It covers sex, strict sexual segregation, the laws of Judaism (Talmud), Kosher food, weddings, and those who have embraced, rejected, and left Judaism.

The greatest thing about many Hasidic Jews is that they do NOT usually support the genocidal colonial settler regimes running the "State of Israel" (i.e., illegally occupied Palestine) or its current authoritarian regime and phony democracy under CIA Operative/Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In fact, they have done and said much to embarrassment numerous administrations, showing how their actions run counter to Jewish law, both biblical and commentarial. But the nominal and Reformed Jews pay little attention to what their Torah scholars have to say, choosing instead the way of money and militarism as a branch of the U.S. military-industrial complex.
