I would love a private forum
I also don't think the poll is accurate. How can you tell if people from New York want their own forum if anyone can answer the poll? Maybe the people who picked no don't live in New York?

I live in NY and I voted no. Because I'm not hiding anything and what do I really mind if an oot'er has an opinion.

Should there be a separate NY forum?
I dunno. The way people keep talking here, it sounds like it will be a very quiet forum in a few months.
In truth, I appreciate reading the news from New York. It gives me updates and insights into the lives of my friends and family whom remain over there, and it allows me to celebrate, or worry, with all you sisters over the sea.

I think that would irritated me
I live in Lakewood. Technically, I'm not eligible to join a NY forum, but there's so much overlap- shopping, politics, etc.

I think there should be a private forum for Brooklyn altogether, not just for COVID, since so many imamothers seem to think that there are no Jews living anywhere else. Would a mother in Chicago post “ where can I get a good dentist who takes United Healthcare” and leave it at that without saying “West Rogers Park or Skokie preferred”?

Yes. There are basically private threads for New Yorkers now, it's just that they're stealth private threads, where you think it's about something relevant to everyone and then people are like "we're talking about Brooklyn, go away."
So let's just make it official. It's a lot less offensive to have a thread exist in a private forum, than to put it in a public forum and just be rude to anybody whose opinion you didn't want to hear.
(not saying all posters from NYC do that, of course. but it sometimes happens, so for those few posters who really want an all-NYC thread, let's make it happen. officially. nicely.)

So basically there is a huge percentage of mothers from NY. Automatically a large percentage of rude posters live there.
Does that make all NYers rude? Asking for a friend

Would love a forum where posters hiding under amother can't post their nasty anti Bklyn comments!

I voted No because it's important for imamothers in other locations to know what happens here in NY.
What is happening now with anti-Semitism from the governor reflects to other communities elsewhere and everyone should be aware and keep their eyes open.

As someone who doesn't live in New York, I find it interesting to hear what New Yorkers have to say about their situation. I have to say that I disagree with most of it, but it's important to know what people are thinking and why.

Recently someone asked
Quote: | USA doesn’t feel like a Medina shel chesed anymore if you live in NY. What would be the next destination if need be? |
I innocently asked
salt wrote: | Why do you think that? What's changed? |
And the OP responsed
Quote: | Um... you obviously don’t live in NY if you’re asking. |
Was I not meant to ask if I don't live in NY? I was sincerely taking an interest.
I'm not sure what my point is here, I just thought it was a funny response. I was quite taken aback actually. I don't really follow American news, and I thought I'd get an answer.
