“it’s just that there is so much going on within Lubavitch that we have our heads full keeping up with that” -chabadshlucha
Wow what an arrogant statement. You have so much to do in the “Great world of lubavitch” that you just don’t have time or a need to quote other Gedolei Yisrael. But you do have time to preach to all the “bored” litvishers who have nothing to do in their meaningless non-chabad lives, and to convince them to learn your seforim/hashkafa and quote your rebbeim. I find that pretty interesting. You gave yourself away pretty quick revealing your true mindset.
Oh and you go on “I would probably never quote R’ Elyashiv, not because I don’t think he’s great, I’m sure he is, and I know he’s a major figure in the litvishe world, but I’m still trying to keep up with saying my daily Chitas (portions of Chumash Tehillim and Tanya) and learning a sicha and or maamar of the Rebbe several times a week, which doesn’t leave me time to look into other things.”
Interesting. Nice to know that you don’t have time to waste with other tzaddikims work, Chofetz Chaim, GR”A, Chasam Sofer, Chazon Ish just to name a few. Do you think that the rest of the oilam DON’T DO ANYTHING? We learn all day without needing your suggestions that we should learn your seforim as well! But that you always make time for. So just as you don’t and never will name or quote a Gadol Hador a Tzaddik from outside of lubavitch, don’t expect us to do any different. And then you rant about how artscroll doesn’t mention chabad rebbeim. Maybe it’s because they don’t have “time” to look into chabad teachings. Sound familiar? Stop trying to fool everyone on this forum and elsewhere in the world. I have lived in crown heights for many years and I know both sides. I know chabad inside and out. Even some within chabad will admit the problem with the superiority outlook. Very few though. But people like you will always defend no matter what in order to fool everyone and always act as a victim. I know it’s easiest to blame everything on others. See everyone hates chabad! You will shout. Get over it noone has time to even think about you for good or the bad.
