• Greg Gutfeld: NPR’s Emoji Issue

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 11th 2022 11:00am EST

    It has gotten to the point where I am laughing at Greg Gutfeld’s content. I had the same realization yesterday. As a White male, have I offended any BIPOC people by using the yellow thumbs up emoji?

  • Politico Playbook: Democrats Try Course Correction In California

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 11th 2022 10:48am EST

    Funny. Ronald Brownstein was just arguing this morning that this crap is somehow inevitable. And yet, we hear in the Playbook that Democrats are retreating from it because it is too toxic for San Francisco. Politico Playbook:

  • NPR: What Skin Color Emoji Should You Use?

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 10th 2022 3:10pm EST

    Some white people may choose ? because it feels neutral — but some academics argue opting out of ?? signals a lack of awareness about white privilege, akin to society associating whiteness with being raceless.https://t.co/9g3rochT0K — NPR (@NPR) February 9, 2022 I didn’t know there were skin color emojis!

  • Washington Post: The Fight Isn’t Over Whether America Will Be a Democracy, But What Kind of Democracy

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 10th 2022 10:26am EST

    The banner is a little edgier than usual this morning. I thought it was an amusing way of illustrating though what we think the modern Democratic Party is all about. Woke progressivism has become the governing ideology of the new Democratic Party. The central truth of woke progressivism is that Black people (now capitalized) ought […]

  • Secular Talk: Kyle Discovers Real Reason His Rogan Episode Was Pulled

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 9th 2022 5:33pm EST

    Kyle Kulinski has discovered the real reason his Joe Rogan episode was pulled by Spotify. It is because Joe Rogan quoted Ye using the word “nigga” on the show and was put under such tremendous pressure by progressive activists and caved.

  • Poll Watch: Liberals’ Losing Battle For American Minds

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 9th 2022 12:25pm EST

    It sounds ridiculous. The Left has been winning culture war battles for so long that it is hard to imagine the tide ever turning. As Bill Maher said though, the Left has changed … in recent years, it has become a dour, sanctimonious, authoritarian, intolerant and hysterical place to be defined by Millennial SJWs. TIPP: […]

  • Joe Rogan Was Cucked Into Censoring Himself

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 7th 2022 9:36am EST

    We’ve defended Joe Rogan here. This is solely because we hate the woke mob which is out to get him though. We also believe he should be left alone as a creator to do his show. Otherwise, we agree that Rogan spreads a lot of misinformation on his show, as when he recently suggested that […]

  • The Leftist Case For Joe Rogan Uncensored

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 6th 2022 1:56pm EST

    Why do the “white supremacists” support Joe Rogan? Obviously, it is not because the “white supremacists” agree with everything he says. It is because the “illiberals” and “authoritarians” think he should be free to speak his mind and that his voice shouldn’t be silenced and because we generally don’t get worked up into a rage […]

  • Spotify Pulls More Joe Rogan Episodes

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 5th 2022 11:16pm EST

    CW: Multiple clips of Joe Rogan saying the N-word. This is who the right is defending. pic.twitter.com/qqaB12dFYz — PatriotTakes ?? (@patriottakes) January 30, 2022 Joe Rogan on hoping to see Planet of the Apes in a “good neighborhood:” “We walked in to Planet of the Apes. We walked into Africa, dude. We walked in the […]

  • New York Times: Ugly Freedoms

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 5th 2022 12:07pm EST

    The New York Times published a very important new op-ed this morning which is highly relevant to our current debates about so-called “free speech” and the rights of non-experts. There are beautiful freedoms and ugly freedoms. The ability of someone like Donald Trump to reach a mass audience on social media is an ugly freedom. […]

  • Breaking Points: White House Pushes Spotify To Censor Joe Rogan

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 4th 2022 12:58pm EST

    Once again, it is a funhouse mirror world. The people who are jumping up and down and stomping their feet and having a tantrum and demanding censorship are the “liberals.” The people whose instinct is to say calm down, relax, get a grip and let him speak are the “authoritarians.” It is not the White […]

  • Tucker Carlson: Airbnb Banned White Nationalist Michelle Malkin

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 4th 2022 11:05am EST

    Tucker Carlson calls Airbnb “an aggressive agent of authoritarian social change” for banning individuals associated with hate groupshttps://t.co/AvIUs1YZIt pic.twitter.com/nrbquPfHUy — nikki mccann ramírez (@NikkiMcR) February 4, 2022 I’m probably banned too.

  • Chris Hayes: The Mississippi Way

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 4th 2022 9:52am EST

    I watched this clip several times last night. As far as I can tell, there are three points of views here: 1. Sen. Roger Wicker thinks it is ironic that Joe Biden is appointing a black woman to the Supreme Court since affirmative action is on the chopping block again at the Supreme Court and […]

  • Tucker Carlson: Censor Rogan!

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 3rd 2022 9:03am EST

    Liberalism is dead. Woke progressivism is the new governing ideology of the Democratic Party. The “illiberal Right” devotes much of its time these days to pointing out how liberal institutions like the New York Times or The Atlantic were conquered from within by young leftists.

  • Apple Releases Pregnant Man Emoji

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 1st 2022 10:43am EST

    Everyone has been laughing at this. If George Fitzhugh were alive today, he would feel vindicated. The Sun: “Apple’s recent update introduces a number of new emojis- including the one of a pregnant man that has divided opinion. Among the new batch of emojis are also a gender-neutral pregnant person and one bearing a crown. The […]

  • Team Blue Breaks Their Brains Over Joe Rogan

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 31st 2022 11:13am EST

    Liberalism is dead. It was killed by these people. Personally, I don’t care that Joe Rogan has a podcast. I don’t care that he has conversations with people like Alex Jones or Alex Berenson and shares his takes on his own platform. I don’t agree with all of his takes which do include misinformation. I […]

  • Poll Watch: Joe Biden’s Vow To Nominate a Black Woman To Supreme Court Is Deeply Unpopular

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 30th 2022 2:13pm EST

    The public strongly disagrees with Elie Mystal on this. No one should be disqualified from consideration on the basis of Wokeism. ABC News: “During the spring 2020 presidential primaries, days before his set of big wins on Super Tuesday, Biden pledged to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court, if elected. Now, with […]

  • Students Value Free Speech, But Feel Theirs Is Threatened

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 30th 2022 1:40pm EST

    The president has already been canceled. Members of Congress have been canceled. The woke mob is currently trying to cancel Joe Rogan who has the largest media platform in the country over “misinformation.” If Trump and Rogan can be canceled, no one is safe. Note: Thomas Main would say that illiberalism is a tiny problem […]

  • Tim Pool: The GOP Fears Being Called Racist

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 29th 2022 11:35am EST

    Tim Pool, the Boomer Whisperer, is correct about this. The GOP acts like the “mainstream media” still exists. They act like their voters care about the norms. They act like “journalists” are still taken seriously by their base. It is a reflexive reaction to punches that may have landed thirty years ago. Joe Biden went […]

  • MSNBC: Fighting Over “Latinx” and White Discomfort

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 28th 2022 11:33pm EST

    As James Carville said, this is how they are perceived. This is who they are.

  • Stephen Breyer To Retire From Supreme Court

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 26th 2022 1:59pm EST

    We don’t who will replace him. All we know is that the pick will be a black woman. Note: This was one of the easiest predictions.

  • Jonathan Capehart: What Can You Do?

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 25th 2022 8:32am EST

    As Charles Murray said, these people are suicidal. They are going to squander the precarious position that they inherited.

  • Joe Biden: “Whose Side Are You On?”

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 17th 2022 11:23am EST

    The choice is clear. Whose side are you on? You’re either with Joe Biden, John Lewis, MLK III, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Ibram X. Kendi and “democracy” or with George Wallace, Bull Connor, Jefferson Davis, Ben Sasse, Mitt Romney, the Republican Party and all of the “domestic enemies” who oppose “our democracy.”

  • Martin Luther King III: Sinema ‘Siding With Legacy Of Bull Connor’

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 14th 2022 5:53pm EST

    Speaking of inflation … Huffington Post: “Martin Luther King III blasted Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) after her Thursday speech announcing that she wouldn’t support changes to Senate rules to pass Democrats’ major voting rights bills, accusing the Arizona lawmaker of “siding with the legacy” of prominent segregationists and white supremacists over that of his father, the late civil […]

  • The Washington Post: The Rise of a Pro-Democracy Media

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 7th 2022 11:07am EST

    Perry Bacon, Jr. is clearly excited about this. “Journalists” are rising to the occasion to defend “our democracy.” They are finally showing the “moral clarity” to reject “both sides-ism.” This could work! The Washington Post: “America’s news media is increasingly covering the growing radicalism of the Republican Party and its democracy-eroding behavior. That’s a welcome […]
