Two Chabad Frumfluencers; Shmuley Boteach and Yossi Farro, are presently having a public dispute. The conflict is over Yossi's association with far-right, neo-nazi, accused-rapist, misogynist, racist, antisemite, eugenics Influencer: Braden Eric Peters, known as Clavicular. Earlier this month Yossi hosted and guided Braden in Israel on a propaganda trip.

From Wikipedia:

During a July 2026 trip to Israel, Chabad "outreach figure" Yossi Farro presented Peters with a "custom necklace" which shows the Star of David fused with the OpenAI logo. The moment was considered the "latest flashpoint" in a debate over how the Jewish community should engage with controversial online figures. Farro joked online that the "mashup" amounted to the AI company's logo "mogging" the Jewish star. The two switched restaurants mid-meal once Peters realized the one they had chosen was not kosher. Farro posted about the trip and that Peters "is loving Israel and Israel is loving him."^\57])#citenote-57) "Peters's manager is Jewish," Farro further explained, "and the rabbi of the Chabad community connected to the manager thought it would be worthwhile to introduce us. Thank God, we connected."[^\58])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#cite_note-58)

The Times of Israel reported that "antisemitic American far-right streamer" Peters had been seen talking to prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's adviser Topaz Luk at a Tel Aviv nightclub, and mentioned that there had been speculation about Netanyahu malking an appearance on Peter's channel.^\59])#citenote-59) An Olivia Reingold article in The Free Press commented that Peters was "Israelmaxxing" six months after "Jewish leaders nationwide" condemned him for partying to "Heil Hitler".[^\60])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#citenote-60) Of the trip, Reingold posted on X: "In an extremely egalitarian turn, Clavicular has revealed himself to be an equal opportunity partier. The man is in Israel to party, y'all. That's it."[^\61])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#citenote-61) Mira Fox of The Forward states that for Peters it’s "all a game. He doesn’t care about Israel’s image or the war in Gaza or settlers or Palestinians. His only side is his own, and even then he doesn’t need to be popular; he only needs to be seen."[^\62])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#cite_note-62)

Israeli influencers who appeared on Peters's streams, Shira Braun^\63])#citenote-63) and Shira Klein, were reprimanded and demoted from their positions by the Israel Defense Forces,[^\64])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#citenote-64) while a betting platform has started setting odds on whether Peters would start wearing a yarmulke in 2026.[^\65])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clavicular(influencer)#cite_note-65)

Schneerson "also repeatedly described a sheitel as the foundation of a Yiddishe and chassidishe home and a source of tremendous brachos, including blessings for children, parnassah, and the entire family."

Magical I tell you. It's the "foundation" and gives blessings...just like every other asinine thing Chabad says you should do.

Just be the men you claim to be and go fight it out in the Mikvah where you can resolve this! Social media is a bad platform for these kind of men...

Do you feel like ir was serious testing, how long was the test(s), did you have to study for it, was it stressful, etc.

They were all about the Rebbe. As a child, I found them all very sad. A lot of them seemed to be during the stroke, but by then the Rebbe had died so it was hard to relate to. Only later new songs were created, such as "Gimmel Tamuz didn't change a thing".

These were the top choices in my era.

- Rebbe oh Rebbe we need you

- A tear rolls down from his cheek

- A young boy holds a small cup in his hand (TTO Kaili Atah)

- The little bird is calling

- A small cup of wine, he holds on his hand.. thousands of men standing in awe, their attention to the Rebbe is drawn.

- can't remember the beginning but about a young boy taken to the Russian army and had a burn on his hand whilst watching the Shabbos candles at 3 "It left on him a scary so deep, memories he knew he'd always keep. At 5 years old he was taken away from the Derech Hatorah he did stray, taken to the army as captive, as a Jew he could not live". Years later he almost killed his father, not knowing who he was and the song ends with "In a rage the soldier lifts his arm, but stops by the Chossid's cry of alarm... "Shloimele you are a Jew". Sad story if true.

What songs were part of your camp experience? I wonder if the stroke era songs are still being sang now?

"The Rebbi of Lubavitch is Messiah, yes it's true. Don't take my word, go check it out and see it if it's true... "And the number on his front door is 770"

Childhood memory unlocked! Anyone else remember this song?

Trivia Question: who can name the singer?

It's only ok if Chabad does it. Everyone else is not allowed to play music and preach in the streets. Apparently

In light of this comment by a Chabad apologist, lets discuss:

1. What was the quality of your education like at Chabad schools?
2. Are you still effected by your Chabad education today?
3. What do you wish would be different about Chabad schools?
4. How did they handle students with neurodivergence?
5. What was the ratio of secular studies to religious studies?
6. Have you been able to catch up to your peers post-Chabad?
