OK, I don’t even know if that’s right or not, but if the so-called “dissident Right” makes up 40% of the Right, then wouldn’t that mean it’s more of a “major faction” among them, rather than “dissidents”? Eh, maybe that’s just a question of semantics…
It kinda reminds of how in the 1990s, what they called “alternative rock” was probably the most popular genre of rock. Ya know, the “grunge” bands especially, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and so forth. Don’t get me wrong, I loved, and still love, that kinda stuff, but if “alternative” becomes the mainstream, how is it really “alternative” anymore? lol
