Who’d-a thunk Kevin Spacey would go from ogling Mina Suvari to crushing democracy in The Land of the Free as a corporate overlord? Wait, that kinda makes sense. “Dystopias are often characterized by dehumanization, totalitarian governments, environmental disaster, or other characteristics associated with a cataclysmic decline in society,” the wikipedia hive mind opines. In these days of NSA spying and police militarization, plenty of Americans see their country heading that way. And so people flock to movies and video games where individuals fight for individual freedom. Is this fear of tyranny driving gun sales? If it is, is that a bad thing, a treasonous thing, as gun control advocates suggest? After all, President Obama assured us the government is us.
