On the subject of What is at Stake in the Trump Revolution. Chernovich hits a bullseye:
My friend, Eric, indeed has a problem. You see, Jews were separated from real power for 2,000 years. The genetic river, found it’s preferred path. And then was the Shoa and Gulag that destroyed civilization. All the brave ones died and cowards floated to the top.
Hareidy Jews, Litvaks, Satmar and Lubavitch etc., overvalue and worship brains and undervalue courage. Eric, would not know it, but he's just following the established cultural and the preferred genetic pattern. Do I need to spell it out?
OK, Lubavitcher Rebbe, who basically cares that he is a genetic genius? Has he displayed any courage? Was there an opportunity to display courage? Escapes Gulag and the Holocaust, lives in Berlin and Paris, attends universities, all paid for by the simple Russian and Polish Jews who were left to die, literally. But even more, he seemed derisive and dismissive of the Hasidim who displayed a lifelong heroism and courage. Never honored them, properly. Essentially, systematically attempted to shove the true memory of the Gulag and the Holocaust under the proverbial carpet.
By the way, Lubavitch, Satmar, Ger, Belz, Gdolim never faced any reckoning for the wrong “conceptzia”. As if it weren’t up to them to even try. Fake leadership. At the pivotal moments, brains don’t work, you need courage. Occasionally, it’s not enough. And the courage organ basically atrophied in a culture that worships and idolizes autistic brains and hereditary titles but not a valor. In a healthy culture, a King leads the army into a battle, not hides from it. And there were many examples of this courage in the Holocaust. Many heroes perished. But the hareidy culture that comes from the ruins is sick, it worships brains and titles. It brainwashes the young into this brain worship. It adores autistic thinking. Likewise, it spreads propaganda about sham leaders internally and to others who are too gullible, and don’t have the information that is covered and hidden under a thousand layers of fake news.
When Menachem Mendel Schneerson faced a test with Mi Hu Yehudi, he folded like a cheap chair. That was the moment, mass emigration from the former CCCP looming. It literally affects the Jewish people for generations to come. Instead, he opted for the movement that proudly posts memes about putting tefilin on pro-Hamas Jewish demonstrators. Movement that chases PR and money exclusively. That was the moment that a post Lubavich, Krinsky-Shemtov and Lazar Chabad was born. American Chabad that the Rebbe always wanted.
Getting back to Eric Weinstein. Grandfather, was an avid communist. Eric voted for Obama “enthusiastically”. Genius fails us when it’s not backed by courage. Small courage at that.
Vote for the Revolution!
The Rebbe could have shown even more courage by getting on a plane and coming to Israel during first Iraq War.Hr would have been hailed as the Messiah bu hundreds of thousands of our Sefardic brothers.But he remained in his office.
In France until 1942 he was not like his lesser known cousin Reb Zalman active in rescue in setting up schools orphanages and Reb Zalman did even more and more,but after the War he found no place,certainly not in the new Chabad. Rabbi Huberband and of Warsaw risked his life recording Orthodox life in the ghetto praising many but stating the truth about young men of a certain Chasidim sect.
In Hungary ,the rabbis were set to leave after April 1944 the giants there had nothing to say in terms of any form of resistance.Oy roei Israel Woe the shepherds of Israel
Because he showed little personal courage,that trait was not to be found amongst his followers The shluchim are into chanifah and money,not leadership.Mem like Shalini,Boteach and probably others were out.
Clearly the Rebbe was worried about completion,shown by history treatment of R SZ Schneerson,R Avrohom Mayorer and probably others.He did not wa
Nu ? When are we gonna hear your thought on C.S bruk’s kid being called the N word ?
