Thirty years ago, moral panic profiteers like McIntosh and his vice squad partner Sarkeesian would have been leading the charge against subliminal messages on heavy metal records, or the epidemic of Satanic child abuse in day care centers. One day soon, we’ll be able to look back and laugh at the thought that anyone took these frauds seriously. The bad news is, that will just mean that we’ve found a new moral panic to fixate upon. People don’t “progress”; they just trade an older-model hysterical delusion in for a newer one. And so it goes.
