Voz here: Feel Free to beat this one! Have a Good one! The Post-Partisan Emporium's Purpose and Standards This site does not have a particular political position. We welcome articles from various points of view, and civil debate when differences arise. Contributions of articles from posters are always welcome. Unless a contribution is really beyond the pale, we do not edit what goes up as topics for discussion. If you would like to contribute an article, let one of the moderators know. Likewise if you would like to become an official contributor so you can put up articles yourself, but for that we need to exchange email addresses and we need a Google email address from you. Contributions can be anything, including fiction, poems, cartoons, or songs. They can be your own writing or someone else’s writing which has yet to be published. We understand that tempers flare during heated conversations, and we're willing to overlook the occasional name-calling in that situation,...

A Fantasy of Virus-Free Air Are periodic respiratory virus infections necessary to maintain overall human health? Steve Templeton, PhD. More than twenty months into the pandemic, it’s clear that many mandated mitigation strategies do not significantly prevent virus transmission, or  do so at a steep price . Lockdowns  haven’t   stopped  virus spread around the world, and are not sustainable due to  massive collateral damage . There is  no consistent evidence of a benefit of universal masking, despite unprecedented politicization  and  potential for bias in scientific studies . School closures and remote learning are harmful and ineffective, as  children remain at low risk  for severe disease and schools are not major drivers of community outbreaks. Vaccines may limit severe disease, which is important for vulnerable individuals, but are less effective at preventing infection and transmission than  immunity acquired by infection . De...

Davos Billionaires Want to Save the Planet… Why Don’t Developing Countries Trust Them? Matthew Ehret A miracle appears to be happening, as the multibillionaires of the World Economic Forum (WEF) appear to have grown consciences. As if by magic, it appears that these gold collar elites no longer yearn for profit and power as they once had. As COP26 closes up its 12 day annual ceremonies, leading WEF-connected figures like Prince Charles, Jeff Bezos, Mario Draghi, Mark Carney and Klaus Schwab have announced a new system of economics that is based on virtue over profit! According to the COP26 website,  “95 high profile companies from a range of sectors commit to being ‘Nature Positive,’ agreeing to work towards halting and reversing the decline of nature by 2030.” Prince Charles has boasted that he has coordinated 300 companies representing over $60 trillion to get on board with a global green transition, and after  meeting with the Prince on November 2 , Jeff Bezos announced his...

at what point do we have to rename "conspiracy theories"? el gato malo and start calling them “spoiler alerts”? because these two stories were less than 2 weeks apart… just going to keep posting this meme until it stops being true: we might want to consider a new name for “fact check” too. any ideas?

Kyle Rittenhouse, Project Veritas, and the Inability to Think in Terms of Principles Those whose worldview is bereft of universally applied principles, and based solely on tribal allegiances, assume everyone else is plagued by this very deficiency. Glenn Greenwald James O'Keefe meets with supporters during the Conservative Political Action Conference 2020 (CPAC) hosted by the American Conservative Union on February 28, 2020 in National Harbor, MD. (Photo by Samuel Corum/Getty Images) The FBI has executed  a  string of search warrants  targeting the homes and cell phones of Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe and several others associated with that organization. It should require no effort to understand why it is a cause for concern that a Democratic administration is using the FBI to aggressively target an organization devoted to obtaining and reporting incriminating information about Democratic Party leaders and their liberal allies. That does not mean the FBI investig...
