Small-Scale Question Sunday for November 9, 2025

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

Dissident Right includes a bunch of sub groups interested in various things, I'm not sure if this nails the correct people you're looking for. These are more from about ten years back than what's probably current.

But here are some books I'd recommend.

Michael Malice - The New Right
Steve Sailer - Noticing

Sailer is a quite important idea person, but his writing is scattered over a series of blogs. Noticing is a handy anthology. Otherwise he's currently writing at http://www.stevesailer.net and https://www.takimag.com/contributor/Steve%20Sailer/6/

John Derbyshire

Collects his writings at https://johnderbyshire.com/Opinions/page.html, has an anthology of essays coming out soon: https://passage.press/products/john-derbyshire

Curtis Yarvin

These are probably the two most important articles to read, https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2007/05/castes-of-united-states/ https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2007/05/bdh-ov-conflict_07/

Currently writes at https://graymirror.substack.com/

He has a book "A Gentle Introduction to Unqualified Reservations" that is less accessible than the title would suggest.

Christopher Caldwell - The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties

He's not a dissident right thinker, but the book captures important points

Tucker Carlson - Ship of Fools

Not a deep make you think book, but it lays out the grievances well

Ann Coulter - Adios America

Really only included because it does a good job documenting how the government chooses not to collect a lot of obvious relevant data about immigration, which the left turns into an argument "there's no proof of X, therefore I'm right"
