The Queen's Gambit

Like many others, I had an occasional watch-fest on Netflix during 2020. Amongst the gratuitous sex and violence famously attributed to James Bond there are some jewels and chess pieces telling a deeper story and inviting us to think. The Queen’s Gambit is surely one of these. 

It contains all the classic elements of The Hero’s Journey – Origin, Conditioning and Learning; Mistrusting and Falling before awakening to Self Realisation. Along the way our heroine, Beth Harmon, has her own ‘Dark Night of The Soul’. It is a journey we all make in our own way. The more seemingly insurmountable the challenge, the greater the achievement. Beyond Bond’s gratuitous behaviour we trust that the good guy will always solve the puzzle in time to save the world.

In an interesting twist on this time-honoured meme, the coronavirus crisis presents a seemingly insurmountable challenge to humanity. This time, instead of dispatching 007 to sort it out, we are called to an awakening of our Oneness so that collectively we can prevail against this peril. It seems that mastery of Spock’s 3-dimensional chess would probably be an asset in being able to thwart this enemy, but in truth the solution may be as simple as the child laughing at the Emperor with no clothes. 

Unusual in a democracy we are living in a time when all our media consumption is carefully controlled so that only one-sided presentations are made by the ‘experts’. Contrary views are censored lest they incite thought or debate and risk harming the innocent. This is nanny-state gone nuts. Even when career professionals like Gupta, Kulldorff and Bhattacharya present the highly credible alternative of ‘Focused Protection’ of vulnerable communities our Secretary of State for Health and Social Care lambasts them at Westminster for daring to speak truth to power. 

But what if the blatant lies were merely a ruse to draw our attention from the several pronged attack that every great chess-player plans? What if Catherine Austin-Fitts has nailed it? She points to the seemingly unrelated 5G installations and Cloud developments by Telecomms companies, the ‘Injections’ being prepared by Big Pharma, Operation Warp Speed being undertaken by the military – (20,000 geostationary satellites for global surveillance), constant propaganda barrage from Mainstream Media and Crypto-Currency developments being introduced by the Bankers to usher in the ‘Cashless Society’. 

Like every Grand Master’s game the trap is set move by move. During 2020 the world walked into it, but the door has not yet closed. Grand Masters know their game and it’s unlikely they could be defeated in a head on encounter. Our best strategy is simply not to play their game. Rather we might ‘row past the rock of the sirens’ as in Homer’s Orpheus story as we follow a sweeter song and choose to create a world of opportunity, love and fairness, rich in culture, freedom and respect. It won’t give the ultimate victory sought by the globalist elites but with a new rulebook the 99% can lead a decent life. We need 3.5 Billion Jane and James Bonds to save us. This is a suspenseful cliffhanger of a world. 

Beth Harmon is a fictional character but chess is a real game; calculating and cold at the top. Never have the stakes been higher. Matt Hancock has been quick to learn the rules of fiction:- ‘Give your lies stupendous proportions and never let the facts get in the way of a good story’.
