GMAFB. I didn’t get jabbed because nothing was open anyway, gyms, synagogues, restaurants (except for takeout). When at last they opened the mikvah (ritual bath house), I got my green card and was happy for it, because a mikvah is part of my work requirements. You cannot hand write a Divine name without it, and since I write Torah scrolls for a living, I went and got jabbed twice and then boosted twice. I was one of the last to do it, and I normally stay home anyway and was recovering from radical bone surgery, and in my little town of Neveh Daniel, I could walk in the park and nobody would say “boo,” as could all other residents. A physical therapist came to visit me, and get me back on my feet again, but she’d have to wear a mask. As a patient, I did not. We’d all have to wear masks in the grocery store. BFD. I detested the things. But that’s not a “yellow star of shame,” just a concession to a stupid regimen of stupidity.
I don’t pretend to know what you went through in Alberta. Don’t presume to know what the situation was in Israel. The news isn’t just maliciously fake. Even with the best intention in the world, it’s also ignorant, as, I regret to tell you, are you.
I don't think we even belong on the same website. I live in a country (the U.S., not Canada) that overthrew the government over far less sh!t than that.
