2018-07-31 WATCH Jim Jefferies Show on Comedy Central @ 10:30 EDT

I just saw the promo for tomorrow night's Jim Jefferies Show on Comedy Central (10:30 EDT). Jim says they will tackle Male Circumcision. The show follows a comedy Roast so in the promo Jim says: "If you want to see dickheads eviscerated, this is your night."

You may recall we protested Jim's stand-up comedy show in Joliet in April https://www.facebook.com/events/2060488737528303/ because he was mocking intactness. He reacted to our protest on Instragram before he even took the stage:


You might not care for his snarky rejoinder, but he's a comedian.

He's also good-hearted. His sign-off motto every week is "I'm Jim Jefferies and I think we can all do better."

I would be SHOCKED if this show tomorrow didn't have a pro-intact slant even though the whole reason we protested in April was the bit in his current stand-up tour about how intact men should be ashamed and keep hidden until they "get that taken care of." He brags that he cut his son so he'll be favored with oral sex. (Hear him make those jokes in Jim's new stand-up comedy special on Netflix 'This Is Me Now'). In a prior tour he also joked that he's cutting his son so he and his boy will be the same. He says: "I'm not circumcised, I just need him to be an inch shorter."

His pro or con stance on foreskin seems to fluctuate with whichever punch line is easier. But his present weekly show on Comedy Central is mostly about fixing society's ills, and he has a competent research staff. I have a hard time believing he will find intactivists to be a greater ill than forced genital cutting. But either way, with circumcision the more people talk about it the more boys are saved.

I finally watched the Jim Jefferies comedy special (THIS IS ME NOW) on Netflix. This was the culmination of the tour we protested. But the final shows that were filmed happened in the UK.

Amazingly, he has the talent to make his own opinion seem stupid, like what we shouldn't do. I mean he's standing there telling mostly-intact UK guys and gals that UK dicks are gross, and they're laughing.

I think the part about him cutting his son is truthful, so his dick jokes tonight will probably not sound like he's on our team, but the research his staff wedges into the bit will probably come down on our side (because the more you know the worse it gets).

Summary of what I just watched:

ZERO evidence sought or presented on the actual anatomical and functional losses to circumcision done "right" and ZERO attention to circumcisions that go wrong.

Total fixation on Israeli adults' preference for less smell, with no discussion of how easy it is not to smell, and ZERO discussion of why it's so urgent to force the choice on the child instead of letting him decide for himself.

One man-on-the-street in Israel suggests parents shouldn't be deciding, but the Bloodstained Man there nonetheless accuses him of not being woke about what he's missing and that derails any discussion of the child's rights (but who knows what they edited out).

At one point Jim falsely asserts there is no such thing as intact porn. He falsely suggests "all the gays love it cut" as the words "our camera man is gay" flash on the screen and the camera view wags its "head" no. Then he says "But straight women prefer cut" and likewise seems to be getting pushback from someone off-screen. In the end Jim seems to let the idea that he has less penis sink in and he gets a bit forlorn, but it passes as he consoles himself with dick jokes.

All-in-all, could have been worse, considering Jim's prior remarks, but I'll see you all outside Jim's Chicago Theatre show on September 28.

The Jim Jefferies Show produces a podcast after each episodes. They discussed the circumcision segment for only a couple minutes.

a) Jim asserted that the gay camera man actually preferred cut penis, but that Jim screwed up the bit by saying circumcised when he meant uncircumcised. They kept the mistake take because it was funnier. I don't believe it.

b) Jim asserted that he has bloodstained protestors at all his shows. I think this is comedic shorthand, a.k.a. also a lie. I'm very confident that the only show where he's had circumcision protestors was Joliet (and we weren't bloodstained). It's a sure bet that he'll see us again in Chicago on September 28th.

Update: On his show August 28th, they discussed religion's toxic effect on society. To prove we could all get along, Jim sat down for a drink with a priest, a rabbi, and an imam.

Jim first found common ground by pointing out that all three clerics - plus Jim the atheist - are circumcised. This is to say, Jim found the rare priest who doesn't know the Catholic church is profoundly AGAINST circumcision.

"If Ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing." -Gal. 5:2

"...cease entirely from circumcision, since, whether or not one places hope in it, it cannot be observed at all without the loss of eternal salvation. "
-The Pope

It's also of note that Jim didn't include a Hindu to represent the third largest religion (dwarfing Judaism like 30 to 1).
