As 2020 ends tomorrow, it seems the appropriate time to discuss the misappropriation of the term “security”, and the harm that false “security” causes.

On a cooperative or global level, when we attempt to secure ourselves by aligning with violent forces, we are creating a theater for combative measures and thus no harbor for peaceful security.
