I am not a number, I am a free man!
Ever feel like your fellow man is living in an alternate world, willfully ignorant to the mass of evidence proving their reality a fraud? Too afraid to question their own beliefs, examine alternative conclusions, or wonder of different possibilities; they’re blinded by emotion. Against all forms of reason and logic, fear, dread, hope, despair, etc… will win out; driving your fellow man to further devote themselves, to further perpetuate, and to defend by any means necessary the same fraud.
AMC’s Six-Part mini-series remake of the classic British TV-series, The Prisoner can be seen as an illustration to my suggestion. I’ll leave it to you to draw parallels to society and your own fraudulent reality.
Starring Ian McKellen, James Caviezel, and Jamie Campbell Bower, ‘The Prisoner’ will premiere this November.
