Donald Trump Nominates Thomas Cullen For Federal Judgeship
Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2019 6:52pm ESTDonald Trump should be impeached within the hour. It is hard to think of a bigger f*** you to those of us who supported him in 2016 than nominating Thomas Cullen to a U.S. District Court. Washington Post: “RICHMOND, Va. — President Donald Trump has nominated U.S. Attorney Thomas Cullen for a federal judgeship to […]

Conservatism, Inc.’s Counter Revolution Against MAGA
Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2019 3:13pm ESTDo you remember the 2016 election? It felt like the outcome of the 2019 British election. The same dynamic was at play with Trump running an insurgent campaign on a national populist message and platform against a neoliberal centrist. The media was stunned as the Blue Wall collapsed and Trump won the presidency. This was […]
Morgoth’s Review: Do Modern Cities Destroy Men?
Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2019 11:54am ESTAbsolutely. The liberal poison that is degenerating our culture emanates from the metropolitan ant heaps. This is where you will find the greatest concentrations of it. This IS NOT to say that it doesn’t pour out into rural areas which are equally immersed in popular culture thanks to the media. Everyone has a smartphone and […]
PRESIDENTIAL HARASSMENT: Donald Trump’s Impeachment
Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2019 9:40am ESTThe president is being impeached today by the Democrats because billionaire donors like Tom Steyer and the Far Left have demanded it since he won the 2016 election. It is the culmination of three years of the boring Russia conspiracy hoax, which was quietly dropped after the Mueller Report, and which was quickly replaced by […]
Tony Blair: Labour’s Historic Challenge
Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2019 9:25am ESTI needed a good laugh this morning. I was feeling really bad yesterday and was too sick to even crawl of the bed. In his speech on Labour’s collapse this morning, Tony Blair didn’t once mention immigration or neoliberalism or political correctness or multiculturalism. He briefly mentioned Iraq, but didn’t dwell on the subject for […]

DW: Back To The Future? Weimar Today
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 11:47pm ESTI’m about to watch this documentary. If anyone wants to watch it with me, here is below: Are there parallels between our times and the 1920s and 1930s? In some ways, there are parallels like Joseph Goebbels here on the Lügenpresse. In other ways, there is no appetite for a European war between nation-states to […]
Time: Lizzo Named Entertainer Of The Year

TAC: Orders of Charity
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 7:07pm ESTThis is a good article. I recommend that our Catholic readers read and digest it and wonder what changed. It doesn’t sound all too different from Luther’s idea of the Orders of Creation. TAC: “As a Catholic theologian, Aquinas unsurprisingly identifies God as the preeminent object of man’s love. But this hierarchy also has broad […]
The Center Left To Right Pipeline
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 4:35pm EST
I’ve been reading and thinking about Simon Reid-Henry’s book Empire of Democracy: The Remaking of the West Since the Cold War, 1971-2017. At the beginning of the postwar era, the Democratic Party and the New Deal coalition was strong in the United States. The Christian Democrats and Social Democrats were similarly strong in Western Europe. […]Michigan Swing Voters Are Just Trump Voters Now
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 2:20pm ESTI’m not surprised. I’ve been sensing a shift in momentum ever since the Democratic debates started and this impeachment nonsense began this fall. It has been a double victory for Trump. Axios: “SAGINAW, Mich. — Some swing voters here who voted for Barack Obama and then Donald Trump are firmly in Trump’s camp now — […]
Justin Trudeau Orders Cabinet To Regulate Internet Hate Speech
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 1:19pm ESTAs I pointed out in the Hallmark article, liberal totalitarianism enforces cultural uniformity like any other totalitarian state.

Trudeau told the new heritage minister that he’s to “create new […]
Boris Johnson Plans To Move Forward With Anti-BDS Law
Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2019 12:55pm ESTWe’re not excited about Boris Johnson’s new Red Tory majority in the UK. While the Labour Party deserved to lose and its demise is rightly worth celebrating, the Conservatives didn’t deserve to win and we should remain highly skeptical of their agenda. Times of Israel: “Newly reelected British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to […]

New York Times: Jews Experience Anxiety Over Hardening National Identities
Occidental Dissent - Dec 15th 2019 9:12pm ESTIf national identities continue to “harden” and liberalism collapses over the next 30 years as it dissolves the foundations of Western nations and generates so much ethnic tension that it becomes unsustainable, the worst thing that will happen to anxious Jews is that they will pack their bags and evac to Israel where they will […]
New York Times: Military Investigating Suspected ‘White Power’ Hand Gestures Flashed at Game
Occidental Dissent - Dec 15th 2019 6:28pm ESTThe ADL has officially designated the OK sign as a “white supremacist hand gesture.” Surely, that must be how it is being used here.

Lutheran Orthodoxy and Pietism
Occidental Dissent - Dec 15th 2019 3:48pm ESTI spent much of last year studying the Reformation. I’m currently studying the period between the Peace of Augsburg and the Enlightenment and exploring how Lutheranism continued to evolve in Northern Europe in the late 16th, 17th and early 18th centuries. This period is roughly bounded by Luther’s death and Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Schleiermacher […]
