  • Putin: West’s Global Political and Economic Dominance Ending

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 16th 2022 1:16pm EDT

    We’re being told that Putin has gone crazy. Maybe it is Twitter that has gone crazy though? Maybe it is Mike Pence who is living in a bygone age?

  • Tucker Carlson: Saudi Arabia Considers Ditching the Dollar for Chinese Oil Sales

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 16th 2022 11:00am EDT

    Is populism over? Is that what is happening here? It looks to me like Americans are unable to adjust their expectations to the brutal reality of America’s diminishing power. The world order that populists have long anticipated is being born. We’re just not willing to let go. We’re in denial about American decline. Powered by […]

  • Zelensky Addresses Congress

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 16th 2022 10:35am EDT

    It is worth noting here that Russia’s peace terms are 1.) Ukraine doesn’t join NATO and becomes a neutral country, 2.) recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea, 3.) recognition of the independence of the Donetsk and Luhansk republics and 4.) Ukraine ceases military action. Zelensky is asking us to go to war with Russia over […]

  • Poll Watch: Joe Biden’s Ukraine Bounce

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 16th 2022 10:14am EDT

    Before the war in Ukraine, the Republicans were drawing an effective contrast with Joe Biden on dozens of culture war issues and the economy, but now they have switched gears to out warmongering Joe and it has drowned out their previous message and is starting to register in the polls.

  • Breaking Points: Matt Taibbi: Orwell’s 1984 Comes True In U.S. Propaganda

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2022 12:20pm EDT

    We are “fascism.” We are “authoritarianism.” In light of our experience with the liars who led us into Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria, we don’t want to jump into a war with Russia over Donbas, a place which 99% of Americans know virtually nothing about and have never visited and which literally no one cared […]

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2022 11:50am EDT

    A question: Why is the U.S. Department of Defense giving daily press briefing on the military situation in Ukraine? The U.S. is not at war with Russia. The Ukrainian Defense Ministry is capable of holding its own press briefings. — Bill Roggio (@billroggio) March 15, 2022 Former Ukraine president Poroshenko is making wilder and wilder […]

  • Ukraine War Accelerates De-Dollarization

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2022 11:20am EDT

    Twitter isn’t paying much attention to this. We’re being told the whole world has united behind American foreign policy. This doesn’t include countries like Mexico which have wisely chosen to stay neutral. The seizure of Afghan and Russian assets, the weaponization of the dollar and the global financial system, the obsession with punishing evildoers first […]

  • ABC News: Germany To Disarm “Far Right Extremists,” Restricts Gun Access

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2022 10:44am EDT

    Vladimir Putin is an evil dictator. Unlike Russia, the West is something called the “Free World.” ABC News: “BERLIN — Germany’s top security officials announced a 10-point plan Tuesday to combat far-right extremism in the country that includes disarming some 1,500 suspected extremists and tightening background checks for those wanting to acquire guns.

  • TAC: Who’s Against The West?

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2022 8:45am EDT

    Bingo. TAC: “The ruling-class talking point du jour is that Russia’s war in Ukraine has dealt a crushing blow to Western populists. The populists, according to this view, tied their fate to Vladimir Putin’s: whether by praising him, calling for more genial relations with Moscow, turning a blind eye to Kremlin depravities, or some combination of […]

  • Zelensky To Deliver Virtual Address To Congress On Wednesday

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 14th 2022 11:26am EDT

    For someone who we are assured ISN’T a NATO puppet, Zelensky sure seems to spend all of his time appealing to his puppet masters in London, Brussels and Washington to ride to his rescue.

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 14th 2022 10:04am EDT

    Eric Kaufmann thinks we are losing the war. The latest CBS News poll shows strong support for imposing sanctions on Russia, implementing a No-Fly Zone and a willingness to pay higher gas prices.
