what you are saying makes no sense. If I was spouting chareidi doctrines then you could pretend you are correct. but my point to you was not that I have seen the other side, my point was that I am not who you think I am.
You decided (speaking of assuming ultimate truths) that if I believe unfiltered internet is assur, I must be a flaming chareidi. I was telling you that my belief in the dangers of the internet comes from inside, truth and experience. I don’t spout doctrines just because someone else say to. I tossed my television out when I was modern because I ran a daycare center and saw how it was warping children’s minds. I make my own decisions based on what is right, not what my neighbors are doing.
How sad that you can’t even allow me to be someone with an opinion of my own because you can’t stomach anything that smells “black” to you. How sad for you that you are having a freak out about a system of arrogance because I personally, from my own life experiences have found a filter to be necessary. I have been able to make choices in my home based on what is right and wrong, even though it often runs against the grain of those around me. including my kids teachers. Are you able to do the same or do you need to reject everything that is chareidi in the same way you accuse me of accepting it?
You couldn’t possibly know whether or not you want to trade places with me cuz you havent an inkling where i am even standing. Does my desire for a filter automatically cause you to box me in to a specific place? apparently it does –
Suffice it to say that I have a close relative who is a therapist in a super-chareidi neighborhood, and I know what goes on. I would never trade places with you,
who said anything about chareidi, let alone super chareidi?
Why didn’t you fight me on my belief that phones need filters, why shadowbox the whole yeshivish culture as if it applied to this discussion?
Are you really that stuck in your racism? Are you really that incapable of making decisions for yourself? Wow.
