Smiling-faced vileness: How enforced politeness becomes a weapon in grassroots paths
Too often, the ugliness we face in grassroots spaces wears a smile. It’s smiling-faced vileness: pleasant, agreeable individuals who wield control by blocking dissent, sanitizing movements under the guise of compromise, and maintaining the fake illusion of consensus. This is especially true in spaces overly tolerant of #NGO-style protocols - those bureaucratic, #fashionista postmodern traps that slowly erode the spark that makes real alternative communities thrive. From my work across […]https://hamishcampbell.com/smiling-vileness-ngo-control-is-the-death-of-any-radical-community-path/

Organising in the 21st Century: What’s Beneath the Surface?
Let’s talk about how we actually organise, in grassroots movements, in radical alternatives, and yes, even in the broader currents of #mainstreaming. Like a river system, the real action is often happening under the surface in tributaries and the undercurrents that shape how power flows and decisions get made. We can roughly split organising methods into two broad categories:The Horizontals (our grassroots tradition) is often celebrated, but rarely understood in practice. These organising […]https://hamishcampbell.com/organising-in-the-21st-century-whats-beneath-the-surface/

Activism for tech development and #FOSS paths
Open source was always political, the very idea of #FOSS was always a radical, left-leaning stance. Let’s be honest, you’re giving away your labour.Not for profit, not for career points,but because you believe we’d all be better off togetherif we stopped rewriting the same bits of code in isolationand started building commons instead of empires. That’s not apolitical - that’s solidarity. The #openweb was never just about better software.It was about building a world where […]https://hamishcampbell.com/activism-matters-for-tech-development-and-foss-paths/

#Fash much, #UK? #Preemptive arrests of #ClimateActivists, but it's perfectly fine to be a #FarRight #AntiImmigrant #Fascist?
Mass pre-emptive arrest of #ReclaimThePower #activists in #Yorkshire
Aug 8, 2024
22 held as police foil plot to bring #CompostToilets and #wheelchair track to #Drax #ClimateCamp
"UPDATE 13.30: the climate camp has now been cancelled
"Officers from the Metropolitan police this morning led local forces in a raid on Bentley Urban Farm in Doncaster, said eye witnesses. They arrested twenty two activists, who were preparing to transport infrastructure, sanitation and accessibility equipment to the upcoming climate camp at Drax power station.
"Crashing sounds were heard from outside the site as vehicles and equipment were impounded. The detainees were taken to York police station, where they are being held for conspiracy charges: in this case, to interfere with key national infrastructure at Drax Power Station in Selby between 8 and 13 August. Media repeated the police’s claim they are “not against protest but against crime”.
"This morning’s pre-emptive arrests, ahead of a peaceful protest, contrast sharply with the State’s failure to foil recent far right violence, said Reclaim the Power. 'Black and Brown communities are under attack with fire and bricks and the police have made the unfathomable decision to divert resources away from those communities to arrest 22 people taking equipment to make a peaceful climate protest safe and accessible', said the group in a statement."

A look at the recent history of radical grassroots activism
#ClimateCamp was a radical grassroots direct action movement to directly challenge to raise awareness about climate change and advocate for solutions to mitigate its effects. The movement was made up of a loosely organized network of activists who used a diversity of tactics to achieve their goals. Climate Camps were established in many countries. The movement reached its peak in the late 2000s and early 2010s and had a significant impact on public debate and government policy at the […]https://hamishcampbell.com/a-look-at-the-recent-history-of-radical-grassroots-activism/

Organiseing the 21st Century
Published Date 12/23/14 7:52 PM
Let’s look at how we acturly organise. Grassroots alternative streams (and #mainstreaming river with more complexity) can be split into a number of streams
* The horizontals
* The verticals
In the horizontals the organising is actually pretty opaque – lets look at the tributary’s
Organic consensus – This is rare and generally fleeting, a working example is the rainbow gathering, generally as the project settles into place organic consensus is […]
