  • Facebook Shuts Down Steve Bannon’s “Stop The Steal Grift

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 10th 2020 12:07pm EST

    F**k this guy. F**k his fake populism too. The Washington Post: “Facebook took down a widespread network of pages tied to President Trump’s former chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon for pushing misinformation about voter fraud and delegitimizing election results. Bannon’s page also incurred penalties, including not being allowed to post content, but was not removed […]

  • No, Trump Didn’t Win ‘The Largest Share Of Non-White Voters Of Any Republican In 60 Years’

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 10th 2020 12:28am EST

    DEBUNKED. This is a dumb meme going around. Donald Trump tried to implement the 2012 GOP autopsy in his 2020 campaign. His campaign strategy and messaging focused exclusively on pandering to blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Jews and LGBTs. In 2016, he ran as a populist and won the Rust Belt. In 2020, he ran as a […]

  • 2020 Autopsy: North Dakota Edition

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 9th 2020 8:44pm EST

    The 2020 election was rigged against Trump in North Dakota. 2016 Election Donald Trump – 216,794 (62.96%) Hillary Clinton – 93,758 (27.23%) Gary Johnson – 21,434 (6.22%) In the 2016 election, Trump beat Hillary Clinton by a 35.73% margin. 2020 Election Donald Trump – 235,489 – (65.5%) Joe Biden – 114,864 (31.9%) Jo Jorgensen – […]

  • The Racist Center

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 9th 2020 2:30pm EST

    I’m increasingly convinced of this. Ethnocentric Whites are politically and culturally divided and the infighting in the “Dissident Right” reflects these divisions. Some people are not conservative Republicans. They are not even on the Right. They are moderates, populists and Independents in the Center of the electorate. Independents score higher than Republicans on feelings of […]

  • The Reality Check Election

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 9th 2020 12:11pm EST

    Michael Brendan Dougherty is trying to pigeonhole the “racist Right” as a bunch of dopes who are motivated by white resentment and who are satisfied with dog whistles. National Review: “The anti-racist Left and the racist Right made similar errors: Those arguing that Trump’s embrace of the white working class would result only in the […]

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 9th 2020 12:58am EST

    Editor’s Note: This is a work in progress. I told you so. The ABC News exit polls are out now. ABC News: Compare to the 2016 election: In Wisconsin, the electorate was 86% White in 2016 and 2020. In Michigan, the electorate was 75% White in 2016 and 80% White in 2020. In Pennsylvania, the […]

  • JARED!

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 7th 2020 4:29pm EST

    Jared Kushner is one of the reasons why I didn’t support Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign. The same is true of Sheldon Adelson. I couldn’t vote for four more years of Jared and Sheldon. Daily Mail: “Donald Trump‘s team has begun the blame game for the president’s failed re-election bid and the early fire is aimed […]

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 5th 2020 2:07pm EST

    Editor’s Note: This is a work in progress. Do you see this map? This is why Donald Trump was elected president in 2016. Lets take a look at New England. Maine and New Hampshire were called early for Joe Biden in 2016. These early calls were an early sign that Blumpf was in trouble. He […]

  • Election 2020 Fallout

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 4th 2020 4:38pm EST

    This is so personally devastating to me: the black male vote for Trump INCREASED from 13% in 2016 to 18% this year.

  • Final Thoughts

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 1st 2020 1:17pm EST

    I’m not voting in the 2020 election. I’ve always been an independent moderate and populist nationalist voter. I have never been a conservative or a Republican. In the 2000 and 2004 elections, I voted for Al Gore and John Kerry out of hatred of George W. Bush. In the 2008 and 2012 elections, I voted […]

    This is what I assume will happen on Tuesday.

  • The GOP In 2021

    Occidental Dissent - Oct 30th 2020 8:19pm EDT

    Last year, I predicted that Donald Trump would lose the 2020 election and that Conservatism, Inc. would collapse and would lose its ability to corral these people. I didn’t see COVID or the George Floyd riots coming which have greatly accelerated the changes that I expected to take place. The Washington Post: “If you want […]

  • 38 Times President Trump Has Condemned Racism and White Supremacy

    Occidental Dissent - Oct 29th 2020 9:58am EDT

    This is the closing argument of the 2020 campaign. The people who are running Donald Trump’s campaign into the ground are putting out videos of Trump denouncing “racism” and “white supremacy.” They have him endorsing things like the American Dream Plan for Hispanic America and the Platinum Plan for Black America. They have him campaigning […]

  • Anonymous Goes Public

    Occidental Dissent - Oct 28th 2020 4:55pm EDT

    So, it turns out that “Anonymous” was Miles Taylor, who worked as chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security under Kirstjen Nielsen from 2017 to 2019, who boasted about subverting Trump’s immigration agenda from the inside on behalf of “the Resistance.” New York Times: “WASHINGTON — Miles Taylor, the former chief of staff […]

    When this nightmare is over, we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. It would erase Trump’s lies, comfort those who have been harmed by his hatefulness, and name every official, politician, executive, and media mogul whose greed and cowardice enabled this catastrophe.— Robert Reich (@RBReich) October 17, 2020 Joshua Zeitz in Politico Magazine today: “Go […]

  • The Center Right Is Worthless

    Occidental Dissent - Oct 22nd 2020 1:54pm EDT

    Why should anyone support conservative liberalism? As I said in the previous article, it only wields power to advance its anti-state, small government, pro-business, libertarian, free market ideology. Basically, if you vote for these people, what you are going to get is cultural libertarianism. They’re not interested in representing you or doing anything for you. […]

  • Ben Sasse Slams Donald Trump For Flirting With White Supremacy

    Occidental Dissent - Oct 15th 2020 10:30pm EDT

    I’m not sure what else Trump can do. He has disavowed “white supremacy” at least three times this month and promised blacks $500 billion dollars to get them to vote for him. How many times does he have to condemn “white supremacy” to satisfy Ben Sasse?
