With another critical US election looming, Haughton returns to Seattle, offering a representative selection of the series. He introduces three distinct groups of ‘actors’ on the stage: angry white men, puppets – pathetic men driven to lone-wolf violence, and the Puppet Masters - cynical men who manipulate hatred for personal power and profit. Haughton would argue that the men in this last category are the truly evil - the men who most need to be called to task: people like conservative media celebrities, Canadian far-right internet bloggers, radio & cable talk-show hosts, white supremacist leaders, and former American Presidents. He warns anew: “They are making fools of us all”.
