Naive Ex Satmar Frieda Vizel cannot Understand why the Polish people hate her guts!

 



Frieda Vizel is a former Satmar Chasid who left the community, yet she remains deeply connected to it. She has even built a business guiding non‑Jews and non‑affiliated Jews through Williamsburg so they can see firsthand how Chasidim live. There’s nothing wrong with that in itself. But when she receives antisemitic comments on a nonbinary video—(see below)—she seems genuinely shocked, unable to understand why it happened.

This confusion stems from her Satmar upbringing, which instills the belief that they are the “authentic” Jews, while Zionists are somehow outside the Jewish people. When Satmar Hasidim speak to non‑Jews, they often try to convey this distinction. But the reality is that non‑Jews do not see these internal divisions. To them, Jews are Jews. Antisemites throughout history—including the Nazis—never differentiated between Satmar Hasidim and Zionists. Hitler didn't bother to kosher the ovens between burning Satmar Chassidim and burning Zionists!

Even though Frieda left the community, she still carries many of its assumptions. As the saying goes: you can bring a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.


Back on October 15, 2024, I wrote about another video of hers in which she tried to explain to non‑Jews the difference between Zionist and anti‑Zionist Jews. She could not understand why some viewers expressed hatred toward her and her Satmar family despite their anti‑Zionist stance.

I wrote then:

I truly believe Frieda is a kind and gentle person with good intentions. But that is precisely what makes her influence so concerning. She has thousands of non‑Jewish followers who respect her deeply, and she now wants to use that platform to teach them about internal Jewish divisions.

In her videos, she tends to group all “victims” together. She avoids acknowledging Jewish victims specifically, instead equating Israeli women who were raped and murdered with Arab civilians in Gaza—many of whom supported a terrorist regime that launched tens of thousands of rockets at Israel long after Israel withdrew from Gaza. She insists on feeling equally for all “victims,” which ignores the moral and historical context.

She now wants to explain to her followers that not all Jews support Israel, and that some religious Jews believe Zionism caused the Holocaust and that the State of Israel should not exist. She hopes that by doing so, non‑Jews will understand that her community “has nothing to do with Israel.” She genuinely believes this distinction will matter to them.

But she fails to grasp a simple truth: antisemites do not care about these nuances.


In her recent video about her trip to Poland, she once again expresses genuine bewilderment at the antisemitic comments she received. She even says she would like to “have a dialogue” with the commenters. She wants to open a conversation with people whose hostility toward Jews is so deeply rooted that they themselves could never articulate its origins. Frieda seems to childishly believe that if she just engages them kindly enough, she can change their minds. For hundreds of years, the Pols murdered and pillaged their Jewish neighbors and were Hitler's willing executioners, but she wants to understand them and perhaps change their minds. Nazis knew where to place their largest extermination center, yes, in Poland in the city of Oswiecim, Auschwitz!

It’s a level of naïveté that reflects her upbringing: the belief that dialogue alone can dissolve centuries‑old hatred. She truly thinks that by talking, she can persuade committed antisemites whose parents assisted the Nazis, to rethink their views. It’s a mindset that only someone shaped by her Satmar background could sincerely hold.

This kind of naïveté is dangerous.

We have seen similar tragedies in Israel. Some of the most left‑leaning Israelis—people who truly believed in coexistence and built friendships with Gazans—were brutally murdered by those very same people on October 7. Their goodwill and their "dialogs" did not protect them, on the contrary it was their death trap, as they had a false sense of security thinking that the Gazans would never commit these atrocities!

Frieda has not internalized this lesson. She does not understand—and perhaps never will—that her son, who may not look visibly Jewish, is still viewed by antisemites the same way as a Jew wearing a kippah and tzitzit. To them, a secular Israeli at a music festival and a Chariedi Jew in Williamsburg are the same.

Another important point that you will only see on DIN

When Satmar or Neturei Karta tell Goyim that they believe that the Torah doesn't allow a State until Moshiach comes, they don't tell them what they truly believe will happen AFTER Moshiach comes!

Both Satmar and Neturei Karta believe that when Moshiach comes all the Arabs will be driven out of Eretz Yisrael to make room for the Jews!!

Deep down they have absolutely no respect for Goyim and lie to them about Zionists! If they had any respect for them they would tell them their true beliefs, the fact that they themselves are Zionists as well!

Satmar won't tell Goyim that they yearn for a time when ALL Jews will return to Eretz Yisrael! That they have Eretz Yisrael in ALL their prayers! And that they shout at their Seder Table "Next Year in Yerushlayim"

They don't tell them that there is basically only one difference between them and Zionists....... and that it is ........"timing!"

Zionists believe that we have to do hishtadlis and live there in the here and now, and Satmar prays and yearns to live in Eretz Yisrael ASAP as soon as Moshiach comes, which can even happen today!

I wonder ....Why don't they share that with them?

So here's the thing about after Moshiach comes. Yes, the non-Jews in Israel will leave except for a small number to do the work of running the country because everyone will now be learning and someone has to keep the lights on and the cows fed. The churches and mosques will be torn down. Sounds very terrible.
Except when Moshiach comes, it will be with God standing behind him in a very obvious fashion so no one will protest because Divine will now becomes obvious.

However, here's the big problem with Satmar.
In a family there's a rule - other than in terrible cases, you always stick up for family even if you disagree with them. Yes, my cousin might be a jerk. Yes, behind closed doors I may tell him off or just avoid talking to him altogether but don't you dare insult him! I'll put you in your place if you do. He's family.
Satmar does not see itself as part of the Jewish family, or more specifically, it doesn't see the rest of the Jewish people as part of the Jewish family. So it really does think that "Psssh, we're not like those terrible Zionist Jews so you can like it" makes a difference. It's the same as all the liberal Jews who try to stay in their Jew-hating circles by leading with "I hate Bibi so I'm not like one of those crazy Zionists or religious whackjobs." For the haters, a Jew is a Jew is a Jew.

Wow! We just witnessed anti-Kapo Misnagid DIN announce to the velt including the gentiles reading this page, a KAPO outburst, outing some evil designs against them by a group of Jews! Welcome to the KAPO Klub!

Wow!
This 4:58 shvantz takes what I wrote and turns it around to something so bizarre and crazy that one wonders if he understands what a Kapo really is!

I really hope Goyim do read this because they have to know that Satmar and the Extreme branch of Satmar called Neturei Karta are basically lying to them!
They are in their hearts all a bunch of Zionists!!
Yup your heard that right! They are all Zionists...
As I wrote and let me quote my wise words:
"The only difference is the timing"
They all believe that come Moshiach they are going to chase the goyim the hell out of Israel, and those that stay can basically do all the work for the Jews! They are going to throw out those Goyim that they march with against Israel!
I wonder what a Pro-Hamas on a protest against Israel would do had he had an inkling of what that Neturei Karta guy really believes!!
Goyim have to know that all Jews are Jews, no matter their ideology!

The saying should be "You can take the man out of Satmar, but you can't take Satmar out of the man."

Read the post before you open your mouth!

People with limited knowledge should hold back from spouting forth on anything and everything. According to the prophets, rabbis, mankind at large will be redeemed and uplifted in the messianic era. G-d will be king over all the world, his name will be one, nations will come to Jerusalem, etc.

However, keep in mind, that, as the great Rambam (Maimonides) wrote, we don't know how these things will work out, practically speaking, until the time comes.

I believe the appropriate saying here is:, "You can take the girl out of Bklyn, but cant take the Bklyn out of the girl."

Even though Frieda left the community, she still carries many of its assumptions. As the saying goes: you can bring a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
