Commentary: A Few (Among Many) Suggestions For Antifeminist Women

 Give up all of your property—including your bank accounts and cars—to your husbands, fathers, brothers, adult sons, and/or other men in your lives. Give up your jobs and/or education. Refuse to vote in this year’s elections except for if you vote how your men tell you to vote. 

If you even ever leave your houses again—and not to just vote in person—don’t leave the houses without your men’s permissions. Also don’t do anything that your men forbid (e.g., even undergo medical procedures)—no matter how much your lives would be endangered, and even if your men are abusing you and/or your minor children. Additionally, never leave the house without looking as young, fertile, and healthy as possible. 

Then, either live by your own antifeminist standards or learn to appreciate what you have or—after you lose everything, had—because of the fight by women’s-rights advocates, whom were derided as “feminists” (female supremacists) and took the derisions as badges of honor.  By the way, no antifeminist woman is a woman of valor, ‎as ⁦‪women‬⁩ of ⁦‪#valor‬⁩ (⁧‫נשים החיל ‬⁩) don’t deride real ⁦‪women’s-rights‬⁩ advocates. In fact, real women of valor pursue justice and judge with righteousness. Real women of valor also plead for the causes of the poor and the needy—which many women even in the West were before the women’s-rights movement occurred.

Thankful For Vindication By יהוה? Let Me Explain Why

 One thing for which I’m thankful this year: יהוה vindicates in His own time, and I don’t have to defend the people whom were giving me drek when they need someone to defend them. They might get to acutely feel the effects of having driven away people whom would have otherwise spoken up for them when other people were given them drek. 

A few specific incidents come to mind, with one incident being that someone who frequently wrote k’tav hara against me—a public figure within the genealogy realm—has gotten her Sefardi Jewish heritage questioned (and in quite the passive-aggressive way, too). I don’t know whether she knows about it, and I don’t care to bring it to her attention either way. I thought about speaking up for her, even though she treated me and others similarly, though I just let it go—if she can write k’tav hara, she can read it.

In any case, I hope that if she ever reads the allegations against her, she feels at least similarly to how I and others felt when she would mistreat us—especially when she encouraged others to gang up on us. 

PS In case anyone is curious to know who she is, Google “Sephardic Jews in Poland?” 

The allegations are unfair, wild, and not unlike what she has written about others and me.

Update: screenshot and quote in case the k’tav hara against the genealogist gets deleted after all (My problem can be that I’m too nice even regarding people whom treat me like drek, and I ended up rebuking the person in question about his allegation once he recently used a different forum to try to gaslight me into thinking he did not know what Jewish DNA is): 

“Generally, the simplest explanation is best. An Ashkenazi genealogist with a large platform claims that their TALALAY ancestors from Mogilev, Belarus, adopted the surname in the 19th Century not from local Slavs called TALALAY but from a similarly named family in 14th Century Catalonia. Allegedly the family crossed Europe from one end to the other, secretly remembering (or misremembering) the surname for 500 years. There is no evidence to support the claim. There is no evidence of equivalent family histories. Anyone is free to mythologise their ancestors like this, but it is not genealogy. Is it more likely a surname was adopted locally or from someone generations and a continent away?

“I think such fantasies contain a belief that Sephardic ancestry is somehow superior to Ashkenazi. It seems to me that the story of how a family reached eastern Europe from the Rhineland, survived the collapse of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and the horrendous history thereafter, is in every way equally deserving of serious study.”

Commentary: What Should Humble The Arabs and Us Jews Alike

Ishmael was an in-law father of his nephew Esau, and Esau was the twin brother of Jacob. Esau’s and Jacob’s common grandparent with Ishmael’s children (including Esau’s wife Machalat) was Abraham, whose brother Nahor married his niece (Haran’s daughter) Milcah (whom was the mother of Rebecca’s father, Bethuel). Abraham, meanwhile, married his (and Haran’s and Terah’s) sister Sarah.

So, think about this: Isaac and Rebecca were primarily once-removed first cousins, and Isaac was also a nephew to his father (Abraham) and to his mother (Sarah). He was a double nephew to Nahor and Haran, and an in-law nephew to his first cousin Milcah. He also was in-law first cousin to his uncle Nahor, and a direct and once-removed first cousin to Bethuel (which also made him a second cousin to Rebecca). 

Keep in mind that this made both Isaac and Rebecca twice-removed first cousins to Jacob and Esau…

And I think that ought to humble us Jews and the Arabs a little more. We all are literally descended from a sibling couple (as Abraham and Sarah were children of Terah through different mothers), an avuncular (uncle-niece) couple, a multiethnic couple (It can be assumed that Rebecca’s unnamed mother was Aramean or Syrian, as Bethuel was Hebrew and Numbers describes Jacob as “‘a wandering Aramean’”), and a couple whom were once-removed cousins whom were related in other ways.

Commentary: The Real Reformation Day (Partly Originally A Twitter Thread)

 The real Reformation Day is February 19. February 19, 1377 was the day that John Wycliffe (ז״ל) was first officially persecuted by the state. October 31, 1517, by contrast, was the day that Martin Luther (ימ״ש) made a mockery of the martyrdoms of Wycliffe (whom persecution eventually fatally wore down) and Jan Hus (ז״ל, and whom would be directly martyred at the hands of a Germanic state). This mockery would culminate in an Antisemitic pamphlet through which Luther would incite violence from subsequent pogroms in Germanic states (including the pogroms during the German part of the Holocaust) to the violence that necessitated Israel’s self-defensive Simchat Torah War. After all, Luther “doubly hated God” once he read Scripture and was not willing to die for his professed faith. 

Luther (ימ״ש) (and Calvin, ימ״ש) also eventually moved to turn the Germanic states (and the city of Geneva) into “Christian” (Pseudo-Christian) theocracies (and their “theo” was not יהוה). He was therefore (along with Calvin) one of the first “Christian” (Pseudo-Christian) nationalists in modern history. Real reformers like Wycliffe and Hus (ז״ל וה״י״ד) would not be again until people like Tyndale and Lopez (ז״ל וה״י״ד, and the latter of whom was a Jewish Christian of converso birth). 

Many who walk in the path of Luther (ימ״ש) (and Calvin, ימ״ש) therefore fail to realize that Luther (along with Calvin) was among the “Reformer” wolves in sheep’s clothing whom were well versed enough in Scripture to deceive even the elect about what they were. Others who walk in the Lutheran (and Calvinist) path fully realize what the Pseudo Reformers were and even aspire to be elect-deceiving wolves (Among those wolves are Eric Conn and Doug Wilson). Whether simply misguidedly or full maliciously, then, they might as well be celebrating Samhain if they’re going to celebrate October 31st as Reformation Day.
