One of our dear readers nudged me over the years to write what I truly think of voting, refusing to settle for hints. A 3,000-word manifesto by Hyehudi Editor was the result, and it goes far, far beyond the original example. Lesson: I pay attention to our readers (I don’t rush half-truths).
Inside peeks:
- Voting today might be like a North Korean concentration camp.
- We ought to pray desperately, scream until hoarse, even ‘bang our heads against the wall’.
- Understanding the wild story about the Jew who stabbed himself during bentching.
- The difference between “staying realistic” and revolutionary change.
- Geulah depends on madness…
Quotes:
- Kotzker Rebbe: “Don’t ask if something is possible. Ask if it is necessary!”
- “Don’t get even, GET MAD!”
- “A man’s prayer is not heard unless he places his soul in his palm.”
The manifesto WILL NOT be published on Hyehudi.org! It’s priceless, but answer the short survey and I’ll personally send you the file.
Look: We publish daily. We now show over 11,000 articles in 7 years. Now, it’s finally time to let your voice be heard in return — I read every single word. Comments are disabled site-wide, so I must find out if anyone is listening and what they’re hearing, what strikes you about our content, and exactly what I’m doing wrong (…!). I can’t read thoughts, you know (yet).
And I know the site itself is blocked by NetFree (which is why many of you subscribed to the daily newsletter!), but the survey isn’t blocked.
