When the Yeshiva Centre first announced locking down, they cited that they had done so on medical advice. One of those was a former cosmetic doctor, called the Tik Tok doctor, Dr Daniel Aronov, who was a big charlatan, making millions of dollars by posting immodest videos on tik tok of all the ladies whose body parts he touched on video. He has since lost his license due to being a charlatan. (see here https://www.insider.com/
These local GP's, as most GP's, know nothing about infectious diseases and this vaccine. They simply follow the bidding of the Big Pharma companies and give out shots. The medical advice I and others sought was to research the biggest minds, including Nobel Prize winners, in fields such as epidemiology, virology, infectious diseases, and vaccines etc in the world. All this information and scientific proof was widely available online. If I could research it, why couldn't our Rabbis have done so too? It did not take a rocket scientist to work out that the government was spreading propaganda and lies through fear and hysteria. Instead the Rabbis themselves became fearfully hysterical and spread that hysteria to the community as well.
All the time of covid not a single word of positivity or encouragement came from them. All we ever got was fear, fear, and fear and, parroting of government propaganda and lies. In fact, they were such shills of the government that there is a photo of a large group of Rabbis , mostly Chabad, eating donuts on Chanukah with Dan Andrews. They behaved like such submissive puppets of the tyrannical corrupt government.
The shules and schools should never have been closed. Imagine what the Rebbe would say? He did not even approve of closing the yeshivas on snow days in NY. But for these Rabbis, it was not even enough to follow government restrictions, as they went even beyond, and kept institutions closed even when the government did not require it, and called for even stricter restrictions than the government imposed.
The other non-Lubavitch Jews, Adass and Satmar in Melbourne, did resist. They were willing to risk getting fined. They weren't afraid of fines, and in the end hardly anyone paid any of the covid fines, in fact they could only collect about 5% of them Australia wide. The non-Lubavitch Rabbis found loopholes in the government restrictions to use to help their communities to go on with their lives behind the back of the government, and our Rabbis condemned them for it. Several of our Rabbis even went to the media and condemned their fellow Jews for breaking government rules, and in my mind that is akin to being an informer to the Stalinists in 1930's Russia. In fact, our Rabbis were also instructing people to commit mesira on other Jews who broke the rules
The Rabbis and officials were completely panicked the entire time. All they ever did was spread panic and hysteria. We heard very little if anything in terms of hope, encouragement, positivity, or empowerment. We were meant to see the 'new normal' as some sort of holy avoda.
In light of all these events, which some would like to pretend never happened, how can we now trust that these so-called communal officials have our best interest at heart? How have they shown to be in the corner of their fellow Jews? Or are they only interested in keeping their jobs and keeping the government funding gravy train going? What do you think?
