Or, if you haven't yet joined yourself, please do so
It will help me stay secure and to continue to share my life with humanity.
A few days ago I posted the following which you can click on and read here:
Finger food is becoming a thing of the past...
I’m a simple fella. There's no greater joy for me than buying a bag of freshly baked cookies for 50¢ and eating it as I stroll down the block back to my residence with the pyramids as a backdrop. It hath however come to pass that I’m now the most popular person in the region among the garbage-dwelling beggar kids. So even though I’ve successfully convince…
A paying Subscriber to Yedidya named Mendel from Israel commented the following there:
And you should know that he's legit.
He even let his kids speak with the beggar children here in Cairo through Video Call and everyone enjoyed it. It was a true humanizing experience for everybody and the beggar kids haven't stopped talking about it.
Unfortunately, as true as it is that most people prefer to humanize their putative enemies (though of course most people require lots more cajoling to get there than Mendel and his family, who required no cajoling and came on their own steam), it's also true that not everyone is amenable.
But worse is that SOCIETY is set up in such a way as to cater to the dehumanizing forces rather than to the 99.5% of people who would prefer not to hurt others so long as those others aren't hurting them.
And, well, I am the canary in the coal mine.
Because I still have so few Subscribers I made this new post to share my response to Mendel's appreciative note, and to ask you to please share Yedidya with anybody you know who would be inclined to join us as a paying Subscriber.
It's literally these Subscribers who are financing me and helping me to do the things I do, including plenty of charity for those who have less than even I do.
But more importantly, I need as many caring subscribers as possible simply to remain safe. Our subscribers comprise a New Society, different and better than the one that turns a blind eye to anything not likely to affect their own skin. A society that is repairing the world rather than the onlookers who rubberneck and shrug as they beseech their talismen and politicians for rectification that they are too cowardly and foolish to contribute to themselves.
Thank you very much Mendel, I'm glad you enjoy it!
Erev Shabbos I was really overcome by the reality of what the pyramids are: Physical structures that living people (possibly upkept by working Hebrews, after all there is a marker for Ramses there) that the Bnei Yisroel themselves saw, and which serve as a physical reminder to me and you not to enslave ourselves ever again.
I'm starting to face some of the same issues I've faced in many situations in my life. Most people who come at me with negative intentions are won over by innocuous friendliness and humanity but the few people who are just badly made can cause me serious problems while everyone else stays silent out of cowardice for their own selves.
In this case it's the Yahoodi thing, in other environments it's whatever their particular culture happens to be most paranoid about.
That's why I decided to go public sround two years ago and to gain a large audience -- for my own protection.
It's also why I decided to re-enter the ideological world of attempting to fix society -- despite seeing no real way to do so -- because I found that what it comes down to isn't human goodness, which is always present, but societal goodness.
Humans are easy to win over. Newrly everybody prefers to enjoy the company of people over exploiting or hurting people, but what matters is society. The very same people who would put us and our families in crematoria will defend us with their lives in a culture with different values and a different structure.
Astonishingly, and thanks to miracles more than I can list, I'm still alive at nearly 48 years old, but it really oughtn't be a miracle and someone who lives as I do (I just bought breakfast for a beggar kid for example) really ought not be broke and family-less. It's a real divine claim against the world today that I am in this state and it's no credit to them that I'm still alive either. That credit goes to select individuals - like yourself - and to The Great Mystery. Society however has failed me every time they have been called upon to protect me from some sociopath or other incorrigibly dangerous individual.
So now, as the Yahoodi (Jew) thing spreads, and more and more people are asking of I'm an Israeli agent it's getting uncomfortable for me through absolutely no fault of my own honest and transparent self, and is an accusation against mankind.
I'm no Jesus, Gandhi or Zechariah Ben Yehoyada (Gittin 57b) and still hope to avoid their fate, but the accusation against humankind in general and against the SINGLE NATION DESIGNATED BY GOD to teach and to rule, is The Same — and in Our Own Time.
