Portmanteau of "dissident" + "pissant." A neoconservative who cosplays as an independent, principled contrarian breaking from the establishment consensus, while in reality just recycling the same tired hawkish, regime-change orthodoxy as everyone else in the movement. The political equivalent of calling yourself a rebel while reading straight off the party script.
