............ Jews should branch out a bit beyond Brooklyn, Lakewood, and Monsey so that they're harder to stereotype.

I"d bet if you engineered some price mistake on real estate in Kansas the ball would get rolling.

If most NYers saw the real estate prices in parts of Kansas they'd be sure it's a price mistake

If most of the US saw real estate prices in the NY area they would think its a price mistake too. Just one no one would ever take!

Stick a bunch of SDers, FWers, or FTers into one village and it would also have a reputation. Even more aggressive than DDers I'd wager.

If they only knew.

A man walks into a Catholic church and starts making a case for why Jesys is not messiah. He gets beaten to a pulp. Does that make him wrong?

What kind of DA question is that? Of course he is wrong.

Weak. And nothing to do with the topic on hand.

Just so happens that they don't flock to one zip code.

If you're making any argument at all, it's that Jews should branch out a bit beyond Brooklyn, Lakewood, and Monsey so that they're harder to stereotype.

So let's break this down.
You admit that there is a stereotype about Jews in a particularly religious town, that is being aggravated by 'deals' from this site, and the only lesson you can take out of it is that they should move?

The point is that SD FT FW are as bad or worse than DDFrs, just they live around the country and are not concentrated. But, sure, take twist it so that his point is not valid and your is the best.

SD, FT etc are not run by religious Jews for religious Jews.

Their sites have no relevance to this discussion.

Very relevant, it shows that the stereotype is unjustified...

"He did it too" is not a very compelling defense.

Jews are not allowed to earn over $50,000 a year, because otherwise it is a chilul hashem, there is a stereo type that jews are rich and earn more than everyone else, so because of a stereotype it is now against halacha for a jew to be rich.

The logic here is amazing. Oh that's right I forgot all rich people are bad people and we hate them. And kids too they suck.

Ugh these threads are a waste of everyone's time.

You seem to have a hard time understanding things. There is nothing wrong with seeking deals and discounts. There are many people who seek deals and discounts and jump on price mistakes. The fact that a certain deals site caters to a crowd that is concentrated in certain zip codes doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it...

As I pointed out upthread it seems that even Dan is aware of the negative effect it's having, which led him to the forehead smacking conclusion that 50,000 jews should disperse throughout America to avoid it.
