The Taliban? Are you serious? Do you have any idea how bad the Taliban are? What's the worst thing the Orthodox Jews ever did, not vaccinate their kids?

Are you kidding me what's the worst thing they did let's start with treating women like they are breeding machines who don't deserve an education or a career or a life other than birthing babies. You really need to stop this nonsense. It's embarrassing.

Judaism is exceptionally pro-women. The overwhelming majority of Orthodox Jewish women want to have a lot of kids, they want to be mothers, they don't want to have a career. They think it's their mission from God to have lots of children. What's the problem? Go to any orthodox Jewish woman in Brooklyn and ask her if she's happy and I guarantee you the answer will be a resounding "Yes".

I'm not embarrassed. Just pointing out that most people here have no idea what they're talking about.

They are both religious fundamentalist. The biggest difference is, as Jews we don’t believe in proselytizing, but both groups have a dogmatic adherence to Bronze Age books of “revelation.

That is a superficial comparison. Read these articles and then tell me Orthodox Jews have anything in common with the Taliban:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taliban#Condemned_practices
Not proselytizing is the biggest difference between these two groups?

Bro, it's OK to admit when you don't know something. You don't have to pretend you're right.

This is not even the HALF of it because there isn't good reporting in Afghanistan. Go do your own research if you want to know more. The Taliban kill, torture, rape, and mutilate men, women, children, and the elderly. If this is just "an ultra conservative sect" then I'd hate to see what your definition of "moderate" is. I'm not even going to validate your comparison with a counterargument.

So when I point out how extremely wrong you are, instead of taking a moment to reflect and think, "Man, am I just talking out of my ass?", you double down? Have you considered that you don't know what you're talking about?

I would explain the difference if I thought there was any hope of you understanding it. What you are saying is so divorced from reality that I am now extremely suspicious of your motivation to draw a line between Orthodox Jews and the fucking Taliban.
