Sorry for not responding sooner, I haven’t logged in since yesterday afternoon.

I’ll post some of her qoutes from the New York Post interview that are factually incorrect. Keep in mind that as a Chassidic woman myself (although not Satmar), I can relate to her description of a fanatic chassidic upbringing (Yes, families like hers exist, but there are only a handful of them), however, she chose to protray that as the standard Chassidic lifestyle.

(Liar.)

NY Post: You say there were many ways in which you felt like your safety was not protected, because of the Hasidic reliance on faith.

[non-Hasidic]

(If you ever wondered what they teach in Satmar, now you know.)

(Liar.)

(Ouch. Personal insult.)
