I suspect the real reason why people make snarky remarks about Daas Torah is because they believe that they know at least as much as “some old out of touch guy sitting his little room”. (???).
Absolutely. And contrary to that he has mentioned on several occasions in different threads that it is out of reverence for the Rav that he feels the questions are “silly”. Sort thru your annoyances carefully so they can fit into the appropriate boxes.
