For real though, probably some esoteric rule like this.

I always thought the whole, "show your nakedness to the moutain," to be some DL way of saying "everyone can smell your junk when you spread your legs so take smaller steps."

Hasidism is bad because it had stressed a very real issue in the Jewish religion/diaspora/community in that Rabbis were autocratic and their legalism destroyed any sense of a personal and vital religion, but they also did not (they cannot) dispute the institution of the Rabbi in and of itself. It's also not based theologically in any sense because it's just repackaged neoplatonism, the hasidic dynasties bicker, and they're all welfare leeches. Aesthetically speaking too, all the men are ugly and having the twirly side burns is ugly. Kiryas Joel should have a palaestra, ditch the 19th century clothing, do combat sports, and keep being welfare leeches.

When i was a kid I remember watching like CSPAN for an hour or some bc someone had lost the remote and being still during the analog era you couldn't just change the channel without a remote for the cable box. think post clicker remote but after the cable/sat boxes had physical buttons as well. i finally found the remote and nothing they said made much sense to me but I went and started going through the other "news" channels just idling on them for a bit before clicking past and i stopped when i saw a very very hassidic looking guy, I didnt know thats what he was as a kid but i was like haha funny man funny hat.

The Tl;Dr was he was the first person I ever heard mention "latent racism" as a concept in regards to ppl that werent overtly racist but he jsut knew they were bc everyone hates him and his religion. But also they are great people so the hatred is unfounded and must be rooted in LITERALLY ALL OF SOCIETY BEING PASSIVELY AGAINST HIS ENTIRE CULTURE DUE TO NOT SINGING THEIR PRAISE 24/7.

He didnt outright say the phrase silence is violence but he did say something like "and those that dont heed my warnings are just as bad as these [sic] enemies lying in wait" I cant remember exactly how he put it but like dude sold it like there was a fucking japanese gundam macross anime robot war in space between mecha hitler and his klan but were all experiencing an ostrich effect through complacency and mass hypnosis which inherently makes us evil?

Like what the actual fuck is wrong with these ppl?

the rebbe probably said that if a man looks good, he might tempt other men into commiting a grave sin

same reason why they only wash their furcoats once a year

even in the middle of the desert

they have to take a shower in the mikveh regularly, the stench is from their furcoats

No it's because the priests didn't wear undergarments under their robes so they had to walk with short steps to avoid desecrating the temple

Wait? Seriously? Do they keep the same Eastern-European dress code in hot climates?

Thank G_d for aircon.
Anyway, leaning into group signifiers to prevent assimilation does make sense in the country where their religion doesn't make them distinct.
