I remember the first time I saw that episode. My first thought about the Talosians was, "The back of their heads look like butts!"
Oh and in the long run of Star Trek, the Talosians were considered so dangerous by the Federation and Starfleet the whole planet was declared quarantined and off limits. Anyone breaking that rule would be put on trial with the death penalty hanging over their head. . .and from all TV episodes, novels, etc, a guilty verdict was very much guaranteed. A person would have a much better chance of getting a life sentence for treason instead of the death penalty.
Then there are the remarks I make about it's not right to compare famous dems/leftists to fictional characters and that the fictional characters are way better than the dems/leftists in question. Here the comparisons is dead on-
The Talosians let war wage(to the point it wrecked their planet to nearly the point of no return) like how Biden/Harris let war wage in Ukraine and Israel.
The Talosians used their powers to gaslight others just like how MSM tries to gaslight us.
It takes a strong will to resist the illusions of the Talosians just like how a strong will is needed to resist the lies of the Dems/Leftists/MSM.
The Talosians are to be avoided to like a plague for the safety of and stability of the rest of the galaxy. Dems/Leftists should never be voted for the safety and stability of the USA and by extension the rest Earth.
