Hamish Campbell<p><strong>Struggling for a Real Alternative</strong></p> For the last 5 years conversations have been about, the #Fediverse, #Web3 and more recently the pushing of #mainstreaming into the #openweb native path. But despite this, the #fediverse is still a notable outlier in the digital landscape. This is in part because unlike the dominant tech trends, which emerge from Silicon Valley and the cross-Atlantic #dotcons agenda, the #fediverse is rooted in European ideals of decentralization, federation, and digital autonomy, it's a "native" #openweb […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/struggling-for-a-real-alternative/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/struggling-</span><span class="invisible">for-a-real-alternative/</span></a></p>
Hamish Campbell<p><strong>Journalism</strong></p> The media’s focus on Trump’s spectacle over substance pushes the current #mainstreaming path. By focusing on his contradictory statements, they keep the news cycle spinning around noise (words) rather than signal (policies and actions). This distraction benefits those on the #powerpolatics path, that is pushed with little scrutiny while the public and journalists remain fixated on the smoke and mirrors of the rhetorical outrage mess.The #KISS media’s role needs to be exposing the real […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/journalism/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">hamishcampbell.com/journalism/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
Hamish Campbell<p><strong>Trump and the tools of the old world order</strong></p> An example of this is The United States Agency for International Development (#USAID) which was presented as a humanitarian force for economic and social development worldwide. However, its origins and operations paint a different much darker path, of geopolitical manoeuvring and #neoliberal hegemony over the last 40 years. Now, with the hard shift to the right, USAID is being gutted, alongside other long-standing institutions of the U.S. "liberal" global order. Origins and the Cold War […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/trump-and-the-tools-of-the-old-world-order/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/trump-and-t</span><span class="invisible">he-tools-of-the-old-world-order/</span></a></p>
Hamish Campbell<p><strong>The left, right mess is on repeat</strong></p> This is at the heart of the contradictions and confusion in the political landscape today. The liberal and left muddle, where elements of economic populism are shared across ideological divides, is something we’ve seen before, especially in the 1930s, when fascist movements co-opted working-class grievances while pushing reactionary nationalism. #Bannon, like Röhm, plays a dangerous game by mobilizing working-class anger against neoliberal "elites" but steering it toward nationalism […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/the-left-right-mess-is-on-repeat/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/the-left-ri</span><span class="invisible">ght-mess-is-on-repeat/</span></a></p>

Hamish Campbell<p><strong>#openweb vs #closedweb is the Battle for the Internet</strong></p> It’s well past time to pick a side. For decades, the internet has been being enclosed. With most people's attention and thus freedom being in the hands of a #nastyfew people. The one's vast, decentralized network of commentary sites, blogs, forums has been corralled into a handful of paved prison yards controlled by the #dotcons. Every post, every 'friend,' every creative work is locked behind closed doors, and when push comes to shove as it is now, you will increasingly find that you […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/openweb-vs-closedweb-is-the-battle-for-the-internet/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/openweb-vs-</span><span class="invisible">closedweb-is-the-battle-for-the-internet/</span></a></p>
