Few videos I have seen wrenched my gut like this one…it’s all true and all very tragic. Read my comment following this post for the disclaimer—I do NOT support the views offered by the film maker and his ideologues.-Randy Maugans

I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much baby…”

On Modern Servitude (Trailer) from Selecao on Vimeo.
Modern servitude is voluntary, endorsed by those slaves who crawl on the surface of the Earth. They buy the merchandises that enslave them every day more.To participate in the round of frenetic consumption, one must have means and one must, therefore, work, in other words, one must sell oneself. The dominant system champions work as its most esteemed value; slaves have to work more to buy on credit their miserable lives. Slaves wear out in the work place; they waste their vital strength and have to suffer the worst humiliations. They spend their lives performing grueling tasks for the benefit of a few. Modern unemployment is invented as a scare tactic to force slaves into endless gratitude the generosity of the power elite.
I will post the cautionary message here: this trailer presents a very concise summary of a problem, one that is real. I also see the dialectic process “between the lines” of the message. (Problem-Reaction-Solution).
I did not have access to the full video when I posted this trailer, but suspected this is another “Zeitgeist”-type agenda—thus IT is part of the dialectic process, as well.
There is NO man-based solution. The masses cannot rise up and “take back” their liberty because they are slaves not of the “totalitarian state”, but of the kingdoms of the Satanic…ONLY Jesus provides the liberation.

Those with discernment will be able to deconstruct it.
Clearly the video is an anarchist anthem. Mercantilism is positioned as the ‘enemy’ to be fought, with the not-so-subtle implication that ‘fighting the power’ will bring in a utopia by default on planet Earth.
People are not inherently good, and removing a perceived evil will not ever make them good. People are inherently wicked, and there is only one solution to that. If this inherent wickedness is not addressed by the One able to address it, then all else is vanity and striving after wind.
Modern servitude’s aim is not merely to suppress opposition to the hegemony of the mercantilists. While it serves that purpose very well, the ultimate purpose is deeper, and far more insidious.
And the thing that is most insidious about it is something that even most Christians are not willing to accept. Mostly because the mercantilist ideology has by now thoroughly subsumed the church.
And the spirit of servitude in the churches will not be driven out, not even by prayer and fasting.
The only solution to the spirit of mercantilism in the churches, is the familiar quote from Revelation: come out of her my people.
PT Barnum at one point is said to have erected a sign in his American Museum exhibit (where people were staying all day rather than patronizing the vendors outside):
THIS WAY TO THE EGRESS
God is giving them enough rope to hang themselves. Mercantilism will fall of it’s own weight soon enough.
The lyrical quote from Elvis’ “Suspicious Minds” is most appropriate. It is a trap, to see if the wicked will fall in.
Don’t stick your head in the noose.
