If one doubts the separation between the American conservative and progressive, then doubt no more. Henry A. Giroux lays it all out in no uncertain terms as to where the country is today and where it should be heading. He does not do it on some backwater channel, but as the leading essay on truthout.com, one of the more prominent socialist websites that is funded by subscribers. In ‘Revenge of the Zombies: Palin, Beck, and Limbaugh and the Return of the Dark Times’ Giroux’s characterization of conservative and Tea Party America is a chilling depiction of how one side can de-humanize the other – in preparation for what? The brave new world anticipated here is worthy of some serious contemplation.
