Reply to comment by AnacharsisIV in Ban Corporal Punishment in Private Schools, New York Lawmakers Say by _Maxolotl

I don’t much care to philosophically debate the benefits of objective journalism when people’s lives are at stake. You’re also showing a profound bias by stating that Hasidic Judaism is a cult.

I said "religious movement and/or cult." Considering it's properly referred to as the "Hassidic Movement" I assumed that'd be relatively uncontroversial. It's literally a spiritual revival movement, from which both cults and non-cults have originated.

It is a reporters Job to report on things like this.

Other religions like islam and christianity are ridiculed almost constantly in pop culture. Do not act like criticism of child abuse is “anti-semitism”
