It's honestly laughable to read about a left-wing demonstrator in Petah Tikva who mocked a Haredi passerby for his lifestyle, at the same time he was protesting the prime minister:

A left-wing demonstrator who mocked a haredi Jewish man Saturday night says he won’t apologize for his remarks, adding that he “has a serious problem with haredim”, whom he accused of “draining the country”.

The incident in question occurred during an anti-Netanyahu protest in Petah Tikva Saturday night, as demonstrators demanded Attorney General Mandelblit indict the Prime Minister and push for his removal from office.

During the protest, an elderly haredi man asked several demonstrators why they had begun their event on the Sabbath, desecrating the Jewish holy day and discouraging religious Jews from taking part.

In response, hecklers mocked the haredi man, with a number of especially incendiary comments from one demonstrator who demanded the haredi man remove his kippa [yarmulke] and “Shave your beard”. As the insults continued, even several of his fellow demonstrators admonished the man for his anti-religious tirade.

Considering that, in the past, left-wing politicians were quite fine with Haredi socialism, it's laughable based on that fact that any leftists would be attacking the Haredis for such matters now. Should a left-wing government ever be elected again, there's every chance they'll form a coalition with Shas and United Torah Judaism if they see it to their advantage. And chances are the hecklers won't have an issue with it.

So what's the point of their tommyrot now? I just don't see their point. It's good that today, more Haredis are trying to move beyond socialism and contribute more to society by working and serving in the army. Not that the left seems to care, unfortunately.
