Sam2 thank you for your post.
Health I realise polite discussion is not appropriate here with you. You wish to stand up and defend Torah values, good for you. So do I, in my family we defend Torah values and people with prayer, learning and action. Action can take many forms, from doing local community volunteering, to being part of ZAKA or part of an IDF unit. I This thread was entitled ” is individualism allowed?” I applaud those frum young people able to combine Torah values and army service, a challenging thing to do, which merits great respect from me for each and everyone of those individuals. What a tragedy that in our world we insult each other so easily. I wish you well
