  • Jay Leno Apologizes For Decades of Jokes

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 25th 2021 9:00am EDT

    Do you know what caused the Atlanta shooting? It was decades of old jokes that Jay Leno made about Asians. Variety: “Late-night host and comedian Jay Leno has issued an apology for a series of jokes told over his career targeting Asian communities. The apology comes after a nearly 15-year campaign from the activist group Media Action […]

  • Tucker Carlson Calls Out Sen. Tammy Duckworth’s Anti-White Racism

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 8:54pm EDT

    Tucker Carlson is delicately trying to uncuck the Republican Party. It took him a while to get to the point in his monologue tonight. He tossed the pitch to Matt Walsh who used the phrase “anti-white racism.” It is too bad the show doesn’t have a super chat feature because the audience wouldn’t have been […]

  • Rising: Sen. Tammy Duckworth Refuses To Vote To Confirm Any White Nominees

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 6:58pm EDT

    I wouldn’t vote to confirm any of these people either because I disagree with their politics. This is pretty racist though, right? Note: This is what Sen. Tim Scott meant when he said the Democratic Party is being devoured by “woke supremacy” in his recent op-ed in The Washington Post.

  • Poll: Republican Support For Gun Control Plummets After Atlanta and Boulder

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 5:14pm EDT

    I’m shocked. USA Today: “In the poll, taken in the wake of two mass shootings in the span of a week, 65% overall say gun laws should be stricter – a sizable majority but one that has fallen by 7 percentage points from a USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll taken in August 2019. The 54% support among Republicans two […]

  • The Argument: Is It Time To Cancel Cancel Culture?

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 2:43pm EDT

    I listened to the show. As I said in a recent article, political correctness or wokeness and the phenomena of cancel culture is a challenging issue because the two sides don’t share a common morality or culture.

  • Axios: Joe Biden Is Like FDR

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 1:24pm EDT

    I nearly fell out of my chair this morning when I saw this. Axios: “President Biden recently held an undisclosed East Room session with historians that included discussion of how big is too big — and how fast is too fast — to jam through once-in-a-lifetime historic changes to America. … Presidential historian Michael Beschloss told […]

  • Poll: Democrats Are Losing On Immigration

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 12:12pm EDT

    The Democrats have come up with a winning strategy for the 2022 midterms. The strategy is to allow the Mexican border to collapse so that Joe can become Angela Merkel in his first 100 days. Yahoo News: “Americans’ support for providing a pathway to citizenship has plummeted since President Joe Biden took office in January […]

  • Is There Still A Center?

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 11:30am EDT

    I reject the term “far right.” Obviously, I consider myself a centrist, a moderate, an economic populist, a nationalist, a social conservative and an advocate of restraint and non-intervention in foreign policy. I’m an Independent voter. This is the perspective that I have always written from on this blog. New York Times: “Does Joe Biden’s […]

  • The Corporate Media Is Anti-White and Anti-Christian

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 9:59am EDT

    Rod Dreher makes a good point. TAC: “Here is what we are not seeing from the media: rash speculation about whether Islam drove him to murder, or whether Trump Derangement Syndrome had anything to do with this attack. All ten of Ahmad Alissa’s victims are white. We are seeing no speculation as to whether or […]

  • Poll: FOX News Audience Leans Multiracial and Working Class

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 24th 2021 8:44am EDT

    This is interesting. As David Shor has explained, Whites are intensely polarized. Virtually all White libs are Democrats and virtually all White conservatives are Republicans. White moderates are cross-pressured. Blacks, Hispanics and Asians are also divided by values and ideology. There are black libs, black moderates and black conservatives. The difference is that non-White voters […]

  • The Bulwark: Against The Gun Fetishists

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 23rd 2021 10:19pm EDT

    True Conservatism is about red flag laws now.

  • Politico: DHS Looking At Tracking Travel Of “Domestic Extremists”

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 23rd 2021 9:32pm EDT

    After allowing the Mexican border to collapse, Alejandro N. Mayorkas’s DHS is considering “monitoring the travel of domestic extremists” and “expanding its use of the No Fly List.” Politico: “The Department of Homeland Security is considering monitoring the travel of domestic extremists and expanding its use of the No Fly List, law enforcement sources told […]

  • Rising: Joe Biden Isn’t Bringing Us Social Democracy

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 23rd 2021 3:26pm EDT

    I’ve already shared my thoughts on this issue. From my perspective, it is specifically the race and culture war rhetoric of the Democrats that is the problem. In the last week, Joe Biden has alternated between selling his COVID relief bill while pushing the Democrat narrative that the Atlanta shooting was about “white supremacy,” presiding […]

  • Tucker Carlson Grills Gov. Kristi Noem For Vetoing Transgender Sports Bill

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 23rd 2021 1:55pm EDT

  • Joe Biden Calls For Assault Weapons Ban After Mass Shooting In Boulder

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 23rd 2021 1:22pm EDT

    BIDEN: “We can ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines in this country once again. I got that done when I was a senator. It passed, it was the law for the longest time and it brought down these mass killings. We should do it again.” pic.twitter.com/mhZ4ANbhT3 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) March 23, 2021 BREAKING: The suspect […]

  • Five Thirty Eight: How Cancel Culture Became An Issue For Young Republicans

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 7:10pm EDT

    Vote Red. We’re not those people … the brats. We’re not the ones who will come after you and “get” you for saying the wrong word, asking questions or having politically incorrect thoughts, etc. This could be a winning message for Republicans especially with older moderate voters who don’t understand the religion of woke supremacy. […]

  • Poll: 76% Of Americans Say Border Surge Is A Crisis

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 5:56pm EDT

    The other 24% are libtards. In his first 100 days, Joe has become Angela Merkel in 2015 thanks to stupid slogans from progressive activists. He accomplished one thing and then this stepped all over it.

  • Hillary Clinton Speaks With Council On Foreign Relations

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 5:07pm EDT

    This is why Trump was elected president. It had nothing to with a vast Russian conspiracy. Hillary is really just that irritating. After eight years of Barack Obama, there were a lot of Democrats who just couldn’t stomach another neoliberal establishment president. Back in 2016, Trump at least sounded like he was challenging the status […]

  • Rising: Why Democrats and Republicans Hate Each Other And Why It Will Get Much Worse

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 3:55pm EDT

    I enjoyed this segment. I’m like the polar opposite of our woke progressive overlords. I suppose that you could say that I am a college-educated knowledge worker too, but unlike those people I prefer to work remotely and carry on the culture war from rural Alabama where my family has lived since the 1830s. You […]

  • Morning Joe: President Biden “Faces Challenges” At The Southern Border

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 11:46am EDT

    The real challenge is coming from within the Democratic Party. Progressive activists believe that stupid slogans like “Abolish ICE” and “Defund the Police” should become national policy. It was these people who dragged the rest of the Democratic Party to the Far Left on immigration and crime. As a result, the border is now predictably […]

  • How People Think You Stop Bigotry

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 9:48am EDT

    The best part is that those who diagnose others with “bigotry” have zero tolerance for anyone who disagrees with their own opinions and like to destroy the lives of other people for the sport of doing so.

  • Washington Post: Substack’s Controversy Bigger Story

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 22nd 2021 12:59am EDT

    How big is the “far right” vote in 2021? The “far right” is now at least half of Trump voters. These people are also distinct from another 35% of Trump voters – the people who used to be the Republican base before the Trump presidency – who share the same view on political correctness/wokeness and […]

  • DHS Chief: Domestic Extremism Is “Single Greatest Terrorism-Related Threat” In America

    Occidental Dissent - Mar 21st 2021 6:51pm EDT

    The guy who has allowed the Mexican border to collapse to appease progressive activist groups who want to “Abolish ICE” was on ABC News this morning to explain that the single greatest terrorist threat facing the United States isn’t coming from the two million or so people heading toward our border. The real threat to […]
