Why is it that people look at the MO people who don’t follow the rules and claim they represent the “true” MO, but chareidim who don’t follow the rules are deemed the exceptions?
Chareidim who do things wrong don’t do it beshita. If a Chareidi women would wear something which is not tzenua, or be mechallel shabbos, she would not claim to be right, she would understand it is wrong. Nobody sticks their wrongdoings and makes it part of the ideology. In MO, however, many labelled as MO will take their laxness in Halocho and blame it on the MO shitta.
A Chareidi person who commits fraud will either admit he is wrong, or find some sort of heter, but won’t say “we don’t keep halocho”.
