COMMENT

Gordon Campbell: On The Government’s Stubborn Refusal To Invest For Growth

The coalition government is trying to attract foreign investment to generate economic growth, while cutting back drastically on its own investment in our economy.

Binoy Kampmark: Aggrieved Speculation - The Trump Illness Hypothesis

The MAGA philosophy has its dangers and problems, but the mental illness of its chief proponent is not one of them. Trump is most certainly a disturbed human being, infantilised, insecure, and prone to hazes of narcissism, but he can hardly be dismissed as a person without certain cerebral functions.

Keith Rankin: Dodgy Democracy, The Fiscal Double Standard, And The Application Of The Domino Theory To Ukraine

The Russia-Ukraine War is a mucky border conflict between two countries with a long & intertwined shared history, & with more than enough 'stirring of the pot' from outside to convert a regional security dispute into an existential global security threat. It can be settled with a deal that reflects the military situation, rather than by democratically compromised sabre-rattling from Western Europe

Gordon Campbell: On Why GP Practices Are In Crisis

The rising cost of going to the doctor means that many of those “Kiwis” cannot afford to get timely care.

Ramzy Baroud: From Gaza To Syria - The Unyielding Reality Of Israeli Settler Colonialism

Settler colonialism can never be resolved through creative solutions. A settler colonial state ceases to exist, and a settler colonial society ceases to function if territorial expansion is not a permanent state of affairs.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: The Polycrisis, Knowledge, And AI

The real and present danger of AI is that it will destroy the brain’s potential for insight if we continue to give primacy to the intellect and knowledge, much less merge with these thought machines we’ve created in our own image.
