The Empirical Me
I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.

lol… The Goon looks hilarious, can’t wait to take my eight year old to see it.
Am I the only one that sees zombie films as tempting the American predisposition to mass murder and fascism? The bumpkins who cheered Rick Perry’s legal lynchings will lap up The Goon.
I’ve never actually seen a zombie movie so I can’t comment. But I like the film nor vibe of this preview.
I think that’s one of the points made by, at the very least, George Romero’s first two zombie flicks (Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead). I haven’t seen the other Romero flicks, but those two feature many scenes of angry mobs with shotguns gleefully shooting zombies.
