Jacques Chirac: "Isaac Schneersohn was the archivist of the spirit against the bureaucracy of barbarism."
Like Fishel, he was a son of Rov in Gomel. We mentioned this man in the podcast. This is important to our overall conversation. He was Kazenny Ravin in Chernigov. Politically active in Russia and in France. A businessman in France. Founder of Center of Contemporary Jewish Documentation (to document the Shoa). He had three sons: Boris, Arnold, and Michel. I'm publishing this here because it’s significant to the overall picture, to which I get to in a moment. Wiki. [in the footnotes there is an archived link to the original post about Fishel, from 2005.]
[This is a leftover post. I have a few of those. Maybe another one will see the light. Except this unfortunate family have been overshadowed by it’s darkest member. If people truly understood what happened, they would not celebrate Yud Shvat. It would be a proper day of mourning. Otherwise, it resembles a Cultural Revolution, a mass psychosis, and if Fishel was here, he would be able to reflect on it. Except you don’t need to be a professional to see it.
But maybe this psychosis is more widespread. Because what is going on in Chabad today, is a prefect imitation of Christianity, plus the grotesque videos. This Christianity is the legacy of Ramash and legacy of Lubavitch. It’s logical conclusion. Why was the immersible suffering if you end with up plain old Christianity? Except one has to be sorry for the young who are huddled to 770 for mass viewing. Every so often I hope that there must be a sane person among the kids, who sees it for what it is.]
Keep up your interesting work.
