Funny thing is the Orthodox act the most like the caricatures. "Take a couple minutes out of your day and vote for Donald Trump. He'll improve your life maybe" is the kind of thing I'd say if someone wanted me to parody a Jewish campaign slogan, yet here this Jewish guy is on film unironically blasting it out of a loudspeaker from his car.
It’s not very inspiring, but—and maybe my racism level just isn’t high enough—I’m not sure what makes it quintessentially “Jewish.” The vaguely apathetic fatalism?
I didn't say it was "inspiring". I look at it with some amusement as a window into a foreign culture.
To be honest, I think of that as “stereotypically millennial,” or even “stereotypically modern.” It may have started with Jews, but it’s society-wide, now.
