The Post-Partisan Emporium

A personal story About charity - and charities - in our time Alex Berenson I first started giving money to City Harvest more than 30 years ago. City Harvest was founded in 1982 with the mission of bringing New York City restaurant food that would have been thrown out to soup kitchens - a small way to deliver some of the city’s incredible wealth to its poorest people. I can’t remember how old I was when I sent in money for the first time - 14? 15? - but I kept on giving. At some point, City Harvest told me I was its longest continuously active donor. It was a scrappy little charity with crowded offices near Times Square and an even more crowded warehouse in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. It had a few big-name chefs associated with it - Eric Ripert of the famous Le Bernadin was a board member and a huge supporter. But it wasn’t the Met, the museum  or  the opera. It wasn’t in any way fancy. I made more money and gave more money, especially after The Faithful Spy, my first novel, sold w...

OCARDITIS! The medical community issues another flawed mission accomplished announcement on Covid vaccine-induced myocarditis. Brian Mowrey Let us presume that the mRNA scripts contained in the pseudo-vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 are escaping the site of injection - or, in many cases, entering the bloodstream directly, since the authorities have advised against “aspirating” the syringe during intramuscular injections, meaning there is no way to check against doing so 1  - and that they must primarily be taken up by the cells of the vascular epithelium, especially in capillaries, where blood flow is slowest: Would this explain why the hearts of teenaged and young adult males are more symptomatically affected than others? I think it quite easily would. Compared to girls and women of the same age, teenaged boys and adult men have larger hearts, implying more coronary capillary volume; and the former are believed to experience cardiac distress in less clearly centered locations - such as th...

First ~50 seconds... are godly priceless! 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, although we ...

WHY DO SO MANY STILL BUY INTO THE NARRATIVE? Does it sometimes feel like you’re surrounded by people who’ve been hypnotised in some way? Well, maybe you are. My guest tonight is Mattias Desmet, Professor of Clinical Psychology at Ghent University in Belgium, and his observations over the past 18 months have led him to conclude that the overwhelming majority have indeed fallen under a kind of spell. Except it’s not actually a spell, of course: the term for it is ‘mass formation’ and right now it’s manifesting as a psychological response — not unlike hypnosis — to the unrelenting, single-focus campaign of fear to which we have all been subjected. Join me at 5pm when I will explore with Mattias what triggers and sustains this mass response, where it could ultimately lead us, why a minority somehow manages to remain unaffected, and whether there’s anything we can collectively do to break the spell before it’s too late.

The human rights industry exposed  By James Allan The writer is in Australia. IF THERE is one thing this Covid pandemic has shown us, it is the hollow and massively politicised nature of the lawyer-driven human rights complex. I refer to those NGOs with ‘human rights’ in their title that purport to stand up for individual rights, and to the university-housed centres in law schools that claim to be focused on advancing the cause of human rights. Then there are the law firms that promote their human rights credentials and expertise. And let’s not overlook the many barristers who style themselves as experts in human rights law. Heck, we can even throw in more than a few virtue-signalling big corporations who advertise their ‘social justice’ credentials.  Now ask yourself where this motley crew have been these past 18 months as government in this country (and in Britain, Canada and the US) have made more inroads on citizens’ freedoms and civil liberties than at any other time in o...
