n0m,
“ If you want to talk about changing hassidic values like socks, than either Gur or Satmar alone have used up all the socks and and left none for Chabad.”
So the way it went, these chasidim came out from Europe and simply continued living their traditional chassidishe lives. The same people, with the same traditions.
In fact, they proud themselves with that.
Chabad seems to most as if there was some pivoting and and changed from what was considered chasidus in pre war Europe.
I’m sure there is a good explanation to that.
