Scientists as villains

In the original V mini series, the "Jews" of the Nazi analogue aliens were scientists who were persecuted by the aliens for supposedly plotting against the human race. Knowing how many movement conservatives were quick to assume the new version of the show depicts President Obama as a fascist totalitarian alien, its a tad bit ironic to see so many conservatives who seem to have bought into the same sort of anti-science conspiracy that the Visitor aliens sold to the public.

Witness Christopher Monckton who believes that the IPCC was created to establish a one world dictatorship rather than to address anthropogenic global warming and the associated climate change.
