[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll answer here to the best of my ability. Pp who actually grew up with no movies or secular books and is annoyed and slightly amused by Julia (we knew her as Talia Leibov)[/quote]

I am curious how someone who claims to know this woman happened to be on DCUM and land in this thread. [/quote]

LOL- same! Ultraconservatives are not supposed to be on computers. I call BS[/quote]

The orthodox community,  particularly  the one referenced in the show, does use computers and social media. Many even have their  own social media  accounts  to promote or sell, they  use online materials  to  "lern" ( study  Torah), and just about for  anything else. I know many orthodox people, and they are on FB, forums  like anyone. In fact, they  even have their own private FB groups discussing aspects  of life- there were several  that were pretty active during the Trump years.  Many had a hard time being vocal  about not supporting  that administration  in the thick of the larger community that did, and still feel the need to remain  underground about it, and use  these groups readily.

If you want  to see  the orthodox community online...go ahead. There's total transparency in accounts with regard to orthodox accounts.  There are singers ( yes, women singers) , clothing designers, educational, beauty and style,  wigs, and culinary IG accounts. And yes, they are fully orthodox, not  necessarily Modern Orthodox.  
Now,  in NY, there are even more extreme Hasidic  sects that are likely not using social  media- Satmar, etc. , but by in large the Orthodox Jewish community is online. They are often  probably not letting their kids use online resources, and they don't really watch  mainstream TV, or have access to mainstrean music.   Online research  in the  frum day schools is super poor or doesn't exist, which is really costing  them  relevant and appropriate  education, but, yes,  this community has computers and use social  media.
