Ничего общего у слов "Dissidenten" и "Getrennte" или "Andersdenkende" в структуре не прослеживается.
В то время, как слова "to decide" и "десидент" явно имеют общее.
Так-что этимологию слова искажаете Вы вместе с Вашими источниками!

Уважаемый, мне ваши "научные открытия" уже становятся в тягость. Ну да ладно. Итак, прежде чем говорить ерунду, надо хотя бы АЗЫ знать словообразования и происхождения слова. ТО ЧТО ВЫ, не зная как ВЕРНО произносится глагол
decide проводите аналогию с латинским словом диссидент, еще не повод согласиться с вами. В английском языке слово dissident так же есть, но оно ЗНАЧИТ иммено то, что было мной указано.
