Heshi Fried is primarily known, if known at all, as the owner of the world’s mostoffensive car. The ‘offensiveness’ pertains to Fried’s home-made bumper stickers, and the whole contraption is really more laughably wrong and a demonstration that Heshi Fried is an incorrigible idiot than offensive. Among the stickers reported by witnesses are:
- “A good woman is a subservient frum housewife”
- “G-d sent AIDS to punish male gays”
- “Modern Girls: Forget Minchal Dress Modestly”
- “Hurricane Sandy is G-d’s response to gay marriage”
- “Atheism is a mental disorder. Evolution is science FICTION” [Heshi Fried might know something about mental disorders; he knows nothing about science]
- “Mothers with short skirts shorten child’s life 4 inches below knee is Torah law”
- “Shul talkers cause CANCER TNT Torah Novel Talk”
- “Boston MASSacre G-d’s reponse to America’s 1st gay marriage state”
- “The universe is 5773 years old Evolution is science FICTION”
And so on.
Fried himself is a Hardei, i.e. subscribes to the most conservative form of Orthodox Judaism. Even so, Fried thinks that “most people are very much with me, the people who are religious are basically all giving me a thumbs up. Except secular Jews, who usually like, express shock. They feel like I’m causing anti-Semitism or something.” Of course, that ‘most people’ agree with him tells you nothing about the quality of his positions but rather a bit about what kind of people Fried hangs out with. He also used to be a member of the fringe Hasidic group Jewish Political Action Committee, which apparently went under as a consequence of a big “Jews against the internet” protest at Citi Field a decade or so ago after which even deranged Hasidic extremists felt the need to distance themselves from the unhinged and murderous fanatics that made up that group. Fried also claims that the bumper stickers are part of his goal to make as many people as possible more observant, in which case they don’t seem to have the effect he was going for. His grasp of how other people work is as tenuous as his grasp of anything else.
Diagnosis: Possibly the most hateful, bigoted, monstrous and evil person in the world. Fortunately he has little means (or guts) to put his deranged hate into any kind of action – probably harmless, in other words.
I've seen a car in my homestate of Connecticut, the rear of which is plastered with bumper stickers like:
ReplyDelete- THE CURE FOR LIBERALISM IS GENOCIDE.
- BAN NARCAN.
- CHANGING GENDERS IS IMPOSSIBLE.
- F*** ANTIFA.
- BUILD THE WALL WITH THE BODIES OF ILLEGALS.
- COVID-19 IS A F***ING COLD.
- WHITE PRIVILEGE IS A MYTH.
- SIEG HEIL MOTHERF***ER.
- WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, VOTE FROM THE ROOFTOPS.
Thankfully, I've never met the owner.
