Jewish inside baseball talk:
Iโm not mad at Mark Carney for being Mark Carney and appointing a bunch of career antisemites to a committee to fight antisemitism that will be used to target Jews like me.
He is a European social constructionist elitist to his core, he will always have a lingering hostility because of the dissonance we cause him.
My anger is towards
@holyblossom for enabling this obvious farce to take place. Another puffed up putz of a cantor gleeful in his self importance, a feckless rabbi who defaults into obsequious court Jew instead of proud leader.
At this point, I would love to go on a rant about female rabbis ruining everything, and this one could fuel an entire power point presentation, but that would imply that there are competent male rabbis to counter balance their example. There is not.
We have a cataclysmic failure of the entire rabbinate here in Canada. Honestly, what do they do?
Nothing. Granted, that is better than the self appointed โcommunity leadersโ and major organizations that are actively harmful.
Why should anyone respect the Jewish community when our leaders and institutions donโt even respect themselves?
Donโt like what Iโm saying because your rabbi is one of the good ones, he isnโt some gender studies communist and wouldnโt have allowed this. Fair enough, Iโm willing to believe it. There are a bunch of rabbis that I personally like as well. But I will continue to bully them until they actually do something productive.
Here is idea 1 out of 1000 that they could easily pull off:
Get 5 Rabbis to write a criticism of Carneyโs speech/committee for the obvious reasons and then declare that you are going to go to Ottawa on a specific date to have a meeting with Mark Carney and the Liberal Party on their role in enabling the antisemitism crisis they now admit is happening. If you have enough balls to follow through and go to parliament hill and make clear that the meeting would be on these terms, Omar Alghabra would be removed from the antisemitism commission instantly.
