JM -“I have, in no way, ignored chazal. Still waiting to see that a yid gets punished for a goy’s actions.”
While off-hand, I don’t think that anyone would be punished for s/o else’s actions -that isn’t the case over here. Over here we were talking about being punished for Not protesting -ie keeping quiet. This I have a Rayah from Iyuv. He was punished for keeping quiet about Pharoh’s idea about enslaving the Jews. Kal V’chomer a Jew would be punished for this.
“And if that is the case, still awaiting proof that our role as Frum yidden is to try to protest and educate the goy. If anything, I’d think such actions of the goyim should awaken us to do more mitzvos, work on our avodas Hashem, as we might need many more zechusim than usual”
IMHO, your statement is too general to say one way or another. It would depend on what they were doing.
But even if talking in general -the Lubavitch Rebbe zt’l held you should. He started this 7 Mitzvos project to do just that.
