It’s both all about us and not solely about us.
Your redemption is inextricably intertwined with the opportunities you give to others to find freedom.
That is true גאולה
Applicable in almost any contemporary situation you can think of.

Minister of Finance and the new governor of civillian affairs in the West Bank, Bezalel Smotrich: "I liked a tweet that was calling to erase the village of Huawara, Because I think the village of Huawara should be erased. The state should be the one erasing it."
שר האוצר @bezalelsm בראיון עמי לוועידה הפיננסית של דמרקר: ״עשיתי לייק לציוץ שקרא למחוק את הכפר חווארה, כיוון שאני חושב שאת הכפר חווארה צריך למחוק. המדינה היא זו שצריכה למחוק אותו״.

Dear community members,
At approximately 3 a.m. this morning, an unknown individual wearing a ski mask ignited and threw a hand-thrown incendiary weapon “Molotov cocktail” at the front door of a Greater MetroWest #NewJersey community synagogue.

Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Watch the whole thing to see just how much this recycled right-wing moral panic has been around for much too long.

Something is happening in religious communities.
In my story published just yesterday, Steve Greenberg, executive director of Eshel, an advocacy org for LGBTQ Orthodox Jews, remarked that until recently, coming out as gay meant you had to leave the community.
Not anymore.
BREAKING: An immense step forward. Pope Francis calls for the decriminalization of homosexuality worldwide: "Declaring such laws 'unjust,' Francis said the Catholic Church can and should work to put an end to them. 'It must do this. It must do this.'"

Goyim don't get to decide which Judaism is real. Jews who play along with these games, understand that you're pawns for them too. You can see what they will do when you're no longer useful.

There is no area of our lives that is not touched by halacha, nor is there a challenge that the halachic system cannot meet.... there must exist a way for the halachic system to help them navigate their life regardless of their gender identity.
Today in @jdforward, I make the argument that Halachic Judaism values - and can make space for - human dignity. forward.com/opinion/532414/o…

Ady Walter's powerful film SHTTL is shot entirely in Yiddish and Ukrainian (subtitled in English), and two of the characters are native Yiddish speakers – a rarity in Yiddish cinema today. @TheJewishMuseum @FilmLinc forward.com/forverts-in-engl…

I'm trying to focus on HaKarat HaTov, recognizing the good. That is, seeing goodness in life despite whatever else might be going on, and reciting blessings whenever I can.
“A person is obliged to recite 100 blessings every day." -Talmud, Menachot 43b

One reason we fasted on 10th Tevet is to mark the tragic translation of the Torah into Greek.
Jews recognize it as a cataclysmic event, that led to radical misinterpretation of the Torah, altering the face of the world's spiritual trajectory.
In fact, the late Pope agreed(!):
