It is not the insular they hate, although they hate that as well. They hate that community and education are core to being Jewish and that practicing Judaism is impossible without daily synagogue and yeshivot attendance. The boys and men put on their tfellin in congregations of at least 10 men, EVERY morning. The synagogue and Yeshivot are all about the same thing and are called Beis Kenessets or Houses of Learning. Group study and participation is the key form of worship and a substitution for the Temple sacrifices. They have done this relentlessly, regardless of violence and plague for over 2 thousand years and there is a direct line of learning from Moses to today.
Just learn about the Meir Yeshivah, for example, that survived the Holocaust through extraordinary heroism

Cuomo really doesn't understand he is out of his depth. The largest group that is rioting in Borough Park is the Bobov Hassidim. They had been annihilated in the Holocaust and rebuilt from just 300 people in New York,

They didn't live through all of this just to have there Yeshivots and children pulled from them by NY State.
