@HotForMoot That was the old generation. Full of optimism raised in the 60s hippie generation. Not anymore.

It’s actually heartbreaking how soft and pacifist Israelis actually are. There are like 8 million songs in Hebrew about throwing away all our weapons and picking strawberries together instead

@Yiddish_Liberty Also true. Yeshivas should train students to do more jobs than just being a rabbi. Jewish society would be so much richer if we had learned men running all sorts of businesses.

It's a division of labor. Instead of territory, my suggestion is split it by task. That way the Rabbi isn't doing everything cradle to grave for the entire town. If you were making a kids book series, and had all the various Jewish characters and places/institutions in a Jewish village then that's the same basic concept, the cheder Rebbi, kollel in the Beis Midrish, the grocer and mashgiach at the store and restaurant, the mohel, the mikvah, the minyan at the shul, the funeral home, the wedding venue, the catering for both, the gvir with a big business that can work remote. If you moved that whole thing to one place at one time it would just accelerate everything.

this worked at my local chabad in suburb of atlanta. about 20 years after establishment there are families who are observant who cite the chabad as the only reason they are. they plopped it right in the heart of a moderately large jewish population with zero orthodox shuls. worked like a charm.

@Yiddish_Liberty Very interesting observations. As someone who would be considered BT I totally agree that it’s similar to OTD. Especially with the way some of my more reform family has reacted.

I think it's mainly a function of the Internet. Goyim are posting Charedi and Chasidic rabbis videos. Charedi and Chasidishe rabbis are sharing videos on the Internet that goyim are sharing. So naturally and all the more so secular Jews are online and seeing a video from a Rabbi and it can appeal to him on many levels. Every secular Jews social media feed is now filled with antisemtism, Jewish content, Israel content 24/7, it's inescapable. Israel and politics have also become inescapable for religious Jews on the Internet. The crossover is happening. Jewish social media has less and less segregation. Everything is being reinvented. Everything existing in one place untethered from it's geography or time and it's all colliding. That's why so much if it is described as slop. You take the same ingredients and in the wrong ratios they can make slop, but perfect the recipe through trial and error and eventually you can have a good dish. That's why I say it's heading to a sort of modox but completely different than ModOx™ .

I guess the best way to put it is that I believe there will be a meeting in a very messy muddy gray middle. Very fluid because you have a massive buffet and everyone is making their own plate, but we are increasingly in the same dining room and eventually it might end up one big table. So the question becomes who's catering and who's sitting at the head of the table.

Not a Good Jewish Girl✡️
Not a Good Jewish Girl✡️@estherzelda0514·
I have an aunt that was a total baddie, total Free Love Boomer into her early 30s, got loads of abortions, then completed her PhD and settled down with a lawyer. Divorced him, another lawyer. Divorced him, third lawyer. Separated from him, tried to make it work for years, had an affair with a guy that owned a contracting firm, got a quick divorce and was at the altar two weeks after it was finalized. Same deal, it turned sour after a while, they both found Jesus, got church counseling, it didn't work out, started dating the tallest and wealthiest retired lawyer at her church, just married him last year. So she's on marriage number five, in her 60s, never had kids of her own, and has absolutely no issue whatsoever finding educated, wealthy, good looking men with all their hair interested in her. There is no wall. There never was a wall. Men want wives and female companionship. If you're an extroverted, nice, happy, and take reasonably good care of yourself, you can find love at any age.

@mycr_karenina I think the answer is a little more complicated than yes or no. The Rebbe had a very strong stance on the complete annexation of Gaza. Now if that extends to the WB or includes desecrating the land is another story.

For my Lubavitch moots: Do you think when the Rebbe spoke about the importance of שלימות הארץ, he was aware of and condoning its ideological consequences: i.e., terrorizing & forcing displacement of Palestinians, vandalism, uprooting olive trees, stealing & killing animals, etc?

My father interned with Rabbi Joachim Prinz. At a restaurant, Prinz ordered tomato soup & they brought clam chowder. Returning it Prinz said: "Your first lesson in the rabbinate. Somewhere nearby is a congregant who thinks I ordered clam chowder, saw them, and sent it back."

Caleb Wilson on continuing to play in Summer League when other high draftees have sat out: “I feel like I’m different than all of them. Not to say they don’t, but I enjoy basketball. I love this sh*t… I felt yesterday was weird because I expected Darryn to play. So when I came into the game, I didn’t have the right mindset.” (via @JoelXLorenzi)

@zadokism You def have a fair point, but I don’t understand the Farro hate by other Orthodox Jews. Is it better to let popular influencers speak about Israel and Jews with no knowledge, or try to befriend them and show them what it’s actually like?

Clavicular will either be great for Israel's normalization amongst Zoomers (desperately needed), OR - he'll be a complete disaster that embarrasses us all, while plummeting Farro's reputation after having such poor judgement. The margin for error is as thin as it gets here.
