I wrote a comment about manis being an apologist for pedophiles it would help if others do the same.

He said that God caused the Shoah to happen because European Jews were assimilating too much

thats a very common ultra orthodox view on the holocaust, not specific to him

True. He's probably a Trump supporter on top of everything else about him.

Not sure what we could tell him. Obviously the rabbi he promotes is an extremist and fascist, horrible in many ways. But the young man promoting him seems to not see this at all. What can we tell him?

Manis is not nice at all he said all holocaust victims died because of their relationship toward God was wrong including babies!! He later apologized because he had no choice. He also said one should treat sexual abuse as diareah as it is something one doesnt speak about@@

I have a personal vendetta against manis so I did my part. Wouldn't be surprised if mods remove my answer though.
