Charedi vs Charedim

Disgruntled Charedi:

"The charedim are short-sighted and need reading glasses to see the most obvious of facts. Their wearing some Occulus rift gadget that takes them back into a some virtual reality of collective suppression. They don't believe in their own abilities and power to choose right from wrong, thus building a virtual ghetto and continuing the vicious cycle of poverty and dependency which brings prejudice and a breakdown of trust from the other camp. They have an ingrained lack of will power imagination pro-activity etc.

I have firsthand experience from both camps. Whereas the other camp has proven their belief in my abilities and followed through with actions accounting to a fairly large sum of assistance, Iv'e come across more than once people from my own camp who didn't follow through on some small sums or other assistance. I'll tell you all about it some day. I'ts a painful and difficult subject."

Trying to mitigate the problem:
"Please tone down your rhetoric, as it will achive nothing. 

Would you like to change the facts on the ground?  Then read the first paragraph above again.
Change can only happen after there is acknowledgement of the facts.

To explain these facts to the target audience - the Charedi public and its many levels of local, national and global leadership, one needs to have the tools and the qualities to reach them and the stamina to see this through.

There is a montain of baggage to overcome: historic, economic, soietal and a host of other factors, all of which have a direct influence on the perpetuation of the current situation.

One small example: If only we could silence the gossip mills of a certain grouping in the Cahredi camp, this would allow reason to rear its head - and stay up...

More on this when I have more time"
