Dare to question

8/3/2022

Geopolitics is like a game of chess in which half the pieces are invisible and nothing is what it seems. A key to making sense of what’s happening, of what different parties are doing, is to consider each player's underlying moves and motives in terms of: location and territory, access and resources. It revolves around strategies and tactics, often hidden, sometimes using distraction or misdirection to draw attention to one arena whilst making a play in another. It’s a sophisticated game; one that’s designed to increase one’s own security, wealth and advantage via influence and control.

It begs some critical questions as we look across the world, e.g. Why are things as they are? What is really going on here? What is holding our attention? What are we not-noticing? Who is shaping the narrative? Who stands to benefit most? In some contexts, asking such searching questions will lead to disapproval at best or a bullet from a passing motorcyclist at worst. Hidden forces may conspire to preoccupy us with pleasure, entertainment, drama, busyness, materialism – anything that will prevent us from pausing long enough to take a cold, deep, hard look: to think, listen, wonder, ask and pray.

I wrote a reflective piece some time before the UK Brexit Referendum, focusing on the European Union’s strategy of expansion and policy of centralisation. I questioned whether it could fuel far-right nationalism and lead to serious conflict in countries like Ukraine. Some friends who described themselves as liberal were furious: the EU ensures unity and peace. I wrote a short subsequent piece, questioning whether NATO’s expansion eastwards could equally feel threatening to Russia and create conditions for war. Some people agreed this time – but were too afraid to say it openly.

This is how power, vested interest and group-think play out. We see Russian police silencing people who dare to speak out against a brutal and self-defeating war in the Ukraine, and UK politicians silencing people who dare to question NATO, accusing them (wrongly) of supporting Putin. We don’t see any spotlight shining on the background transnational arms industry’s profits – and the influence that kind of money can exert over political decisions. Global weapons expenditure was $1981bn in 2020 and countries everywhere now are racing at breakneck speed to increase ‘defence’ budgets.

We do see heart-breaking scenes portrayed on TV and social media of frightened children, frail elderly people and families torn apart, hiding in basements or fleeing bombardment in Ukraine. We don’t see the ripple effects across the rest of the world on countries and people that were already the poorest and most vulnerable. Fuel, energy and food prices are spiralling, corruption is rife and the costs of even the most basic commodities are soaring terrifyingly. Insecurity and instability drive people to prioritise ‘strong leaders’ over democratic values. Half the pieces are invisible – and nothing is what it seems.

Nick,

Politics can be a touchy subject for so many. Despite a belief system one embraces, emotions will often drive decisions. Your friends who ended relationships over your voice regarding a specific matter has little to do with you but the ability to manage a relationship with the self. Speaking out against government who'd sooner see you sit and comply is the epitome of embracing the integrity of the self-relationship.

Those invisible pieces you reference can be those emotions. We can't see them and often times don't know they are available for analysis until the keeper of the emotions has reacted. It is these emotions that coerce others into compliance and conformity: group think. Those are the pieces that are not secret weapons but delusional ones. In the end, the tangible pieces others can view with their own eyes that come out on top and they are typically known as hindsight.

No matter your voice, how it mimics or differs from my own or others, is one to be heard as all voices can be. How they are heard is entirely up to our unique belief system. This is why some voices will hush others (your "friends") and some will lift others.

Outstanding article.

Thank you, Tara, for your encouraging feedback and for such profound reflections. I really liked your insight that the 'hidden forces' can be intrapersonal - e.g. beliefs and emotions. It's fascinating to me that parallel dynamics can be played out, a bit like fractals, at all levels of a system - ranging from global geopolitics to intra- and interpersonal relationships. At times, we can only begin to make sense of what's happening by viewing that person, relationship or situation from the perspective of a different level.

Well written, Nick. Let's keep praying for peace before the world collapses. Our government in the Philippines announces to be prepared for food etc. If the war worsens, everyone will stay home to avoid high cost of transport in going to work. All goods will be so high that no one can afford them. The government’s announcement makes people panic - which directly means DEATH to the poorest people.

Thank you, Precious. Yes, the impacts on people in places like the Philippines can be both hard and heart-breaking. I, too, pray for peace - not only for the people in the Ukraine but for all those who are poorest and most vulnerable in the world.

Very well written. Truth - interesting enigma sometimes. Did you listen to the Russian (Putin colleague) on Radio 4 this morning. She argued that Russia does not bomb civilians, therefore the bombing of the Ukrainian cites cannot be Russia as they do not do that sort of thing.

I was listening in on a conversation between two bright young things on the train a week ago before this conflict got going. They amusingly came up with an argument that Putin is the Wokest as he is a climate change warrior, knowing his actions will increase the cost of fuel and so reduce its usage and therefore save the planet. 🤪🙂

Thank you, Daniel. You reminded me of this bizarre news piece too from the other wide of the Pond: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-china-flag-russia-ukraine-b2029695.html?fbclid=IwAR2Rfx7IrBc29euqN16ZtrXb54_et5J5lpXJsgVrpVx1RSNKhFIRZF86bAs. Definitely lateral thinking. 🤔😜

Thank you, Heather, for such encouraging feedback. :) You reminded me of an excellent book I read some years ago by psychotherapist Susie Orbach, called 'What is really going on here?' She had an insightful way of viewing macro social-political issues through a psychodynamic lens. It's not always easy to work out what is really going on in the world - so much smoke and so many mirrors... I pray for discernment, wisdom, courage and hope.

Hallo lieber Nic,
late but better than no response: Thank you for your special joke birthday card an your good wishes.
And I feel like a pleasure, if you say you are inspired from me. But I think, the thoughts lay in yourself and born just also in times we met us.
I am really attired how consequently you follow your way, supporting poor, social deprived, and vulnerable people in this world. You follow this way so hard that, in fact, you loose your own comfortable living style. Respect!
Now to your essay for the newsletter.
A preface:
If I am a Rebell? I don´t know, in this time more than in my early history. Specially it belongs to situation of Ukraine and similar situations. I am really emotional involved in what happens. In the meantime, I feel, I am not encouraged enough to do special engagements. I dream from a way, to show people, force to reach peace is in another way possible, then to use violence with armes. I dream many human beeings go with me to Russia, only with a white flag with in a rainbow application. I dream more than 100 000 people go together to Russia and meanwhile sing a song of peace. I dream, there are persons, who say they are Christian, who believe, we have to fall in Putins arms with bloody violence arm-machinery to stop Putin. I dream, old generals, who bielieve pacifism is a naive thinking and behaviour, come with us and show Putin in this way hero behaviour.
I believe, bloody violence forces a high potential of aggressiv bloody violence.
After all I am sitting here and thinking about, what are the reasons that this dream couldn`t work. In this time, in the world human beings are hurted and dying – many many many…
Short statements to your essay:
- War is, however, shit
- Many probably mistakes force the war between Russia and Ukraine. For example:
o False estimation of Putin’s psychology condition
o NATO Ost expansion
o Special sayings from Obama, Russian is a country with only regionally power status
o EU act in an egoistic and egomanish behaviour in all important questions
o Leaving tendences from EU-States, and also the Brexit
o Trying by economical imperialism to subdue weak countries

Never the mind: All this is no reason to begin a war
- Yes, very rich person makes much money to a war. And yes, this person who earn much money, would do everything to merit more and more money. But this is a fact, since people make war. The only way to stop this, is to stop arm factories.
To do this, we need worldwide understanding of option. Option which makes sure, all countries in the world could overlive in a good human way. Responsible that it works is installing a world police.

- No, I don´t believe, that war supports tendences to autocratic and dictator’s leadership in a country. Germany seems to be a good example, that may be more than 15 % of the inhabitants want an authoritarian leadership and this in a time before Omicron or Ukraine war started.

- I think, that a big problem is the approach to anthropology. Is it the welfare and the life from every single person as the first priority or is it the society with the political system on the top? Human beings are for the political system are subsidiary.

- Also, it seems to lead nation, is easier with authoritarian society.
A reason is for me more the unsureness feeling in a pluralism age and the situation of global progress. There is nothing, what could promise sureness. Tradition and the own way of life seems to be mixed with traditions, faith and culture normativism from others of the whole world. All values are fluent. For anxious persons the full catastrophically situation. To get stability in the live, means go back to the roots, like to see the world in black and white like a young child. It means “god is in heaven, devil is down on the earth”, and all what contradicts is a temptation from the devil. Every unsure person who leaves this live-concept will become more and more unsure.
This “principial idea” concerns political system, believe community of faith and society’s as well. (Putin and his government/ meanwhile as well a great part of USA, China/Orthodox Church…).



- Yes, we see really only a small piece of reality. And yes, mass media do much that it will increase the unsureness of what we can believe of information we forced. But was this not in ever age a problem for in speciality people with humble beginnings? We all are influenced. So, our thinking and behaviour is not objective. And what does it mean? Perhaps the I idea we could think objectively is a wrong assumption?
My idea is, this is the fact of all influences from outside my mind. Inside perhaps there is a system who are able to prove this knowledge. Like a few through a milky window. My reflection on torched knowledge from outside, will scratch on this milky window. So, partly I can see more truth. Some people sign it conscience (from our creator/God?). The conclusion for me: I

Hi Rudi - and thank you for posting such inspiring and thoughtful comments. (This is why you have been my life and work mentor for most of my life!) I share your dream, and some of your ideas about why the dream is so difficult to fulfil.

One of the reasons, I think, is that the same dynamics I see 'out there' also exist within me. As human beings, we are so full of passions, blind spots, illusions, tensions and contradictions - and these get played out on the world stage too.

That's one of the reasons why, for me, Jesus is so important - and I don't mean in some superficial religious way. I'm unable to resolve these things alone and only he gives me the vision, love, hope and power to see and reach beyond myself.

The issue you raise of pluralism is an interesting one. I read an article recently by a political scientist who questioned whether democracy can survive in increasingly plural societies because, in his view, pluralism leads to unresolvable fragmentation.

I agree that increasing complexity can evoke anxiety and a regression to beliefs that try to create a greater sense of simplicity and safety. This is why, I believe, people sometimes choose 'strong leaders' or simplistic ideologies - to save them from anxiety.
