OP, this is Latma. Kind of like quoting The Onion as a serious news report.
He is doing a satire on what he THINKS chilonim feel and think. _________________ But then again, I'm a dragon.
"The best way to keep a prisoner from escaping is to make sure he never knows he’s in prison."

Not only satire. Hearing and reading. he says ARABS at the end. @@ _________________ Do you live for the future the present the past?

If anyone cares, some stranger may critique my life
I may be revered or defamed and decried
But I tried to live right

Amother - I see you have a problem with satire.
Maybe I don't get the satire, but clearly he is portraying the views of many posters here as has been evident in recent posts.
Bubbele - That's what satire is all about. He is portraying the views of many people in general and then he surprises you at the end by referring to Arabs and making everyone aware of the double standard. Are you with me?
The man in the clip is saying many of the horrible things that people say about chareidim, but would never dream of saying about Arabs because hey, that would be racist. He is trying to make the viewer ask himself, "Why is it okay to say these things about chareidim, if I myself would say it's bigoted and racist to say them about Arabs?"

Not to mention that the Arabs have international support. Who cares about the chareidim? We have come full circle. The Jews had no defenders among the nations and were preyed upon, so they reinvented themselves to have their own state like everyone else. Now the Jews in their own state are so much like everyone else that they are fearless to attack the defenseless Jewish Jews who have no defenders among the nations.

having lots of kids so can LIVE off bituach leumi - does bituah leumi cover your bills?!?!?
I actually had a friend tell me half seriously that she wanted to have more kids so that she could get more BL. I pointed out that the amount she is getting for her 4 kids is enough to send one of them to gan. I just figure her husband must be in charge of the family budget.

Would you please clarify what you mean by this? Word to the wise: do think first.

I mean that that the chareidim are to the Israelis as the Jews are to the nations. Despised and, when in fashion, a free target.
(I sense that I should resent the suggestion that I might not think. It doesn't sound so friendly.)
