MOVIE REVIEW: ‘Captive State’ — How, Via Coercion, Distant Autocrats Take Control of Humanity

Captive State is a film about control, total control of humanity by global government. Our contributors have written about the effort to create a global government (a.k.a. One World Order) under the United Nations’ program titled Agenda 21.

Rolling Stone magazine reporter Bilge Ebiri describes Captive State perfectly saying, “The largely unseen Legislators rule not through the gee-whiz space-age power of laser beams and whatnot, but via the traditional coercion of distant autocrats.”

Simply stated, the only way UN Agenda 21 can work is to have “distant autocrats”, using coercion, to deny private citizens of their private property rights. If you own nothing you are nothing. Hence a Captive State is where the people, with the aid of technology, become the “property of the state.”

Well now there is a film that portrays how this comes about. Take out the “aliens” and put in the United Nations autocrats who implement Agenda 21 at the city, county, state and national levels and you have the theme in Captive State.

Watch the trailer:

Captive State is about how the leaders of every country voluntarily submit to global governance run by the “Legislators.” Sound familiar (BREXIT)?

According to the Focus Features Captive State website, “After 10 years of occupation, some chose cooperation, others chose resistance.”

Today we see this playing out in the fight between those who hold dear their national identities (nationalists) and those who want a world without borders run by autocrats (globalists).

As Ayn Rand wrote, “The basic issue in the world today is between two principles: Individualism and Collectivism.” Rand defines these two principles as follows:

• Individualism – Each man exists by his own right and for his own sake, not for the sake of the group.
• Collectivism – Each man exists only by the permission of the group and for the sake of the group.

There is a growing resistance against the globalists in places like France, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Brazil and Venezuela. And yes, in America as well. Globalists embrace collectivism. Nationalists embrace individuality and freedom.

Captive State is about the individual versus the collective.
