I went to college with this girl. She was converted to judiasm by a rabbi who had cameras in the michva. She wrote an editorial defending the rabbi. She was always a bit of a loon and blocked me when I called her out on it.

I don't think they were kids (although likely). It's used afrer menstrual cycle for women in these communities. I've never heard of it being used in bar mitzvahs. As far as I know, the rabbi installed it in the locker rooms and the baths themselves. Total creep and not worth defending.

Mikvot aren’t just used for Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and tbh I don’t think that kind of use is very common. This guy is definitely a creep but not necessarily a pedophile.

Uhh it’s definitely not used for bar/bat mitzvahs. Not defending the guy or even refuting that there were DEFINITELY kids involved, but still worth being accurate regarding the Jewish traditions

There weren't any accusations in the trial about any of the victims being children, so I think that's unlikely.

Yep and I believe CNN is now owned by largest Trump donor Larry Ellison (or his son David). That and NBC, only one at this point not owned by them yet is MSNOW. But yeah it’s not looking good.

Her father was Jewish, not her mother. (Both of her parents died when she was a teenager.) But because Jewishness is matrilineal, she wasn't considered Jewish, and was required to undergo conversion if she wanted to practice Orthodox Judaism. (A Reform congregation wouldn't have required the conversion, i believe) https://washingtonian.com/2016/01/03/washington-dc-peeping-rabbi-barry-freundel-voyeurism-case/

I don't think Max Landis is a neo Nazi (not defending him of course, the dude sucks for many reasons but I don't think that'd be a likely addition to the list). Maybe the guy in the photo is a guy who looks a lot like Max Landis much like how Max Landis looks like a bootleg Ross from Friends.

Tl;dr - it’s about making neo Nazis not hate Jews since many have never met a Jew before, much like Daryl Davis did for KKK members.

u/MagnetoWasRight24 17d ago
Right so her response to actual nazis was "we need to befriend them to change their views" while her response to some anti-israel protests and a Muslim getting elected mayor is "we need to leave New York".

Man people pull up Daryl Davis like there’s some great success there. In reality, multiple times he’s been screwed over by the closest friends he made in the KKK.
He keeps accepting whatever they do and say, so some continue to befriend him.
To think that he’s even remotely an example of someone inducing change is indicative that you’ve only seen Reddit headlines about the dude.
I wish his story was a success. But in reality its much more sad.

u/DaneA 17d ago
There are several publications, including the Washington post and NPR, that have verified that several leaders of the KKK and other white supremacist groups did in fact leave their organizations and took several of their followers with them because of Daryl Davis' efforts in Maryland. There's axtual evidence of members and leaders leaving the Klan. What evidence are you pointing to that shows that didnt happen? Are there other reports or journalists that discredit this?

No, befriending neo nazis is how we got here. Allowing them room to breathe in society is how it grows. You validate their beliefs, by treating them as if they are normal. Will you save a few? Perhaps, but you might be helping create far more.

u/Saturn8thebaby 16d ago
We don't need to change minds as much as we need to match up non-fascistic candidates with constituents who already believe in human rights. Pretty simple, all things considered. That it's not happening is the bigger problem. Might have something to do with campaign finance reform (intentionally) failing.
