I’m glad you returned to the thread because you’re a powerful voice against these “misnagdim” to legitimate Judaism. I will, however, take one exception your points. The issues of the Rebbe being Moshiach and a Novi are very important. But yes I agree with you. The Rebbe led his followers on a path where they thought(and still think) of themselves as Lubavichers first and Jews second and obviously that’s a dangerous and slippery slope. Moreover we can’t ignore the fact that the Rebbe rejected Pshatim in the Gemara when they were at odds with his agendas. Simply put, our tradition elevates the Talmud Chacham and the Rebbe glorified the religiously disenfranchised.
