-Assault on the Yeshiva world and Lakewood bnei Torah, several websites and podcasts have publicly attacked lakewood bnei Torah and talmidim after airing an interview of people who got themselves in financial trouble. The extreme circumstances of these individuals was used to blame the Yeshiva system and paint with a broad brush the entire yeshiva world. The personal story of these individuals is far from the average  yeshiva bochur or kollel youngemeit, yet was pretended to be as if they were part of the regular system. YWN website used the story with an anonymous letter demanding all yeshiva boys are taught financial literacy NOW. Of course no roshei yeshiva were quoted  in the  letter or even asked for an opinion.  Sadly the frum online media needs clickbate to remain relevant to keep up with social media agendas.  It's ironic that while the cost of living for frum families is high, the frum media keeps pushing gvir culture and social pressure living but blames it all on the yeshivos.

  1. If the Democrats appoint Murphy they are just showing that they have not gotten the message. The party needs to move to center if they ever want to regain their lost votes.

  3. Replacing the stupid looking bricks when the sidewalks of downtown will do nothing to improve the downtown economy. Just as it did nothing to improve the economy the last time the sidewalks were ripped out and replaced with these stupid looking bricks

    1. Sure it will help, some business will get a 3 million dollar contract. Are they not part of the economy? Like everything governmental, it helps those that are connected.

  4. RY are as much sycophantically culpable for gvir culture as just about any other part of the toady community, including the old past generation gvirim.
    They preferred that materialistic culture over & denigrated any semblance of professionalism. Probably that's because it was less competition to their own standing.Furthermore, as long as somebody was/is a bit of a gvir, irrespective of whether he is a sinner; a corrupting influence; an half-way OTD loser; a vacuous windbag; in all other aspects, he is/would be fawned over, plaques come by the months, his vices are tolerated, & his children will still be fatuously courted in shidduchim etc.

  5. That's great that our smart township is spending a million dollars for sidewalk and lighting downtown, so the homeless won't pish over each other before going to sleep on the new sidewalks

    1. The bricks were put there in the first place because a big honcho politician had a relative in the brick business ...yup that's how lakewood corruption works

  6. Sure, the brick layer probably charged double the actual cost of the service, and split the extra profit with his mishpacha. Same thing true with many of the "improvements" in town

  14. The gvir culture definitely contributes by alienating the middle class as fundraisers and roshei mosdos chase after the wealthy and honor them it automatically sidelines the pashut families who are made to feel like losers who can't get into schools get no honor or respect from anyone as we only celebrate celebrities influences rich guys or big knockers

    Rabbonim and roshei yeshiva are not accessible to the average yid after having been hijacked by the gevirim and powerful
    We have elitist culture destroying 2/3 of klal yisroel

    5. it's only a problem if you care about kovod and wealth and really want it for yourself. if you live your own life and don't care about having "access" to "big" Roshei Yeshiva (and are satisfied with having shaychus to your own Rov) or getting your picture in the paper or getting honored at dinners, you have no reason to feel jealous, self-conscious or "sidelined", and you certainly don't have to feel like a loser.
