“whenever the government tries to tell us how to do anything, it doesn’t end well.”
The government wants us to have regents and we’ve been doing that for quite a while and there hasn’t been any problems until people from the Chassidishe velt complained.
“Let’s say you personally believe children should have a modern chinuch, or a litvishe chinuch, or a yekkish one – you need to respect the chasidishe opinion on chinuch.”
Stop with the ridiculous multi-cultural rhetoric. I don’t have to “respect” their chinuch if I think it causes harm to their own and indirectly causes harm to the rest of Klal Yisrael.
“You have no right to pass judgement and allow the goyim to be rodef fellow yidden just because you think they have a “valid taanah”
What about their actions causing the government to be rodef our institutions, don’t they have to care about that?
As ubiquitin wrote there are a lot of distractive arguments being put forward but in the end of the day the NYT’s article is correct in its basic point, many chassidishe schools give a terrible education to their students. It’s not “Hate Speech” and they need to change for this problem to be solved.
