    1. How can you be sure that the press or online reports about what they’re up to, believe or practice has any accuracy whatsoever?

    2. How can you believe accusations from people that left their community, especially if they left in some disputed circumstances?

    AAQ: Telegrams charge per word, not per letter

    Hence all the creative ways of making “one word” inclusive of multiple words.

    “in the dark, I believe. Otherwise, you can safely retreat.”

    The Halacha is that if someone breaks into your house, armed or unarmed — day or night, you can immediately blow his head off.

    About 100 years ago someone reported finding one of the lost Mesechtas of Shas. A Mesechta that hadn’t been seen in many many hundreds of years. People, including Talmidei Chachomim, believed and accepted it initially. But after a few months people started noticing subtle errors that proved it was a forgery, albeit written by someone who was very well acquainted with Gemorah and Aramaic to fool people for quite a bit.

    The frum community is much better off — and more effective in the halls of power — finding a gentile that we elect into office, that works for our communal needs, than to have a Jewish or frum person serve in office for us.

    Today, in the 21st century, there is more “reverse racism”, i.e. anti-white racism, such as affirmative action, giving preferences to non-whites, falsely accusing all whites of subtle racism, teaching school children that by definition whites are predators and non-whites are victims, is far more prevalent than old anti-black racism.

    Harping on racism (even where it is non-existent) is 90% of the Democrat Party’s political strategy to win office and stay in power.
