2014: Rape Culture On The Ropes
By : When Jaclyn Friedman entered the atrium of the Queen’s University Biosciences Complex on April 8, 2014, she did so like a visiting dignitary. At the university to deliver a guest lecture, Friedman walked briskly and upright, pausing briefly to look at some artwork here and there, nodding gently during conversation, all the while radiating a reserved enthusiasm—much like what one would expect of royalty. Just like any dignitary, she was escorted by eager volunteers, and just like any dignitary, she had a security detail.
While Friedman is a somewhat popular figure in the feminist community, she is by no means generally popular. The overwhelming majority of people—including students—likely have no idea who she is; she does not in any sense enjoy the sort of popularity that would send legions of shrieking fans armed with autograph books and smartphones to book signings or lectures. She’s known by other feminists. That’s about it.

Acid-Throwing: Almost Exclusively A Women’s Crime?
By : Adam Lee Hargrave was an early 20th-century crime reporter and documentarian who wrote extensively on Scotland Yard, the C.I.D., Jack the Ripper, and similar topics. The following article about acid-throwing is from his 1912 book Woman and Crime, in which he states that women were almost exclusively responsible for the crime.—PWTHE VITRIOL-THROWERS
THE act of throwing vitriol may very well be bracketed with secret and slow poisoning as an example of extreme cruelty in women. Vitriol-throwing is rarely resorted to by men, being almost exclusively confined to females. The latter as we have already pointed out are also largely in the majority among poisoners. It is just as inexplicable as is the inhumanity of women towards little children, and why such savagery should find a home in the bosoms of those who are universally supposed to be inspired by instincts of sympathy and tenderness it is fruitless to try and discover. But it makes one thing quite clear, namely, that the orthodox opinions held by most men concerning women are not strictly accurate.
I recall the case of the Frenchwoman, Madame Emilie Foucault, who was indicted at the Old Bailey for throwing upon Andre Jacques Delombre a corrosive fluid, with intent to disfigure him or do him grievous bodily harm. I have already given an account of this case in another work of mine,1 but think it as well to include it here, as in many respects it is a remarkable case of its kind.
Girl Advising Men On How To Deal With Women
It Wasn't North Korea Or Russia: Sony Hack "Perpetrator" Said To Be Laid-Off, Disgruntled Employee
Submitted by Tyler Durden: First it was, with "absolute certainly", North Korea. Then, out of the blue, an even more ridiculous theory emerged about the origin of the Sony hackers:
Russia. Now, we finally get the truth, and as it turns out it was
neither of the abovementioned sovereign actors who had nothing better to
do than to hack movie scripts and racist emails: it was Sony's own
disgruntled worker who was the source of the hack.
According to Politico, FBI agents investigating the Sony Pictures hack were briefed Monday by a security firm that says its research points to laid-off Sony staff, not North Korea, as the perpetrator."
But... but just a week ago the FBI was so absolutely certain it was North Korea it released the following statement:Researchers from the cyber intelligence company Norse have said their own investigation into the data on the Sony attack doesn’t point to North Korea at all and instead indicates some combination of a disgruntled employee and hackers for piracy groups is at fault.
Today, the FBI would like to provide an update on the status of our investigation into the cyber attack targeting Sony Pictures Entertainment (SPE). In late November, SPE confirmed that it was the victim of a cyber attack that destroyed systems and stole large quantities of personal and commercial data. A group calling itself the "Guardians of Peace" claimed responsibility for the attack and subsequently issued threats against SPE, its employees, and theaters that distribute its movies.
A Cure For Feminist Hysteria? + Feminist Personality Disorder
By Mike Buchanan: A J4MB supporter has emailed me in response to the piece I wrote yesterday
about Feminist Personality Disorder. As well as Narcissistic
Personality Disorder, persecutory delusions, and victim mentality, he
suggests that hysteria is almost invariably a component of Feminist
Personality Disorder, leading feminists to believe (contrary to all
available evidence) that a ‘rape culture’ exists, that the vast majority
of domestic violence is inflicted by men upon women, and that ‘over two
women a week are killed by partners or ex-partners’. The last claim
was, of course, the basis of the first of our two ‘Lying Feminist of the
Month’ awards presented to Special Snowflake.By the mid to late 19th century, hysteria came to refer to what is today generally considered to be sexual dysfunction. Typical treatment was massage of the patient’s genitalia by the physician and, later, by vibrators or water sprays to cause orgasm.Might this be a possible cure for feminist hysteria, and go some way towards alleviating Feminist Personality Disorder? The treatment should be made available on the NHS. What a happier world it would be, if all feminists availed themselves of it.

"Conclusive Evidence" JSIL (Israel) Used Gaza As Testing Ground For New Weapons: Palestine Official
A senior Palestinian official says the Gaza Strip was used by the Israeli regime as a testing ground for its new weapons during the recent genocide on the besieged territory.
Press TV: “There is conclusive evidence that it (Israel) used the Gaza Strip as a test bed for its deadly weaponry,” said Mustafa Barghouti, the secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative Party.
He added that the regime fired around 21,000 tons of weapons, which is equivalent to two nuclear bombs, on Gaza during the 50-day war in July-August.
Over 2,140 Palestinians, mostly civilians, were killed in the Israeli war, while some 11,000 were injured.
Barghouti said, “Israel has launched four devastating wars against Gaza, during which it has used internationally-prohibited weapons, including white phosphorus, as well as barrel bombs.”

Pressure Shows The US Black Uprising Is Very Serious
By Hamid Reza Emadi: As a Press TV senior producer back then in 2009, when the post-election unrest gripped the Iranian capital, I was faced with a unique opportunity to cover some hot news from the motherland. The more I covered the post-election unrest, the more I learned about the difficulties of reporting on our own problems rather than on others’. Today, I take pride, as a journalist, in the fact that we did our best to cover what came to be as facts and not what eventually turned out to be hearsay, sabotages, unsubstantiated reports or fantasies. I admit that there were flaws in the coverage, too. But generally we covered a political earthquake in Iran from Tehran, what I never imagined that would even be possible. Since then, I have paid close attention to the rolling coverage of protests in Western capitals, though of totally different nature, by the Western media. And I have seen very little.
In 2011, London protests were gruesomely censored by the BBC and the CNN, making Press TV a dominant voice for the protesters, many of whom had never heard of the Iranian channel. Our journalists and cameras were everywhere as our rolling coverage machine was in full swing. As a result of the magnificent coverage, the British media regulatory body, Ofcom, took Press TV off the air. I and the then CEO of Press TV were placed under punitive measures, i.e. EU sanctions. In a letter, Catherine Ashton of Britain, the then EU foreign policy chief, called me a human rights violator. She accused me of the most ungodly crimes possible, making sure that I would stay on the sanctions list even when she herself is gone. And I knew it very well that I was paying the price.

By Michael Snyder: The American people are feeling really good right about now. For example, Gallup’s economic confidence index has hit the highest level that we have seen since the last recession. In addition, nearly half of all Americans believe that 2015 will be a better year than 2014 was, and only about 10 percent believe that it will be a worse year. And a lot of people are generally feeling quite good about the people that have been leading our nation. According to Gallup, once again this year Hillary Clinton is the most admired woman in America and Barack Obama is the most admired man in America. I don’t know what that says about our nation, but it can’t be good. Unfortunately, when things seem to be going well common sense tends to go out the window. A couple days ago, the Guardian ran an article entitled “Goodbye to one of the best years in history“, and a whole lot of people out there are feeling really optimistic these days. But should they be? Sadly, what we are experiencing right now is so similar to what we witnessed in 2007 and early 2008. The stock market had been on a great run, people were flipping houses like crazy and most people were convinced that the party would never end.
But then it did end – very painfully.
The signs of trouble were there, but most people chose to ignore them.
Sadly, the exact same thing is happening again.
On Monday, the price of oil hit a brand new five year low. As I write this, U.S. oil is sitting at a price of $53.76 a barrel, which is nearly a 50 percent decline from the peak earlier this year.
There is only one other time in history when the price of oil has declined by more than 50 dollars a barrel in such a short time frame. That was back in the middle of 2008, shortly before the worst stock market crash since the Great Depression.

Elegantly Soaring Dollar To Hit “Air Pocket” In 2015, Slated For Long-Term Decline
By Wolf Richter: The death of the dollar – as much as some folks were ready for it – didn’t occur in 2014. OK, there are a few days left, but you get the idea. Instead, the dollar has been hot.
It rose against a large number of currencies. Some of them, such as the Russian ruble, have plunged for reasons of their own and have engendered desperate efforts to stem the decline. Other countries, like Japan, have gone all out to demolish their currencies. Escalating the currency war is frowned upon. So Japan found more acceptable names for it and redoubled its efforts. And the ECB has been passionately talking down the euro, but has done relatively little by central-bank standards to actually water it down.Greece In Turmoil After Third Failed Presidential Vote Means January 25 Snap Elections
It appears that with a few short days left in the year, the Santa rally is finally over, if only in Greece where both bonds and stock are tumbling after the third vote for PM Samaras' appointed presidential appointee Stavros Dimas concluded as many had expected: in failure, with 168 Greek lawmakers voting in favor of Dimas, well short of the 180-vote threshold needed. 132 voted against Mr. Dimas. This means that the "worst case" scenario - at least as described by Goldman - is now on deck: a snap general election that could bring the anti-bailout Syriza party to power. And speaking of Syriza, and its triumphant leader Samaras, moments ago he announced that the now inevitable Greek elections will take place on January 25: pencil that date in for even more turmoil.
Half Of All Children Will Be Autistic by 2025, Warns Senior Research Scientist At MIT
Why? Evidence points to glyphosate toxicity from the overuse of Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide on our food.
By ANH-USA: For over three decades, Stephanie Seneff, PhD, has researched biology and technology, over the years publishing over 170 scholarly peer-reviewed articles [1].
In recent years she has concentrated on the relationship between
nutrition and health, tackling such topics as Alzheimer’s, autism, and
cardiovascular diseases, as well as the impact of nutritional
deficiencies and environmental toxins on human health.
At a conference last Thursday, in a special panel discussion about GMOs, she took the audience by surprise when she declared, “At today’s rate, by 2025, one in two children will be autistic.”

Israel's Arrest Campaign Targting Palestinian Children

“The Palestinians have a right to resist the occupation in different forms, and there is nothing to justify the increase in the number of Palestinians’ arrests.
Only War, Inflation And Financial Collapse Can End The Global "Plutonomy", According To Citi
Submitted by Tyler Durden: The last time the market was as euphoric and as complacent as it is now, was in the happy go lucky days
of 2006 when every day stocks surged without a care in the world, when
Lehman bankers were looking to a comfortable retirement after cashing
out their stock (then trading north of $70), when the only question was
which mega M&A and supermega LBO will hit next, and when the then-brand new Fed
chairman Ben Bernanke said there is nothing to worry about because
subprime was contained and because home prices in the US just can not
possibly drop. Not surprisingly, late 2006 was also when Citigroup held
its first and only Plutonomy symposium: a joyous celebration
of the 0.001%, or as Citi called them, "The Uber-rich, the plutonomists
who are likely to see net worth-income ratios surge, driving luxury
consumption", adding "Time to re-commit to plutonomy stocks – Binge on Bling.
Equity multiples appear too low, the profit share of GDP is high and
likely going higher, stocks look likely to beat housing, and we are
bullish on equities."
Yes, and that's not all.
“No Working Title”: An introduction
The Back Story
There are many facets of abuse: emotional, physical, spiritual, sexual.
I was actively involved in a sex act with my parents at around four years of age.
It is my oldest memory.
My first pornographic magazine was at around five or six—Cavalier magazine, I believe. At 11, Deep Throat was the feature at my first introduction, a fathers-and-sons night called Porn and Prawn. At 13, it was Debbie Does Dallas. I grew up believing that Penthouse Forums were all true stories and that was what sex and women were really like.
I was made to have oral sex with my mother at four years of age while my father watched. My early teen years are a muddle of my parents’ parties I had to go to and the things I had to do or were done to me by family friends or strangers, sex I had to have with strangers while being watched, or the sex I had to watch taking place.
My experience then became one of emotional abuse.
Later in life, I became a magnet for the spiritually manipulative and emotionally abusive. They fed off my brokenness, capitalizing on my need for acceptance and my desire to have a place to belong. The strange thing is that I never connected the dots until I was in my 40s. It all lay in unconnected little pieces, hidden broken shards of memories, disconnected.
Life went on.

Have Your Victim’s Child In Order To Avoid Jail: The Verdict
The Victorian Police and the Department of Human Services, we are told, were powerless to do anything about it, even though they knew. The shocking fact is that the authorities were outsmarted by a woman with an IQ of 64.
By the time he was 18 years old, he was a father of three. That same year he found out what it is like to pay child support but not be allowed to see his own children. Finally, in 2011, he filed a complaint to the authorities. It took them three years to bring the matter to trial. That trial ended with the woman avoiding any jail time.
This story highlights a number of concerns for the rights and well-being of men and boys in Australia, and we will tackle them in a few articles. This first article looks at the farcical judgment of Judge Chris O’Neill, which shows that men and boys cannot expect justice from the Australian courts.
The Herald Sun tells us:
County Court Judge Chris O’Neill said that the hardship that would be suffered by the now-married woman’s children if she was imprisoned, as well as her reduced moral culpability due to cognitive deficits, meant her jail term would be wholly suspended.

Putting Anita Sarkeesian In The Public Square
By If I had to single out a prime mover who set the #GamerGate
chain of events in motion, Anita Sarkeesian would be my candidate. I
grant you that Zoe Quinn was the proximate cause—the spark to the powder
keg, if you will—but props to Sarkeesian for filling up that keg in the
first place.
For at least a couple of years, Sarkeesian was busily undermining the
gamer community in preparation for trouble that was clearly
anticipated. So when the planned operation was finally launched, the Zoe
Quinn fracas served only as a pretext—a “Gulf of Tonkin” incident to
justify aggressive intervention. The time was ripe, Quinn popped up, and
it was off to the races!
But the tension had been building for quite a while, and there would have been no #GamerGate without it. And that tension would never have been ratcheted to fever pitch without Sarkeesian’s steady, slow-motion agitprop.
So here’s the condensed version of events since #GamerGate erupted: the other side (meaning the feminists and the authoritarian left) have constructed a threat narrative. The order of the day has been slander, obfuscation, conflation, misrepresentation, and other dirty tricks directed against anybody aligned with #GamerGate or merely imputed to be aligned with it.

Israel Is A Rapist State
Do Men Need A Better Men’s Rights Movement?
By : Recently, Nancy Kaffer, a columnist at the Detroit Free Press, wrote that “Men Need A Better Men’s Rights Movement” and that the present movement is nothing but a misogynistic conspiracy.
I would like to remind Kaffer that advocacy for men’s rights is not negation of women’s rights. If feminism was all about equality, then feminists would not have become alarmed about the Men’s Rights Movement (MRM). In fact, anyone fighting for an equal world would be glad if half of humanity rises up to speak for equality.
On the other hand, it is radical feminists who spread misandry and have a gynocentric, extremist worldview in which men are dispensable objects. According to feminists, men are nothing but rapists and perpetuators of violence. Feminists sometimes even advocate lesbianism just because “all penetrative sex is rape.”
In India, some of the biggest MRM supporters and activists are women because some of the biggest sufferers of feminist activities and anti-male laws in India are, ironically, women. More women have been arrested under Indian Penal Code Section 498A (which is a dowry prevention law) than under all other Indian laws put together. India has earned the dubious position as a leader of elderly citizen abuse, thanks to wide misuse of anti-dowry laws.

For Fucks Sake Don't Kill Yourself
Double Standards On False Accusations And Rapes
By : Eleanor
de Freitas falsely accused Alexander Economou of raping her.[1] The
police let her get away with it, so he brought a private prosecution of
perverting the course of justice to clear his name. The Crown
Prosecution Service (CPS) took over the prosecution. De Freitas then
killed herself three days before her trial. She had bipolar disorder,
but a forensic psychiatrist instructed by her own legal team had
“recommended that she was aware of the implications of making a false
allegation and was fit to stand trial.”[2] Her father was ‘“still
astonished” that the CPS had decided to prosecute her.[3]For a contrast, consider this hypothetical case. Jack raped Jill. The police let him get away with it, so she brought a private prosecution of rape. The Crown Prosecution Service took over the prosecution. Jack then killed himself three days before his trial. He had bipolar disorder, but a forensic psychiatrist instructed by his own legal team had “recommended that he was aware of the implications of rape and was fit to stand trial.” His mother was ‘“still astonished” that the CPS had decided to prosecute him.
The contrast is salutary. Many will feel some sympathy for Eleanor de Freitas. None will feel sympathy for Jack. This is the first double standard.
Many will feel sympathy for the father of de Freitas. Most will regard the mother of Jack as callously failing to realise the severity of the crime her son committed. This is the second double standard.
Jill will be offered all sorts of help and support. Men who are falsely accused are shunned and shamed. This is the third double standard.
Jill is regarded as a victim deserving of special care whether or not Jack is convicted. Men who are falsely accused are regarded for the rest of their life as probably guilty unless the malicious woman is prosecuted. This is the fourth double standard.

2014: The Year Propaganda Came Of Age
And then there were those who had risked their lives in equally courageous ways to get news out to people, putting out newspapers and radio broadcasts just so there would be a version of events out there that was real, and not just what the Germans wanted one to believe. This happened in all Nazi – and Nazi friendly – occupied European nations. The courage of these people is hard to gauge for us today, and I’m convinced there’s no way to say whom amongst us would show that kind of bravery if we were put to the test; I certainly wouldn’t be sure about myself.Still, without wanting to put myself anywhere near the level of those very very real heroes, please don’t get me wrong about that, that’s not what I mean, I was thinking about them with regards to what is happening in our media today. I’ve mentioned before that I don’t think Joseph Goebbels had anything on US and European media today.
That propaganda as a strategic and political instrument has been refined to a huge extent over the past 70-odd years since Goebbels first picked up on Freud’s lessons on how to influence the unconscious mind, and the ‘mass-mind’, as a way to ‘steer’ an entire people, not just as a means to make them buy detergent. These days, the media can make people believe just about anything, and they have the added benefit that they can pose as friends of the people, not the enemy.

60 Prominent Germans Appeal Against Another War In Europe: "It Is Not About Putin. What Is At Stake Is Europe"
Submitted by Tyler Durden: Two weeks ago, as the S&P was preparing to surge on the latest round of all time high market-goosing algo trickery by the FOMC, 60 prominent German personalities from the realms of politics, economics, culture and the media were less concerned with blinking red and green stock quotes and were focused on something far more serious to the future of the world: the threat of war with Russia. The open letter to the German government, parliament, and media, excerpted here, was signed by more than 60 prominent German personalities and published in the weekly Die Zeit on Dec. 5. The initiators were Horst Teltschik (CDU), advisor to then-Chancellor Helmut Kohl at the time German of reunification; Walther Stützle (SPD), former Secretary of State for the Ministry of Defense; and Antje Vollmer (Greens), former Bundestag Vice President. Teltschik said, in motivating the appeal, “We are giving a political signal that the justified criticism of Russia’s Ukraine policy should not wipe out all the progress that we have made in the past 25 years in relations with Russia.”
Below is an excerpted translation (source) of the original letter found here.
Nobody wants war. But North America, the European Union, and Russia are inevitably driving towards war if they do not finally halt the disastrous spiral of threats and counter-threats. All Europeans, including Russia, are jointly responsible for peace and security. Only those who do not lose sight of this goal can avoid fatal actions.
The Ukraine conflict shows that the quest for power and domination has not been overcome.

Most Hateful Feminist Quotes Of 2014
By : This
year has witnessed a plethora of disturbing comments by influential
mainstream writers, feminists, progressives, and others manifesting
hostility to due process and college men accused of sexual assault.
Which do you think is the most egregious?
1. Amanda Childress, sexual assault awareness program coordinator at Dartmouth College, declared that campus policies aren’t going far enough to protect students. She asked, “Why could we not expel a student based on an allegation?” Dartmouth defended Childress’s comment, noting that she “was asking a question—a provocative one—meant to generate dialogue around complex issues….”
2. Ms. Magazine quoted Caroline
Heldman, a professor at Occidental College, on suits filed by men for
alleged violations of their due process rights in connection with sexual
assault claims: “These lawsuits are an incredible display of entitlement, the same entitlement that drove them to rape.”
3. California’s new “affirmative consent” law requires “affirmative” consent at each step of a sexual encounter on its college campuses. The co-author of the bill in the state assembly, Bonnie Lowenthal (D-Long Beach), was asked how an innocent person is supposed to prove consent. She said, “Your guess is as good as mine.”
