(3,051 posts)Although my son has to drive me to shul on Friday afternoons. We have a small apartment near. I am old, so I live with my son now, and he is a doctor in a very rural area. Big change for me.
I am very much the only Democrat there. Even my son is Republican. The antics of Rashida Tlaib calling for the genocide of Jewish people in Israel was a bridge too far. I fear he will never reconsider our party.
As an aside, there is an Israeli TV show I am enjoying on Netflix called "Shtisel" you would enjoy. It follows (I think) Satmar family in Israel. (You really can't tell the specific Hasidic group -- not Lubavitch, as they are very much not Zionists)
It is very respectful and (interestingly) the number one show among Hasidic families, despite not many having TVs.
It's split between Hebrew and Yiddish (which I enjoy listening to, since I haven't spoken it since my wife died).
There are English subtitles for both.
