Links

outsider insight bears no responsibility for the content of linked sites.

Power Dynamics

Blairwatch

Chronicling the Demise of the New Labour Project. With blogspot format this ite lets members contribute more damning evidence against this charlatan war criminal.

Bush Flash

Good comic relief. This is what the mainstream media might be broadcasting if we had real freedom of expression.

Can Do Better

Australian site, in line with my worldview, seeking to encourage ordinary people to engage themselves with the political processes that determine the course of our society. If sufficient numbers do so, this could make the necessary difference that will make it possible our society to turn back from the brink of the looming global environmental catastrophe which threatens our survival.

Common Dreams

Some good rational analysis from progressive America, but often conservative with a small c.

Counterpunch

Founded by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St Clair, Counterpunch challenges the institutional bias of much of the mainstream left. Don't expect to agree with everything, but learn to question assumptions and preconceptions.

Democracy Now!

While reflecting a classic American liberal left bias, this TV station with bulletins available online (RealPlayer) features alternative reports on the Middle East with regulat interviews with Robert Fisk, Dahr Jamail and Noam Chomsky.

From the Wilderness

Founded by Michael Ruppert, author of Crossing the Rubicon, this site inestigates events since September 11th, 2001 with a special focus on the intelligence and law enforcement agencies, surveillance, peak oil, US war plans and the crisis of humanity.

Global Public Media

Dedicated to Oil Depletion and its aftermath, this site features a wealth of reports, interviews and videos about the environmental and economic consequences of our over-reliance on a finite resource. Contributors include Richard Heinberg, author of The Party's Over and Power Down, petrochemical expert Colin Campbell and ecologist Paul Ehrlich.

International Campaign Against Coca Cola

There are undisputed reports that Coca-Cola bottling plant managers in Colombia, South America, allowed and encouraged paramilitary death squads to murder, torture and kidnap SINALTRAINAL leaders and members in an effort to crush their union. This is of course in addition to the harmful dietary and neurotic effects of Classic and Diet Coke on hundreds of millions of regular consumers worldwide.

Ionetics

Describes itself as unreliable and possibly off-topic, but methinks always to the point.

Justice4thepoor

Deadly caustic sarcastic occasionally-angry hot temperamental exhausted fed-up hate-the-media hate-the-politicians no-nonsense kind of general whatever Kebz feels like posting blog

Karma Bank Radio

It's hard to find two people who have sussed out the workings of our troubled world to such perfection. Great sense of humour too. Switch off the TV and tune in to this radio show!

Many Angry Gerbils

Another political Web log biting critically into the hypocrisy of the media and its cruise missle pseudo-lefties.

Medialens

MediaLens is a response to the unwillingness, or inability, of the mainstream media to tell the truth about the real causes and extent of many of the problems facing us, such as human rights abuses, poverty, pollution and climate change.

Oil Empire

This site explores various dimensions of the new resource wars, highlights contradictions and investigates claims and counterclaims. You'll need to scroll down for best bits. The web designer seems too keen on tables to present information.

Persistence of Vision

The online community for political discussion, an outgrowth from the Medialens message board, but permits debate about a wider range of topics.

Peter Fainton's Blog

Comment on current events and other matters of interest with an excellent piece on the Illusion of Democracy in countries like the UK.

This site brings together a wealth of movie clips (most in QuickTime, some in Windows Media and RealPlayer formats) with speeches and docuemntaries on 9/11 research, oil depletion and wars.

The Curmudgeon Blogspot

Updated regularly by Philip Challinor, this web log brings you closer to the future by following current trends to theirn logical conclusion.

The Zero Movement

Coca-Cola created The Zero Movement to promote their new artificially sweetened soda, Coke Zero. Taste, pollution and questionable nutrition are at the centre of Coke's business model. Thanks to companies like Coke, land is cleared and waste & pollution are created just to provide consumers with deceptively sweetened chilled beverages.

Wikipedia Encyclopaedia

A hypertext encyclopaedia that you can contribute to yourself, this site embodies the true spirit of the Internet, but is understandably and realistically open to abuse both by saboteurs and by vested corporate and state interests who seek to correct any unfavourable information or views, e.g. a link to this site's article on Open Source software (Reclaiming Word) was removed within 24 hours, but other contributions on AS and Schizophrenia articles have remained thus far intact. As a rule one does not delete contributions, but merely adds to an existing article with new correctly sourced information and perspectives. Long opinion pieces may be referenced but not included.

All in the Mind

Critical Psychiatry

A critical look at the practices of modern psychiatry, with input from many psychiatrists and a special focus on the real agenda behind the diagnosis of more personality disorders and the government-sponsored mental health agenda.

Mandy Lifeboats Ahoy

Insider view of the provision of mental health services in South East England replete with personal anecdotes.

NoMuzak

Tired of piped music? This site provides information and helps you to complain about this unpopular form of persecution. There is a section on dumbing down and links to other sympathetic sites.

Psych Watch

Dedicated to Documenting Psychiatrists Behaving Badly. Of all professions, psychiatrists seem to get into the most trouble. I have been collecting stories about psychiatric screwups for a while. Sadly, it has been disgustingly easy to do. View my collection. Check out the Factoids.

Spectrum Fairness

The emerging scene of AS-diagnosed people seeking to form virtual communities has given rise to classic forms of intimidation, quarrels and censorship. One may not agree with every dot or comma published on this site, but without it a marginalised group would be voiceless.
