  • @DrorEyal36 First of all to start, I never call you by any bad name or a Nazi. So what you throwing on me, about what other people say to you. Even when Zihava protect you, you treat her in a very disgusting way, now you decided to do the same thing with me. That's i can't understand.

  • @DrorEyal36 Jew going to call a person Nazi, only if this person got called a Nazi himself, and no matter who is that person, so it's not a big surprise here.And that's right, many are welcome to Judaism, if they convert and become a real Jews, it's not a kind of game.And in my opinion we must be more united.

  • @DrorEyal36

    what congregation are you a part of?! to call a fellow jew "nazi" is chillul hashem, and if this has been your experience i apologize this is nonsense. Most people in the united states are really progressive, but i have had little experience in the orthodox world.

  • @pboisei I don't think he is making too definitive statements. People who exist in a comfort zone will unlikely become progressive. Rushkoff is a veteran in Marketing. "Marketing" might sound bad, or even be the wrong word. He thinks in a way that combines public perception with personal identity, and he may well be right.

  • @pboisei

    ok so i retract my statement and agree with some of what he said, but to generalize all jewry as close minded is a great mistake, true there is a rise in orthodoxy, but progressive judaism is alive and well.
