My response to @DaveRubin pertaining to his question of why the machine always seems to be one-step ahead of us:
Dave I am of the opinion that the reason the "Machine" is always one-step ahead of the sane is because they have no life apart from screwing with the world. We in sane world have lives in which we surround ourselves with family, friends, companions, things to do, places to go and people to see; have fun with and great discussions. The machine has none of this. As a result we find ourselves always reacting to what the machine does and says next. To gain the lead we must stop being reactionary and more revolutionary in our behavior and speech. If the Founders of this great nation had only continued to react to the Monarchy's devices then there would have been no Tea Party, no Declaration of Independence and no U.S. Constitution (the greatest non-religious document ever penned). Those were Revolutionary.
Parshat Naso is the longest single parsha in the Torah, clocking in at 176 verses. That’s Torah’s way of saying, “Hey, you might want to take a long , serious and contemplative look at what you’re about to learn.”

I wanted to thank all those who have donated to this site, our YouTube & Rumble Channels for your generous support for Shmu's Views on Locals all this time. Your help has been so appreciated. As you may have noticed I no longer post videos and lessons as much as I used to. I have curtailed much of our channels on Locals, YouTube and Rumble for age-related reasons.
As a result, I cannot in good conscience continue to ask for your monthly financial contributions to the site.
Thank you so very much for all you have provided to ensure quality teachings on Judaism and politics.
I would ask that you find another worthy charity or a rabbi who teaches Torah and truth. I know they too would appreciate your support.
Again thank you for your generosity.
Sincerely,
Shmuel ben Shlomi
