  • Brion McClanahan: Do We Have Two American “Foundings”?

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 22nd 2023 11:01am EDT

    Brion McClanahan stirred the pot shortly before the Southern Cultural Center conference with his video on young conservatives. I brought it up again on The Political Cesspool. As I said this weekend, we are further removed in time from the Confederacy than even most Southern Nationalists imagine. Brion McClanahan is correct that identity was muted […]

  • New York Times: Elections Are Bad For Democracy

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 21st 2023 9:57am EDT

    Speaking of crumbling norms and the end of normal politics, I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I saw this op-ed in the New York Times this morning. New York Times: On the eve of the first debate of the 2024 presidential race, trust in government is rivaling historic lows. Officials have been working […]

  • Poll Watch: Biden and Trump In Dead Heat

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 19th 2023 10:08am EDT

    Four indictments. 91 federal and state charges. At last count, Trump is facing 717 years in prison. Meanwhile, the race is tied and Trump is leading Biden by 8 points with Independents in the latest Marist poll. He never polled this well in the 2020 election. I don’t think he polled this well against Hillary […]

  • 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 […]

  • Compact: Against the Eugenicons

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 11th 2023 2:23pm EDT

    Briefly: 1. I’m currently on the way to Amren with my wife. I don’t have the time to respond to this rant from Michael Lind. 2. Now that we are deep in a crisis era, the old taboos are crumbling and formerly marginalized ideas are gaining rapid acceptance. Everything is becoming more fluid so to […]

  • 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 […]

    Republicans are winning married men by 20 points, married women by 14 points, and unmarried men by 7 points. So who is keeping Democrats competitive?

  • Normal Times

    Occidental Dissent - Aug 7th 2023 1:30pm EDT

    We don’t live in normal times anymore. The world that I grew up in during the 1980s and 1990s has vanished. The world of the 2000s in which I formed my radical political views also now feels like a distant memory. Sure, there was Waco and Ruby Ridge, the Oklahoma City bombing, the impeachment of […]

  • 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.

    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 […]

    Donald Trump has an editorial in Newsweek.

    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.
