Referring over to the "Consciousness: brain function, or more?" topic, this fits into my fanciful metaphor where humans are the cells of a greater organism; and that these unhinged, crazy mofos are cancer cells - they do not function for the good of the organism.

Somehow in their peculiar state of consciousness they are viewing apocalyptic B-grade movies on their inner synaptic Big Screens. All the RightWingNuts live in the same sort of dystopian fantasy worlds. A vaccine is needed.

Not a vaccine, a surgical removal of the cancerous cells. Extirpation by scalpel. Or radiation?
