Number Six refuses to comply.
In every episode, Number Six resists the Village's indoctrination methods, struggles to maintain his own identity, and attempts to escape his captors. "I will not make any deals with you," he pointedly remarks. "I've resigned. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own."
Yet no matter how far Number Six manages to get in his efforts to escape, it's never far enough.
Watched by surveillance cameras and other devices, Number Six's attempts to escape are continuously thwarted by ominous white balloon-like spheres known as "rovers." Still, he refuses to give up. Number Six's escapes become a surreal exercise in futility, each episode an unfunny, unsettling Groundhog's Day that builds to the same frustrating denouement: there is no escape.
The series is a chilling lesson about how difficult it is to gain one's freedom in a society in which prison walls are disguised within the seemingly benevolent trappings of technological and scientific progress, national security and the need to guard against terrorists, pandemics, civil unrest, etc.
The Prisoner's Village is also an apt allegory for the American Police State: it gives the illusion of freedom while functioning all the while like a prison: controlled, watchful, inflexible, punitive, deadly and inescapable.
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide: this is the new mantra of the architects of the Deep State and their corporate collaborators (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google, Instagram, etc.).
They see your every move: what you read, how much you spend, where you go, with whom you interact, when you wake up in the morning, what you're watching on television and reading on the internet.
Every move you make is being monitored, mined for data, crunched, and tabulated in order to amass a profile of who you are, what makes you tick, and how best to control you when and if it becomes necessary to bring you in line.
Consequently, we now find ourselves in the unenviable position of being monitored, managed, corralled and controlled by technologies that answer to government and corporate rulers.
Consider that on any given day, the average American going about his daily business will be monitored, surveilled, spied on and tracked in more than 20 different ways, by both government and corporate eyes and ears.
This is the electronic concentration campthe panopticon prisonthe Villagein which we are now caged.
It is a prison from which there will be no escape. Certainly not if the government and its corporate allies have anything to say about it. And none of this will change, no matter who wins this upcoming presidential election.
That's the hustle, you see: because despite all of the work being done to help us buy into the fantasy that things will change if we just elect the right candidate, the day after a new president is sworn in, we'll still find ourselves prisoners of the Village.
So how do you escape? Remove the blindfold that blinds you to the Deep State's con game, stop doping yourself with government propaganda, and break free of the political chokehold that has got you marching in lockstep with tyrants and dictators.
As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, until you come to terms with the fact that the government is the problem (no matter which party dominates), you'll never be free.
