@neville in your second to most recent post, you are putting words in my mouth that I never said or meant. So no need to defend myself.
As far as Lubavitch isolating themselves, well it’s half and half. We are more isolated as our shittos tend to take the middle path (see my earlier post for some examples) and thus manage to differ both from much of the chareidi world but equally differ from MO etc..while also maintaining common ground/,hashkofos with both.
When your motivating factors for instance, centre around different things, like schar vs. Moshiach for a starting point, it is easy to farbreng more with fellow lubavitchers.
But we are also isolated by others. Vhameivin yavin no need to reference machlokes needlessly.
That’s why I love this forum, it enables me to relate and exchange Hashkofos and common ground with other yidden. Yet people like you, (or should I say your second to most recent post, as you’ve actually been much more respectful generally as of late,) are anti semetic against lubavitchers. It’s like we’re the Jews of the Jews, and there are many double standards. For example, you complain we isolate ourselves. Yet when I join this forum, how many times have I heard the sentiment, Stop pushing your Chabad agenda. You’re only talking to us to mekarev us etc.. Think about it.
Or lubavitchers are shluchim so we expect more of them than anyone else. Hey there’s lubavitchers who are jerks, that means you’re all phony two faced jerks. Etc. Just look at your own post and you’ll see. Aside from making up what I said and meant.
With regards to your post that we are meshichist winking and your not oblivious etc. do you want to state straight out – the answer to your question also answers how techias hameisim could also happen first? I don’t find it relevant so I don’t mention. There’s no wink wink. You know what we believe and what we don’t, we’ve had several threads over it. If you’re curious you can ask. Like what do you want me to do? Clap for you every time a lubavitcher references a source that can also somehow apply to the Rebbe being moshiach?
