  • David French: The Lost Boys of the American Right

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 16th 2023 4:00pm EDT

    Editor’s Note: If you are wondering why I used the image of Anakin Skywalker above, it is because these people tend to be Star Wars nerds and Marvel fans and the idea of destroying them appeals to me. I saw this bitter salvo from David French when I was on the road at the Amren […]

  • Trump Indicted In Georgia

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 15th 2023 9:08am EDT

    Why should anyone be bored with our politics? Sure, Donald Trump is running for president again and has been indicted again (we have seen it three times before), but we are at the point where you can begin to feel the pull of the waterfall ahead. History is speeding up. The 3,000 foot drop into […]

  • Tabletmag: The Rise of the Alt-Right

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 11th 2023 10:45am EDT

    Editor’s Note: It has been six years since the torch march in Charlottesville. As a brand, the Alt-Right is dead. It has gone the way of White Nationalism which was itself a rebrand. Many of the most influential figures in the Alt-Right have completely imploded or flamed out like Richard Spencer and MILO. Some of […]

  • New York Times: Trump Charges Could Speed Moves To Censure or Impeach Biden

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 8th 2023 9:29am EDT

    Good morning. As I have repeatedly told friends in recent months, we are long past the red pilling stage or the activism stage. You don’t need to “wake people up” or go out and engage in activism. Putting a target on your back in our political climate is dangerous. We are now in the mass […]

  • The Case for Donald Trump In 2024

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 6th 2023 10:17pm EDT

    I’ve been watching public affairs on a macro level for decades. I’ve come to this conclusion in mid-2023. We in the US have two realistic options: 1) a national divorce; or 2) a civil war between nationalists and communists. If there’s a viable third option, please tell me. — J. M. Hill (@JMH12061951) August 6, […]

  • Harry Enten: The Chance of Trump Winning In 2024 Is Very Well

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 3rd 2023 10:21am EDT

    Trump is currently polling better than ever against Joe Biden in the general election and he only lost by a few thousand votes in the swing states which he should have lost decisively. CNN: Donald Trump is facing two indictments, with the potential for more. Political wisdom may have once suggested the former president’s bid for a […]

    “The esoteric watcher will notice that in Ken’s Kendom, both the Barbies and the Kens achieved eudaimonia. But in Barbie’s Barbie Land, the Barbies achieved happiness — not true eudaimonia — precisely because the Kens were reduced to a slave class.

  • David Frum: The First Great Crisis of a Trump Second Term

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 1st 2023 11:16am EDT

    Even if “Our Democracy” chooses to reelect Donald Trump as president in 2024 (a very real possibility in light of the RCP average), David Frum believes it “would settle nothing.” Democrats intend to move forward with taking out a sitting president through the legal process. The Atlantic: Both his supporters and and his opponents assume […]

  • Whatifalthist: Why America Will Have Its French Revolution

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 31st 2023 11:07am EDT

    Fair warning. I don’t agree with Whatifalthist on everything. I do agree with him though on some big picture things like historical cycles, cultural demography and where current trends are headed. Note: I have covered a lot of the same ground for over a decade here.

  • Justice Department Piles More Charges On Donald Trump

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 28th 2023 10:45am EDT

    This is interesting. I’m starting to get out of my writing slump. While Donald Trump ran for president in 2016 and 2020, we have never had a presidential election where the leading opposition candidate is facing spending the rest of his life in prison. This has also never happened before in a political atmosphere as […]

  • Poll Watch: Most Americans Favor Restrictions on False Information

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 25th 2023 11:45am EDT

    In related news, Democrats now believe that it is up to the government to determine what is true and false and to censor “misinformation” on the internet. Pew Research Center: 65% of Americans support tech companies moderating false information online and 55% support the U.S. government taking these steps. These shares have increased since 2018. […]

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 18th 2023 10:37am EDT

    2023 has simultaneously been the most boring year and the most exciting year for me since I started this website. The former president and the leading candidate for the Republican nomination is about to be indicted and arrested by his rival for the third time in less than six months. And yet, I am so […]

  • Rich Lowry: A Second Trump Administration Would Be Bonkers

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 21st 2023 8:41am EDT

    I’m currently leaning toward Trump. If the choice is between Joe Biden or Ron DeSantis or Donald Trump’s Revenge Tour, then a Trump victory is likely to produce maximum chaos and polarization. He drove me mad during his first term due to my expectations, but he ultimately did deliver on widening our national divisions. National […]

  • Politico: Trump Predicts Imminent Arrest, Calls For Protests

    It looks like the 2024 Republican primary might already be over.

  • DNC Condemns White Christian Nationalism

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 9th 2023 8:36am EST

    While anti-Whiteism is the glue the holds the Democratic Party together (White Democrats have negative feelings about their own race), there has been a noticeable uptick in singling out White Christians over the past two years, especially since the Dobbs decision ended Roe v. Wade. DNC: “DNC resolution condemning all forms of White Nationalism and […]
