    Occidental Dissent - Oct 5th 2020 9:55am EDT

    Editor’s Note: This is a work in progress. When did our age begin? What distinguishes Modern America from Victorian America? The transition between the two began in the 1910s, World War I was the rupture and was complete by the Roaring Twenties. The Lost Generation was the first Modern generation. On one side of this […]

  • Star Trek: Picard Doesn’t Have a Pulse

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 13th 2020 2:00pm EST

    I was willing to give Star Trek: Picard a chance. I thought it was great that some of the old characters were coming back. I had hoped that CBS and the producers would have learned their lesson from Star Trek: Discovery. Above all else, it was a relief to finally be done with the Dawson’s […]

    If you were wondering if Star Trek: Picard was going to be any different than Star Trek: Discovery, the answer is no. Variety: “In a way, the world of ‘Next Generation’ had been too perfect and too protected,” he says. “It was the Enterprise. It was a safe world of respect and communication and care […]

  • Marvel Movies Will Soon Include Gay and Transgender Characters

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 2nd 2020 12:02pm EST

    The first black superhero … The first deaf superhero … The first gay superhero … The first Asian-American superhero … The first transgender superhero … Such is the liberal project which is about novelty seeking, subverting norms and social hierarchies and mainstreaming perversion in order to extend the boundaries of freedom and equality. This ideal […]

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 12th 2019 11:55am EST

    Editor’s Note: I’m not interested in the new Ghostbusters movie. This does appear to be a step back from wokeness though. See also the upcoming release of Star Trek: Picard after the Star Trek: Discovery bombed. Now watching:
