Old habits die hard. Looking after your family has always been work carried out at close quarters. First your household, then your back yard, then your community perhaps through voting in the right people in your local elections. Now it is 2026. To protect your family, you need to grow another skill: Finding ways to help shape the narrative of the whole darn world. Because those who can hurt your children are just as likely to hurt them from afar, as they are from next door. Times have changed. If you want to protect your family in 2026, you need to find ways, however small, to help shape the world narrative, not just that of your household and local community. Don't be daunted. Go ahead and engage in world politics. Advocate for a better world order, now. Because good systems beat bad people. Accepting a world without rules, or even advocating for that, is doing the opposite of protecting your family. How do you engage in world politics? Start right here!
