YungermanS maybe if we listened to your long standing YWN campaign and did teshuva Harold would run. It always seems to be the problem you raise on the site.

You obviously don’t care or feel the pain of other yidden. May Hashem bless you with sadness & stressful times, this would be a blessing to you, perhaps when this occurs IY”H you will then learn & get a feeling of other peoples pain & start to care about them & try to help them & remove their pain, as is occurring in klal yisroel now.
May Hashem save you from your tragic future before its too late
