  • “Mostly Peaceful Protests” Continue In Portland

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 22nd 2020 9:17pm EDT

    What do you think? Portland looks perfectly under control to me. Graphic: Shane V. Green, who is black, walked inside a NE Portland laundromat & used a sharp handsaw to attack two women. Responding police located him on a nearby street but the arrest was interrupted by Portlanders who screamed at & taunted officers, accusing […]

  • Woke Supremacy Is Surprisingly Unpopular

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 22nd 2020 2:10pm EDT

    Editor’s Note: This is a work in progress. The first data point comes from The Washington Post which shows a huge retreat in public support over the past month from the so-called “racial justice movement.” As the reaction to woke supremacy has gathered momentum, there has been a 15 point decline in support for seeing […]

  • An Intellectual History of “Woke” Left Modernism

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 22nd 2020 1:14am EDT

    Left Modernism is ubiquitous. It is synonymous with American mainstream culture which is a composite mix of liberalism, modernism and cosmopolitanism. It is essentially what we are against. Modernism rejects authority and tradition in favor of self-interest, self-expression, self-achievement, self-realization, self-fulfillment and self-advancement. It rejects the past in favor of the future. It is always […]

    Aristotle: Try not to burst out laughing. We thought this subject had been settled in the High Middle Ages in Peter Abelard’s time. The Rightwing Internet: Just noticed Google has removed several conservative websites from search results (at least on my end, in the UK). RedState, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Human Events, and more – all […]

  • Saying No To Critical Race Theory

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 21st 2020 3:19pm EDT

    This is a great overview of the genealogy of woke supremacy. I disagree with James Lindsay on three points though: 1.) First, I do not believe that race is a social construct that was invented in the 16th century to justify slavery and colonialism. Slavery wasn’t abolished by Spain and Portugal until the late 19th […]

  • St. Louis Prosecutor Charges McCloskeys With Felony

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 20th 2020 9:26pm EDT

    This story has done more to radicalize normies than all our collective efforts over the course of the last twenty years combined. It also just the capstone of the events of the last two months.

    We’re covered in shit. As I started at this graffiti covered statue of Robert E. Lee while dipping my feet in a swimming pool on a hot summer day, it hit me. It seems like this is all we do now. It has become a routine. We wake up in the morning, check the news, […]

  • Andrew Sullivan Resigns From New York Magazine

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 17th 2020 3:01pm EDT

    We live in a strange world. In this world, I am the “bigot” and “extremist” and the underground “hate group.” And yet, I have read Andrew Sullivan over the years and it has never occurred to me to hate or despise the man or to whip up a mob to silence him. Sure, he is […]

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 17th 2020 1:18pm EDT

    Racial conflict has been surprisingly muted since George Floyd died.

  • Liberalism and Leftism

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 16th 2020 8:08pm EDT

    It is hard to say which is worse. I want to draw a distinction. This might be confusing to some readers. When I criticize “woke supremacy,” I am referring to Woke people whose worldview is based on Critical Social Justice Theory. These people are leftists and their intellectual roots trace back ultimately to the Frankfurt […]

  • What Is Deconstruction?

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 16th 2020 3:04pm EDT

    Deconstruction is another lovely idea that comes from our Jewish friends alongside Marxism and Freudianism which are the foundation of Critical Theory. Jacques Derrida was the Jewish father of deconstruction which is a technique used by woke supremacists: 1/Deconstruction.You’ve likely seen this word in media and in academic literature. If you want to understand wokeness […]

    Occidental Dissent - Jul 15th 2020 3:43pm EDT

    1.
