  • Rand Paul Rails Against COVID Relief Plans

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 19th 2020 1:31pm EST

    Sen. Rand Paul reflects the prevailing view of the Tea Party “deficit hawks” on COVID. The government should do nothing about the virus. No one should get a helping hand from the government either. That’s even worse. The real tragedy is the budget deficit, not the death and suffering. In China, which is where the […]

  • The Free Marketers

    Occidental Dissent - Nov 27th 2020 12:33pm EST

    Editor’s Note: This is a work in progress. As I have explained at length since the 2020 election, the American Right is composed of two core factions of conservative Republicans which have gone by various names in Pew typology surveys for the past thirty years like “Staunch Conservatives” and “Business Conservatives.” Both of these factions […]

  • The Quiet Death of Civic Nationalism

    Occidental Dissent - May 27th 2020 1:52pm EDT

    Looking back on the 2016 election, I supported Donald Trump mainly because I was persuaded by the argument that he was moving the Overton Window. The difference between nationalism and the liberal Right is based on how we perceive and value others in our communities and nation. Here is how I think about it: Libertarianism […]

  • Reopen NC Leader Husband “Willing To Kill” In Fight Against The Government

    Occidental Dissent - May 25th 2020 5:33pm EDT

    Molon Labe, Patriots! Charlotte Observer: “With the ReOpenNC group planning protests in five North Carolina cities on Memorial Day, the husband of one of the group’s founders published a Facebook video that says violence shouldn’t be ruled out.“Are we willing to kill people? Are we willing to lay our lives down? We have to say […]

  • Natural Conservatism vs. Conservative Liberalism

    Occidental Dissent - May 24th 2020 3:44pm EDT

    I don’t know why people are so traumatized by #YouAintBlack …I’ve been told #youaintgay ever since I started supporting @realDonaldTrump #gaysfortrump pic.twitter.com/bRjvUjvIBM— Lady Maga (@LadyMagaUSA) May 23, 2020 I’m a natural conservative.

  • A Day At The Park

    Occidental Dissent - May 17th 2020 3:50pm EDT

    I spent yesterday afternoon at our local National Wildlife Refuge. I loaded up my wife, son and dog and drove around the place to get out of the house. We got out at the observation towers and looked at the birds and the alligators. It was a beautiful day. I noticed lots of people were […]

  • Live and Let Die: Conservative Liberalism and Collective Goods

    Occidental Dissent - May 16th 2020 7:45pm EDT

    Describe your ideal world. In my ideal world, we would have lots of collective goods. A short list would include a healthy culture, a fair economy, a strong religion, a clean environment, excellent public health, strong borders, strong families and a positive sense of ethnic identity. We would be able to feel at home in […]

  • Trump Is Mobilizing The U.S. Military To Distribute a Coronavirus Vaccine

    Occidental Dissent - May 14th 2020 7:58pm EDT

    What is the Trump cult going to do now? GLORIOUS LEADER has said the military will vaccinate the public. Note: If Bill Gates said he had a vaccine, do you doubt for a second that Trump would embrace it to “get back to work”?

  • Ramzpaul: Communism Sucks

    Occidental Dissent - May 14th 2020 5:29pm EDT

    I think Ramzpaul is responding to us in this video. I did make that joke about how he was posing as John Galt in an empty restaurant in the Ozarks. The point was that Arkansas never had a stay-at-home order and the lockdowns followed the shift in public behavior. You can’t really “reopen the economy” […]

  • Alex Jones and Racist Liberalism

    Occidental Dissent - May 12th 2020 8:28pm EDT

    WATCH. Alex Jones has provided us with an excellent illustration of the racist liberalism meme that has been floating around Twitter for the past few weeks. In San Antonio, the progressive liberals who control the San Antonio City Council condemned the terms “Chinese Virus” and “Kung Fu virus.” In response, Alex Jones drove a tank […]

  • Conservatives Are Finally Rising Up

    Occidental Dissent - May 10th 2020 4:06pm EDT

    For decades, nationalists have argued about when the average American conservative will rise up. The answer was when FOX News told him to spread the coronavirus in his community. If nothing else, the coronavirus should settle this question once and for all. Nationalists have never been able to connect with these people because of their […]

  • Coronavirus, OnlyFans and Trump’s Immigration Executive Order

    Occidental Dissent - Apr 23rd 2020 1:15pm EDT

    I just watched Ramzpaul’s take on OnlyFans. It occurred to me that this video is an excellent example of Dissident Right thinking in general which mostly amounts to complaining about the poor choices that women are making in contemporary Western societies. In light of the coronavirus, I have been given new insight into why they […]

    Occidental Dissent - Apr 19th 2020 1:09am EDT

    LMAO. The Chinese communist bioweapon which has crippled the economy of Texas is the flu or the common cold. Infowars is the nexus of the conservative, libertarian and conspiracy theory world. Note: Strangely, it never occurs to these people that it is SARS, even though that is the disease this causes and the two viruses […]

  • Operation Gridlock

    Occidental Dissent - Apr 15th 2020 2:04pm EDT

    I’ve said from the beginning of outbreak in China in January that our culture is simply incapable of dealing with the coronavirus and we would be the hardest hit as a result. While this is winding down in China and New Zealand, the agony is just getting started here.

  • Coronavirus Tea Party Begins

    Occidental Dissent - Apr 14th 2020 3:28pm EDT

    I knew this was coming. It was inevitable that American conservatives and libertarians were going to start protesting the tyranny of NPIs (non-pharmaceutical interventions) such as lockdowns, quarantines, contact tracing through surveillance of data, segregating the healthy from the sick in the name of individual liberty. Libertarians had an axe to grind against the vaccines […]
