    Okay, gotcha. How about this: Google “Accepting Our Own: The Bias Against Black-Hatters” in the YU Observer, for an analysis of attitudes about Hareidim.

    Sure, that’s fine.

    Is this about companies / stores who make black hats?

    I would hope that such attitudes are only prevalent in immature students, but are eventually outgrown.

    I wish. They are just as prevalent in older, more “mature” folks — albeit they will express themselves differently, in more “sophisticated” language.

    It really isn’t any different than the non-Orthodox being very liberal and accepting of everyone — except Orthodox Jews.

    Or non-Jewish liberals being very open minded and accepting of everyone (including, often, of anti-semites) but all that love and accepting ends before it comes to Jews.

    I thought it was a great article. Now if we could just can the bigotry against modern orthodox and religious Zionists expressed by some commenters in forums like this….

    A comment like that serves to reduce achdus, and negates the positive effect of the article.

    The same way referring to it on Yeshivah World is to no positive gain. (It’s the kind of thing Joseph would do.)

    Together with the deleted posts, this thread threatens to be the most machlokes causing thread in recent CR history.

    You can all call each other bigots on some other website. Thread closed.
