Hamish Campbell<p><strong>Building #OGB is about power without #powerpolitics</strong></p> If we want the #openweb to survive and thrive, we need new forms of power, ones that can defend the community and challenge traditional power dynamics without falling into the traps of control, hierarchy, and co-option. The problem is clear: If we follow traditional power politics, which are built on control, manipulation, and exclusion, we will fail. We’ve seen this play out repeatedly, grassroots movements spark change, only to be then sold out and absorbed, neutralized by the […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/building-ogb-is-about-power-without-powerpolitics/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/building-og</span><span class="invisible">b-is-about-power-without-powerpolitics/</span></a></p>
WYM Mod<p>Louisiana's recent election results delivered a stunning blow to Republican Governor Jeff Landry, highlighting the overwhelming impact of Black voters. His proposed amendments faced fierce opposition, with nearly two-thirds rejecting them, signaling a shift in grassroots political power led by activists. This outcome serves as a potent reminder of community engagement in democratic processes, urging other states to learn from Louisiana’s triumph.

Hamish Campbell<p><strong>The #mainstreaming mess</strong></p> The #mainstreaming project is visibly failing. Worse, it is set to catastrophically fail over the next 30 years as #climatechaos escalates. The signs are everywhere: environmental collapse, political instability, and the hollow nature of mainstream culture. Yet, large parts of liberal society continue to bow to the #deathcult, a path of power, greed, and control over life, community, and sustainability. The end result we can now clearly see is the rule of big, dumb, ugly men with guns, a […] <p><a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/the-mainstreaming-mess/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hamishcampbell.com/the-mainstr</span><span class="invisible">eaming-mess/</span></a></p>

Over 600,000 people in #Washington are #uninsured, and many more are underinsured. Whole Washington is pushing for a single-payer #healthcare system to guarantee everyone access to care.

This year, two bills have the most support, with 11 Senate co-sponsors and 17 in the House. The #grassroots campaign is gaining momentum, especially after COVID revealed healthcare #inequality. The goal is to create a model for nationwide change. But it all depends on public pressure.
