Michaltastik's back!

Hello everyone! Given the political climate out there, I have decided that I need to go back to blogging. For starters, I will be speaking about the recent issue regarding CUNY's extension to Linda Sarsour to keynote a commencement. Last Thursday there was a rally around the subject, which I attended. I have been reviewing information online about it and I think that I have something unique to say about the rally. I have not finished that post, yet, though. I have, however, completed an introductory post, explaining the circumstances leading up to the rally.

Americans And Communism Are Like Oil And Water-They Don’t Mix

For those who don’t know me personally, I grew up in the 80s and 90s, at the end of the cold war. Communism is no joke. Lately, I’ve been taking some time to better understand the communist movement here in the U.S. which I will be blogging about more. In the meanwhile, a guy named Otto Warmbier has died bringing communism into the spotlight. A little background for those who don’t know, Otto was an American college guy from an upper middle class family in suburban Cincinnati, Ohio.

In a press conference from March of 2016, he blamed a well-connected friend’s mother from home in Ohio and a University of VA friend from a secret society. However, many think the North Korean...

Unhappy Tisha B'Av..

Some of my readers may not be Jewish or particularly religious, but today marks the day on the Jewish calendar when the Jewish Temple was destroyed... TWICE. It's been a dark day for Jews everywhere. One of my Facebook acquaintances actually lost his father last night. It's considered a very unlucky day for us. Some may not realize the wall that people pray at in Jerusalem was the western wall of the last Temple. Some may not realize that Jews pray in the direction of the wall.
