Brin: New Wingnut Meme: Cultural Terrorism
Fascism is on the March: http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/03/25/MNG6OHU6RR1.DT L This is more than a spiritual war, Luce said. It's a culture war. Military metaphors abound in Luce's descriptions of the struggle. He tells young people of how an enemy has launched a brutal attack on them. At a pre-Battle Cry rally Friday afternoon on the steps of City Hall, Luce told his mostly teenage audience that terrorists of a different kind -- -- were targeting them and that they were caught in the middle of the battle. -- The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. -- James Madison ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

A woman at our church (Bay Area, Methodist: about as far from the wingnut extreme as you can get outside of a UCC congregation) told me that her daughter's friend -- an otherwise reasonable girl -- was caught up in this Teen Mania thing.
