Look at the fiction, from those loonbox "Left Behind," books all the way through to right wing sf by Pournelle, Ringo, etc. And I liked "Red Dawn," but c'mahn...
So are you saying you missed the extent to which the leftists hope to have the same? Or is it just "not as far?" One needn't look too far on the net, or even off this board.
And from what I remember, the "Left Behind" books don't mention Civil war, but rather the takeover by the "U.N." figure after a conspired nuclear attack on the U.S. Great stuff actually.
