How did/do they differ?
Did one evolve into the other?

Do---or do not.
There is no try.

To my way of thinking, Leviathan is a monster that will violently attack you right to your face, while Deep State is more of an entrenched, obstructionist force that keeps legitimate government from functioning.

We’re operating somewhere in the middle right now. If push comes to shove, Leviathan owns most of the media, but we have most of the means to fight back if absolutely necessary.

You are on the right track. The leviathan represents for Rousseau The big all powerful government that we currently called the deep state.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

"The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth."
