Treating everything as personal conflict is a dead end
Let’s focus on being honest, the most exhausting and destructive habit in activist and alternative tech spaces is the blinded reflex to turn disagreement into personal conflict. Someone challenges an idea, and it becomes an attack, names a pattern of behaviour, and suddenly it’s a vendetta. Someone points at structural problems and gets accused of targeting individuals. This is #stupidindividualism in its purest form, and it’s #nothingnew. It’s not only about difficult personalities […] -

The #encryptionist detour
Let’s look back to before the #Fediverse, to be honest about the last two decades of #openweb failure, for a long time we got pulled off the path. Not only by enemies, but by a mix of fear, fashion, and half-understood technical “solutions” that felt right to fearful people at the time. The rise of the dogmatic, blinded #encryptionist mindset came out of real conditions of mass surveillance revelations (Snowden era), common sense #neoliberal distrust of states and corporations and the […] -

In the era of the #deathcult, it has become common sense that mainstream culture produces its share of ugliness. We think this needs to be said plainly and often if we're to have any hope of pushing back against the fear that breeds hate. The growth of a #lifecult - a genuine alternative rooted in solidarity and care - isn't without its own complications, but it's a necessary counter-balance.

The Crew – Paths to Growth?
These people are a problem, the group of people who took over running the #Fediverse from us first wave crew. The problem is that they are liars - not out of malice, but in a blinded, dogmatic way. They arrived in this native #openweb movement already carrying this mindset, and it’s only deepened since. That doesn’t make them personally nasty, but it does make them dangerously incompetent. Why? Because they generate serious signal-to-noise problems, misallocate resources, misplace […] -

Identity politics was mad liberalism; culture war was bad liberalism. The liberal mess was that both were pushed onto the left to fight the #deathcult of neoliberalism - the same #neoliberalism that birthed the current hard shift to the right. The fucking liberals made this mess, and they're still whinging.

The End of the “Peace Dividend” and the Return of History
#Identitypolitics, is what happens when liberalism turns inward and fragments - call it mad liberalism. #Culturewar is what happens when that same liberalism hardens and lashes out - bad liberalism. Both look like opposites, but they come from the same place. The uncomfortable part is both were pushed onto the "left" as the way to fight #neoliberalism the very system that’s been tearing apart the social fabric for decades. Instead of building collective power, we pushed endless identity […]https://hamishcampbell.com/the-end-of-the-peace-dividend-and-the-return-of-history/

Actually solving things, and why this matters for #OMN
Activism has a reputation problem, in default #mainstreaming storytelling it’s painted as chaos, absence, or naive idealism. But if you look at what activists at best actually do, a different picture emerges: a long tradition of people working out, in practice, how to solve real problems together without relying on distant authority. And that’s the bit most people quietly skip. In most social/political movements, the hard questions - how we organise, decide, share resources, resolve […]https://hamishcampbell.com/actually-solving-things-and-why-this-matters-for-omn/

#OMN Grounding (the roots as a story)
#techchurn is the endless cycle of adopting new platforms, tools, and technologies - not because they solve any real problems, but because novelty is mistaken for progress. It burns community trust, institutional memory, and activist energy, while leaving the underlying #nastyfew power structures untouched.https://hamishcampbell.com/?s=techchurn The #OMN uses #stupidindividualism to describe the culturally manufactured habit of prioritising personal gain and self-interest over collective […]https://hamishcampbell.com/omn-grounding-the-roots-as-a-story/

In the #OMN hashtag story, #VC (Venture Capital) represents the flow of private speculative money into tech that captures and encloses what should be commons, replacing community-driven development with profit-driven extraction and turning potential tools for social good into instruments of the #deathcult.

In #OMN thinking, #traditionalmedia refers to the legacy thinking of broadcast and print institutions - TV, radio, newspapers - that present themselves as neutral but are structurally embedded in the same #neoliberal, #dotcons power systems they claim to objectively report on, making them megaphones for the #deathcult status quo rather than public interest journalism.
