Lately I've been watching (on DVD) the 1960s alien-invasion TV series "The Invaders," in which an alien species has assumed human form and is infiltrating all aspects of society as a prelude to a takeover of the entire earth. It's striking how much this reminds me of the Deep State and of the ever-increasing leftist control of our institutions.

The aliens' methods of control are very similar to those of the left: ridicule of those humans who have discovered what is going on; preying on the sense of human guilt over our own failures and historical sins; the use of sexual seduction and promises of rewards for cooperation with the aliens; the adoption of high-sounding rhetoric and profession of noble objectives; and - in the two-part episode I am watching now - the use of a fake or artificially-induced worldwide environmental crisis to lure world leaders to a conference at which they will be killed.

Although it only lasted two seasons, it's a pretty good series, starring Roy Thinnes and featuring many prominent guest stars of the time - Peter Graves, Ed Asner, Andrew Duggan, Michael Rennie, Edward Andrews, Susanne Pleshette, Richard Johnson (Gilligan's professor), Norman Fell, and many others whose faces you would recognize, if not their names.

Upon reflection, some of the plots contain very implausible elements, but it's fun anyway. (In one episode, the aliens install a "hurricane-control machine" in the sanctuary of a Catholic church, rather than in some secluded spot.)
