• Politico: Pentagon Wades Into Political Minefield In Hunt For “Extremists”

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 24th 2021 11:21am EST

    This 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 […]

  • Jimmy Dore Goes Off On Tucker Carlson Tonight

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 23rd 2021 9:27pm EST

    YES. This trick is getting harder and harder to ignore. Just look at Axios where they are doing it right now in between all the J.P. Morgan ads on “racial equity” and “systemic racism.” There is a reason this is being pushed so hard. Who is pushing this shit? It is oligarchs and the PMC […]

  • The Atlantic: The Government Needs To Find Big Tech a New Business Model

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 23rd 2021 1:25pm EST

    BOOM! This is exactly what is needed to rein in Big Tech. Just as we don’t have creepy hall monitors invading privacy and opening letters, blacklisting people from using the Post Office, monitoring and intervening in phone calls to deplatform other Americans from having conversations, applying an arbitrary and politically charged litmus test to determine […]

    The good news keeps rolling in. Gallup: “This year’s subdued national satisfaction ratings mask sharp partisan differences.

  • The Brats Are Coming

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 15th 2021 1:09pm EST

    We’re counting on them. They are highly skilled in the arts of aggravating, alienating and tormenting everyone around them, talking about themselves and virtue signaling on social media. We’re going to paint a gigantic political bullseye on them. Nothing is more unifying than shared hatred of these people. New York Times: “What happened in Peru, […]

  • Rolling Stone: Meet The Undercover Anti-Fascists

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 14th 2021 7:39pm EST

    You’re a survivor. America survived Ricky Vaughn’s memes and Baked Alaska’s attack on democracy. The healing can begin now. We’ve spent the last four years living through literal “fascism.” We barely survived the blowhard who sat in the White House for four years tweeting about how unfairly he was being treated by the media while […]

  • Glenn Greenwald: The Journalistic Tattletale and Censorship Industry Suffers Several Well-Deserved Blows

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 13th 2021 2:20pm EST

    I won’t pretend to understand these people. They are humorless, hypersensitive, unfriendly middle class scolds and hall monitors who are obsessed with policing thoughts and words. They are the enemy of all independent minded people. These people are massive control freaks who are obsessed with micromanaging things which ultimately don’t matter as opposed to practical […]

    Occidental Dissent - Feb 12th 2021 12:14pm EST

    I’ve never been to California. I have no plans of going anytime soon.

    The Left used to be funny. I’ve noticed this has changed since the rise of wokeness. They’re not funny anymore.
