@Huju,
The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic recession have negatively affected many people’s mental health and substance use disorders. During the pandemic, about 4 in 10 adults in the U.S. have reported symptoms of anxiety or depressive disorder, studies found that many adults are reporting specific negative impacts on their mental health and well-being, such as difficulty sleeping (36%) or eating (32%), increases in alcohol consumption or substance use (12%), and worsening chronic conditions (12%), due to worry and stress over the coronavirus. As the pandemic wears on, ongoing and necessary public health measures expose many people to experiencing situations linked to poor mental health outcomes, such as isolation and job loss.So my dear Huju, relax and give it a rest.
PS try davening more, it can relax youSorry it looks like i fell into the troll trap, let me wish all my MO friend ah git yur
@huju, One person dies every 36 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease. About 655,000 Americans die from heart disease each year—that’s 1 in every 4 deaths, a major factor of that is stress. How about stop being worried about what other people are doing or if the frum lifestyle can continue to exist, you just may save yourself some heart issues
First of all Reb Dovid, being that this is your first post, Welcome and I hope you becime and active member of the CR.
Unlike @aviria I didnt grow up MO and dont carry the anger or baggage when one does a lifestyle change and am able took at this dispassionatly, I do have to give him credit, my topics of debate at 14/15 was who makes the best pizza, the best ways to break into the yeshiva kitchen, how to sneak into bais medresh late without being noticed.
The MO movement is slowly heading to the history books, its either stagnant or diminishing, MO schools are closing or tacking right, YI shuls are merging or closing, and YU has had declining enrollment for years.
My two big gripes about the MO community are ,
[1] changing of mesorah and halacha to fit the agenda at hand such as ordination of “Rabba”s, Bittul Kiddushin, Womens Hakofos, mixing dancing at weddings,mazel tov greeting on a gay marriage in the shul bulletin, elevating tikkun haolam drivel to be equal with halacha.
2. I found the most intolerant people to be MO, they would not credence to an opposing view, this manifested itself in the big way during covid when the MO opinion mattered and everyone elses opionion was irrelevant.PT Barnum said it best, there is a gullible fool born every minute
@Huju ” My post took license to make an important point: Tehillim are important, but so is real-world medical precaution.”
Try davening more and worry less, it will reduce your stress level and may prevent a heart attack

Saigon # 2, need we say more?
@ Huju,”I have every confidence that the Torah will survive as long as Hashem wants it too.”
Great, now you can close out this thead.PS, you never responded to second part of my comments
@Huju,
I was going to respond with my GPA in college, on second thought I am not going to even dignify with a reponse.The Bllack Hat / Chasidish lifestyle started with a handfull of people who survived churbon europe and is the growing by leaps and bounds and expanding in Rockland, Orange counties in NY, Ocean County NJ, Brooklyn, Florida and overseas in London Anwerp and Israel.
New communities are starting in Staten Island, Linden, Union, Bloomingberg etc, while the MO communties are either stagnant or shrinking.My advice to you, you stated that your belief is minimal, we managed and thrived for over 80 years we will manage just fine in spite of your pessimistic musings, its Elul now you really need to do some serious introspection and worry about your own house instead.
On the flip side of things, my friend just came back from a safari in Kenya, as soon as the plane hit 10,000 feet 3/4 of the passangers took of the masks never to be put on again during the flight, when a few mask zealots complained the flight crew laughed and said get use to it.
@AAQ, I prefer Meir Kahane layered approach, every Jew a .22
@Huju, “Real optimists don’t daven.” Your wrong on that, I daven, do my histadlus and leave it in Hashems hands, You on the other hand are a pessimist always worried about things not effecting you.

So am I, therefore I daven 3x daily Boruch alaynu and on Rosh Hasona and Yom Kippur I daven Unifah Tokef, not sure about your level of belief.@huju No, Yess, No and Yes

@huju, “I don’t think this model is sustainable”
Opinions are like shoes, everyone has at least two and they usualy stink@AAQ, I dont have a flight pattern,i fly all over the US and Europe, I just happen to bring this up as a example of great customer service, Spirit would have allowed the flight to leave with a empty seat and make me wait 4 hours for my flight.
@AAQ, I was in FLL and flying to LGA on Jetblue, the incoming flight had a weather delay of over 3 hours, there was a flight the was leaving to Westchester County Airport around the same time, I asked if I can switch to HPN No problem they said and gave me a boarding pass, no extra fees, no hassle and with a smile, I found a frum man on the flight who did the same thing and we split the $60 cost of a taxi from HPN to LGA.
Thats why I never fly Sprirt because something like that would never happen with sprirt@AAQ, I have no clue, I am not busy “vous yinnim tit”, I also dont take responsbilty for the guy driving at 85 MPH down a county road and flips.
PS if the airline cancels the majority of its flights for 5 consective days you know its garbage
