness.
