ICMI25 was held earlier this month in Canberra, Australia.

I’ve just had an email from a well-known MRA, asking if he can speak at ICMI25. I had to tell him that Anil Kumar took over responsibility for ICMIs earlier this year, so I was no longer involved. But it turns out he’d need a time machine to attend the event, as it took place earlier this month (13-17 October).

I knew nothing about the event, and I’ve never heard of any of the keynote speakers. I shall be having a strong word with Anil when we meet next week during the XY Crew Jamboree in Thailand.

Matt Goodwin: “Reform’s secret plan for government.”

Excellent.

I first heard of (professor, at the time) Matt Goodwin over a very pleasurable 1:1 lunch with Nigel Farage about three years ago. There isn’t a more astute commentator on British politics.

Matt’s blog has 87,000+ subscribers in 181 countries, so comments we leave in response to his posts are seen by a lot of people. I’ve posted the following comments which have already started to receive upvotes:

“Matt, thanks for another great piece. Every day is another day that Nigel Farage and Reform UK take another step towards #10. That day can’t come soon enough for millions of us.

Hopefully at some point Reform UK will make a public pledge to sort out, when in office, the ideologically-driven (feminist / anti-family) family courts which deny parents (fathers in 95% of cases) access to their beloved children, based on allegations alone, which lead to legal aid for the person making the allegation, and are almost never investigated by the police.

This is child abuse and abuse of fathers (many of whom tragically commit suicide) and the child’s aunts, uncles, grandparents, and so many more. Millions of potential votes there, surely!

OREGON: Lawsuit seeking to ban circumcision as discriminatory genital cutting passes crucial legal test

Interesting. This is potentially one of the most important blog posts we’ve ever published. Fingers crossed. It is of necessity a fairly lengthy one.

The start of the article:

“A lawsuit filed by circumcision opponents cleared a crucial legal hurdle last week as a judge shot down Oregon’s attempt to dismiss the case.

The suit, filed in March on behalf of several circumcised men, alleges they suffered unlawful sex discrimination because Oregon lawmakers banned female genital mutilation in 1999 but allowed male genital cutting to continue.

Multnomah County Circuit Judge Melvin Oden-Orr issued an oral ruling Thursday finding that the plaintiffs have standing — in other words, that there’s a valid allegation of harm that could be fixed by winning a lawsuit.

Defeating state attorneys’ motion to dismiss means the litigation can proceed to discovery, a months- or years-long process when both sides turn over evidence.

“They suffered stigmatic harm by being treated as lesser than, or be given less legal rights, because of their sex,” Eric Clopper, [J4MB emphasis] lead counsel for the circumcised men, said in an interview Monday. He also said they were injured physically.”

Some longer-term followers of this blog will recall Eric Clopper as the Jewish man who gave a remarkable talk at Harvard University in 2018 on the subject of MGM. Our blog pieces on Clopper are here.

Our YouTube channel has a playlist of 113 videos on the issue of MGM. It contains Clopper’s talk, which was titled Sex & Circumcision: An American Love Story by Eric Clopper (video, 2:10:50). The full video description takes up the remainder of this blog piece:

“Eric Clopper’s nonprofit combatting infant genital mutilation, please go to https://www.intactglobal.org/ My show ‘Sex & Circumcision: An American Love Story’ premiered at Harvard University’s Sanders Theatre on May 1, 2018.

Two days later, the student paper, The Crimson, defamed the performance that they did not see a “Naked, Anti-Semitic Rant.” Harvard suspended my employment for over 2 months then terminated me and drove my Harvard boss to suicide for supporting me.

If you’d like to support my work, stay apprised of further developments, or help with nation-wide litigation to protect all children from genital mutilation, please subscribe to Intact Global’s email list at https://www.intactglobal.org/

For podcast and publicity inquiries, please email me at eric@clopper.com

I hope you can find the two hours to follow me down the rabbit hole.

— Clopper”

Were the five “guards” who ran away from the scene during the Louvre jewellery heist of the female persuasion? It’s a safe bet.

We recently posted the piece Sargon: “The Louvre Heist: Another Win for Feminism.” An interesting piece in The Times a week ago, How the Louvre museum heist unfolded. An extract:

“The thieves threatened the five guards on duty in the gallery with their angle grinders [J4MB emphasis] before cutting open the two display cabinets.”

I cannot find anything on the sex(es) of the guards, but I think it’s a safe bet to assume all five were women. The (presumably unarmed) robbers would have been aware from earlier visits that the guards were unarmed women who could be relied on to offer no physical resistance if a man uttered shouty words.

I was a freelance procurement consultant for many years and in the unlikely event I’d ever been asked for cost reduction ideas by the Louvre, one of my recommendations would have been to replace their female guards with these, with no loss of effectiveness in relation to deterrence.

It’s been 58 years since the passing of the Abortion Act 1967. 10,880,563 lives lost.

Our thanks to Eli for this. A baby is lost to abortion every two minutes in the UK, every three seconds across the world. Women’s “right to choose”, eh?

Academic Richard Taylor successfully sues Steve Coogan (comedian, mangina) over his film’s defamatory portrayal of him as misogynistic in his film about finding the remains of Richard III under a Leicester car park.

Our thanks to Philip for this welcome news. The film not only presented Richard Taylor as misogynistic, it greatly overstated a woman’s role in the project. The academic Richard Taylor states:

“… it’s fantastic now, that we have established in court that The Lost King is a misleading, defamatory, untrue portrayal of what happened in Leicester back in 2012.”

Another extract from the BBC article takes up the remainder of this blog piece:

In a statement after the hearing, Mr Taylor – now the chief operating officer at Loughborough University – added: “Whilst it is clear to me that the defendants were misled as to the events of the discovery, they made a deliberate choice to accept those accounts, failing to speak or check basic facts.

“Our work is twisted into a false caricature of university elitism, ivory towers and self-interest.”

Mr Taylor said Ms Langley’s initiation of the project and “driving confidence” had made it possible for Richard III to be found.

He added: “Hers was a remarkable contribution. But it did not extend to leading the archaeological search or scientific analysis, for which she was neither qualified nor experienced to lead.

“I could have dropped Philippa’s approach for help into the waste bin when it arrived in 2011, and there have been days over the last three years when I wished that I had.

“But I didn’t, and my decision to deploy the resources and expertise of the university enabled this search to happen.”
