Colin Woodard: There’s Still a Shared American Story, and JD Vance’s Blood-and-Soil Vision Isn’t It
Occidental Dissent - Nov 3rd 2025 9:40am ESTI’ve always enjoyed Colin Woodard’s work, not because I agree with his liberal vision of American civic identity, but because at least he understands how far back this debate goes. It gets tiresome having to deal with people who believe America was fine until the Jews came here and ruined it. New York Times: “There […]

White Advocacy vs. White Nationalism
Counter Currents - Jan 24th 2024 2:05pm EST 2,299 words If there is a friendly divide within the dissident Right, it might very well be between White Nationalists and white advocates. The difference between the two groups should be plain: the former seek separation and self-determination, and the latter political advocacy in a multiracial country. Neither group has much cause to squabble, especially […]
The End of the Optics War
Counter Currents - Dec 20th 2023 10:38pm EST 2,868 words I haven’t talked about movement drama in a while. That’s because there hasn’t been much drama in a while. But when it rains, it pours.

White Nationalism and George Lincoln Rockwell
Occidental Dissent - Dec 2nd 2022 10:33am ESTI don’t have the time this morning to sit down and write a big article on the subject. This has been on my mind though for the past few months.

Ben Rhodes: This Is No Time for Passive Patriotism
Occidental Dissent - Jan 28th 2022 11:24am ESTBen Rhodes, who was Barack Obama’s speechwriter, thinks that his side lacks a compelling story to tell about American national identity. The Atlantic: “Every nation is a story. It’s almost never a simple one, and the story’s meaning is usually contested.

The Bulwark: So We’re Headed to ‘Civil War’ Soon?
Occidental Dissent - Oct 14th 2021 3:12pm EDTActually, I agree with Glenn Beck. If you look at what has happened to America since the end of the Victorian era, the overall trend is the loss of cultural cohesion.

This country revolves around […]
