Tasters Choice (Split From Pictures Thread)

[Ephraimh]

And I will say without assuming anything that you are dead wrong and were choshed biksherim which is certainly wrong according everyone.

This convo just took that bad turn from where there is no return, signing off. Good bye.

The truth is, in a world where some people don't have an issue shaking hands with opposite gender and in a world where the majority would laugh of someone who has an issue sitting next to women on a plane for a few hours how can you possibly explain to them that there are people who wouldn't look at a picture of a female (even clothed) and definitely try to avoid having an everyday product with one on it?

And even more,
Last week someone admitted here on the forums that he had visited a very inappropriate place and even brought along others,
He wasn't  called שוטה or sick,

Here there are people who try to avoid something for the sake of their and their children yidishkiet and they're being called שוטה and sick,

It guess it all boils down to "No need to better then I am"...

I actually kept quiet up to this point.... I see as useless to comment on these situations. However, you are wrong he was called out in that thread. I commented on it as well, I was debating with myself if I should've used stronger language..... The question is what for? You will not change his opinion on an Internet forum. There are many people here with different levels of observance, calling people out won't get them to change... As a matter of fact, if he openly admits to doing something that might be assur mideroysa it shows you where he is holding.

I don't get why "tolerant" folk are so intolerant of people they accuse of being intolerant. Tolerate these people the same way you would people who do thing much much worse. At very worst they're just being stupid.

Does a tolerant person need to be tolerant of intolerance?

If I were a tolerant person, I  would tolerate those who disagree with me. If I think cholent is disgusting and you think it's delicious, I can still tolerate you. If you are a racist and intolerant of others, I cannot tolerate your intolerance.

[Chapshnell]

With all due respect, some people care about themselves and about their children, I would rather not take into my house a product with a not appropriate picture on it,
Taster Choice coffee is a popular product in every Jewish house so why not try to get them to remove that picture?
I didn't see this one (my filter blocked the Facebook link) so I'm not  sure what this picture looks like but if it's not appropriate then I'm all for the ad.

youre kidding, right? I hope..

But if it's just your interpretation of whether or not one is intolerant then yes, you must tolerate him, because if you don't your tolerance has no meaning. So of course one shouldn't tolerate Hitler, Stalin, or other clearly hateful people-but others, you are not do black and white should be tolerated (according to the shitah of those folk that preach tolerance).
Sone things are black and white but most are not.

Extremists are basically intolerant of women. They view women in a way that Halacha never asked them to. Removing women's faces from magazines, refusing to sit next to a woman on an airplane, and imposing new modesty restrictions almost every other day; no more talking in the streets, no more walking on the same side of the road, no longer allowed to have a smartphone, not allowed to wear this or that kind of sheitel, this or that brand of clothing etc.

But worst of all, imposing on OTHERS to act the same. Spraypainting billboards, covering up cereal boxes, calling Nestle and harass them to remove a picture of a woman. This is intolerance.

[ChaimMoskowitz]

This is intolerance.

That is not what I would call it.

[zale]

That is not what I would call it.

What would you call it?

By the law of double negatives, being intolerant of intolerance is not a contradiction to promoting tolerance.

Here's a question (and this is just out of an observational point of view, I'm not proclaiming in any way to be in that מדרגה, although I wish I was) but here goes --
How many people here criticizing the guy posting that paper, do not interact with their sister in laws -- which according to all פוסקים is not allowed since there's a קירבות?
I assume not even one.
Point being -- if you're the guy passing red lights at intersections all the time, you're not really the guy to be criticizing a safe driver.

My pdf reader on my phone is wonky. Cliffs?

[ChaimMoskowitz]

What would you call it?

Deeply disrespectful attitude toward women.

[aygart]

My pdf reader on my phone is wonky. Cliffs?

It basically says that some levels of interaction are not a problem.

[hvaces42]

Deeply disrespectful attitude toward women.

That last word is very offensive. It should say non-man. 

They have ventured so far off the reservation, it's pathetic. If they could marry without the bride being present they would.

I close my eyes when I drive because I might see my sister-in-law.

Feh! How do you even know she's your sister-in-law?

Incorrect. The best part of waking up is the sleep that follows.

I Mentioned this tasters choice lomdos to an old Yid, He told me that before the WW2 in poland there was a טאג-בלאט in yiddish but the content was Trief, the Imrie Emes announced that no one should buy it, the next day the טאג-בלאט Thanked the Imrie Emes in the editorial For increasing their Sales.
