The Town of Babylon is one of ten towns in Suffolk County, New York, United States. Its population was 218,223 as of the 2020 census. Parts of Jones Beach Island, Captree Island and Fire Island are in the southernmost part of the town. It borders Nassau County to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the south. At its westernmost point, it is about 20 miles (32 km) from New York City at the Queens border, and about 30 miles (48 km) from Manhattan. The village of Babylon is also within the town.
“America as a metaphor for Babylon has been a common idea both here and around the world for much of the past" American century." ... To many of those on the far right, Americans are a decadent people, deceived by a mass culture and mass media that serve up madness and mayhem as entertainment hourly in TV programs, films, and popular music.”
