The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices … to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill … and suspicion can destroy … and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own—for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is … that these things cannot be confined to … The Twilight Zone!
This is the opening to the monsters are due on Maple street.. it’s like we are now living in that time .. Mr Serling tried to warn us with this fear
It’s a great episode.. it’s in my top 5 along side of the masks which tells a story of a greedy family I guess you could say is based on the trump family, yet the mask he wears is just as hideous and repulsive as the ones his family wears

Amazing how hard Vance is willing to fuck his own state to advance his own career. Ohio has supported Trump at every low point, and now the monster is eating them.
