The Hill: The Democrats Bid To Reclaim Economic Populism
Occidental Dissent - Mar 18th 2021 7:31pm EDTThese two things are mutually exclusive. Populism and wokeness are mortal enemies. They are irreconcilable. The Hill: “With the passage of President Biden’s coronavirus relief bill, Democrats are setting out to reclaim their populist birthright. And, they hope, reverse their losses among white working-class voters. The new law is being called “transformational” for a reason. It […]

Liberal Larry: Time To Rid The Country of the ULTIMATE Symbol of Racism
Occidental Dissent - Mar 17th 2021 3:19pm EDTLarry makes a good point. The “White House” is the ultimate symbol of white supremacy. It is offensive to BIPOC people. It ought to be renamed the Black House and reparations should be paid to Black people.
Democrats Can’t Duck The Culture War
Occidental Dissent - Mar 17th 2021 9:36am EDTThomas Edsall thinks that Joe Biden and the Democrats can somehow duck the culture war now after intentionally dialing it up a thousand notches over the past four years. New York Times: “The Biden administration appears to have adopted a two-pronged strategy to reduce the corrosive impact of hot-button social, cultural and racial issues: first […]
John Oliver Destroys Tucker Carlson
Occidental Dissent - Mar 15th 2021 2:19pm EDTLMAO. I don’t know. I think Tucker Carlson won this one. John Oliver only appeals to a certain kind of politically correct White liberal urban professional. I’ve been writing a lot more about these people. Tucker has started calling them woke professionals. It didn’t occur to me that … oh yeah, John Oliver is the […]

Stacey Abrams: Republicans Are Our “Domestic Enemies”
Occidental Dissent - Mar 14th 2021 3:04pm EDTThis seems a little … extreme. Note: I don’t see how election integrity laws does anything to stop True Cons voters in the Atlanta suburbs from voting for Democrats.

Insurrectionists Resume Attacks On Portland Federal Courthouse
Occidental Dissent - Mar 12th 2021 8:54pm ESTLook at ’em go! The brats are the literal embodiment of white privilege. Have you ever wondered how they manage to get away with this? If you went out and did something this, could you get away with it? Would your mom come out and support you engaging in criminal activity? Note: If they continue […]
President Biden Addresses The Nation
Occidental Dissent - Mar 11th 2021 8:40pm ESTI thought it was a great speech. Why couldn’t Donald Trump do that? There was nothing unreasonable in the speech. Joe asked people to wear masks as a courtesy and said he was making good on his promise to get the vaccine out to elderly people who are the most at risk. He took credit […]
President Biden Signs The American Rescue Plan
Occidental Dissent - Mar 11th 2021 3:18pm ESTThis is Joe’s moment. It is the culmination of 50 years in public life. This is the highwater mark and the peak of his political life when he does this one thing for us and signs a bill that pretty much everyone supports. Sure, it is probably all down hill from here after we receive […]

Jimmy Dore Responds To The Daily Beast Hit Piece
Occidental Dissent - Mar 10th 2021 5:32pm ESTAlexander Reid Ross is an “anarchist” and “anti-fascist” who works for some Soros and Koch funded astroturf operation called the “National Contagion Research Institute.” Note: Obviously, I largely agree with people like Jimmy Dore, Michael Tracey and Tulsi on economics and foreign policy because I have always been a populist voter. Hence, the “far right” […]
Bari Weiss: The Miseducation of America’s Elites
Occidental Dissent - Mar 10th 2021 4:08pm ESTEveryone hates these people. The polls don’t reflect the true level of brewing resentment because college educated White professionals lie about their true beliefs. No one has been driven further underground, feels more marginalized and more deeply resents the yoke of political correctness or wokeness than those who operate inside these institutions which are now […]
House Passes The PRO Act
Occidental Dissent - Mar 10th 2021 2:48pm ESTWhat do you think? This isn’t going anywhere because the “party of the working class” will unanimously oppose it like the $15 minimum wage or the $1,400 stimulus checks in the Senate. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce opposes the bill and elected Republicans out of instinct or habit or both seem to defer to the […]

Occidental Dissent - Mar 10th 2021 10:07am ESTBetween 2016 and 2020, Democrats saw a 43% decline in their support from conservative Hispanics.

The status quo has been extreme polarization and gridlock. White libs have been the dominant force in […]
House Holds Hearing On Media Disinformation
Occidental Dissent - Feb 24th 2021 7:33pm ESTWhy shouldn’t social media be censored? Why shouldn’t a political litmus test be imposed on the military? Why shouldn’t the federal government launch a domestic “War on Terror”? Why shouldn’t FOX News, OANN and Newsmax be deplatformed by cable companies? Note: BTW, Blumpf was the “fascist.”

Politico: Pentagon Wades Into Political Minefield In Hunt For “Extremists”
Occidental Dissent - Feb 24th 2021 11:21am ESTThis is exactly what the professional class has done. They’ve transformed the U.S. military into a petri dish for exotic social experiments in wokeness, transgenderism and rooting out “right-wing extremism” which as America’s geopolitical rivals well know is defined as anyone who resents and objects to this absurd ideology. Politico: “The Pentagon is launching an […]

Occidental Dissent - Feb 22nd 2021 10:20am ESTHave you ever wondered who is watching this shit on CNN and MSNBC? Who is losing their minds about “white supremacy”? Journalism.org: “There is little difference among Republicans in educational attainment across these news consumption groupings. That is not the case, however, among Democrats. Democrats who consistently used only news outlets with left-leaning audiences to […]
