It's a mitzvah to avoid purchasing anything from the woke maniacs at Target who promote the worst תועבות and gender-dysphoria. Don't sell your souls to save a dollars. Avoid Target like the plague.
ReplyDeleteAre women also obligated?
DeleteDo you say a Beracha of על or ל?
And avoiding things like the plague has a new meaning after covid, when our geniuses decided that avoiding plagues is g - a - y.
All are obligated to protest Target's nonsense. Failure to do so means that you won't have a דעה when this madness creeps up ח"ו on your own progeny ר"ל. If you don't think the trend has already begun in our own מחנה, you're uninformed.
DeleteWell put.agree
DeleteWhich Rabbanim said not to say tachanun? The same ones who scream at chasidim when they skip tachanun? Hypocrites.

And some of us are willing to pay extra for features such as Yoshon, Pas Yisroel, Cholov Yisroel, Bishul Yisroel, shechitas bais yosef, and heimeshe hashgochos. And contrary to popular belief, the heimeshe hashgocho is not just a rubber stamp over the OU, there are real differences, including the temperature required to kasher equipment, the frequency of supervision, etc. In many cases, the heimeshe runs are special done and supervised 100% vs the national hashgachos that visit occasionally.
Delete1lb Haddar Penne in Evergreen is 1.69 vs Barilla at Walmart for 1.76. Glick 8oz tomato sauce is .67 vs Hunts @ walmart 0.69. If you shop smartly, you can save money.
Most 'heimishe' hashgachos don't care for Yoshon at all.
DeletePas Yisroel is rarely a halachic issue. It's pas palter, and if it's cheaper, it's muttar lechatchila.
Cholov Yisroel doesn't have anything to do with anything.
Bishul Yisroel is rarely an issue, and when it is, Heimishe hashgachos are not much better.
Shechitas Beis Yosef is not available with general heimishe hashgachos, unless you are willing to invest the time and effort to find it.
The OU is generally far better than Heimishe hashgachos, especially regarding kashering. And OU mostly doesn't require any kashering, an advantage over all 'heimishe' hashgachos.
Many of the 'chumros' that these Heimishe hashgachos have are absolute hogwash, not based on Torah or Halacha.
The 'heimishe' hashgacha scam must stop. On the rare occasions that they are meaningful, that is not enough to excuse the premiums they charge.
You are mistaken. Your "facts" aren't really so. Speak to a mashgiach that knows what goes on.
DeleteAB
DeleteYou are comparing non brand names with brand names for price comparison.
Maxwell House in store A is $10 and on Amazon Tasters choice is $14. Store A sells Jetfoil tinfoil for $8 and on Amazon sells Reynolds for $13. Glicks ketchup is $2.50 and Heinz on Amazon is $3.75. Hmmm Amazon must be more expensive.
Take a look check out how much Great Value pasta is.
I'm a former mashgiach, and I can attest to rabbanei hanmacshir don't care for any of that. You wouldn't believe the kulot they use, which you wouldn't allow in your (and I'm sure, their own) kitchen.
DeleteAnd by the way, Great Value pasta is 99¢ this week.
Ketchup is 99¢ at at Lidl till today.
Store brand coffee is also $4-something, but everybody, especially heimishe wants Taster's Choice, so pay for it.
Lakewood politicians are spending tax money like drunkens without even knowing what they are doing.

I would think there are many families that regret the site was not closed in 2021...Going up this year to Miron is clearly putting yourself and potential emegecy responders at great risk.
ReplyDeleteYour response is exactly what the Zionist regime wants. Fear is a tactic used by elitists to control people just like the lockdowns, masks and the crapcine.

DeleteAnonymousMay 20, 2024 at 5:44 PM Your response epitomizes someone whose thinking is controlled by others. You are not saying anything remotely of substance and just falling for the common mind control tactic of "if our enemies' are saying that it must be wrong"
Why is it that most frum American Jews cannot wrap their minds around the idea that going to miron is worth being moser nefesh for and in Israel it's a conversation???
ReplyDeleteBecause it isn't..duh
DeleteIt could even be assur
DeleteWhy is it that most frum Eretz Yisroel Jews cannot wrap their minds around the idea that going to miron is not worth being moser nefesh for and in America it's not even a conversation???
DeleteFTFY
Just curious, anyone have any clue on the religious significance of dancing around a fire? Why did the litvish yeshivos back in Lita (or Lakewood until the past 10 years) never find out about this "mitzva" that is worth being moser nefesh for?
Deleteinteresting religion.
ReplyDeleteLeave Jerusalem for Ukraine on the holiest days of the year and turn Lag BaOmer into something more important than the Regalim.
