It’s only getting worse as the decades pass so until the Rabbinic leadership puts a full halt to it, all the justifications and arguments in the world won’t make it any more palatable.”
I’m sorry this bothers you, but meshichism can never be shut down, as what the Rabbonim think hashkafically cannot override the clear printed sichos of the Rebbe,

The only way forward , if so , is for the habad rabbinic leadership to open up a no holds barred discussion of their leaders personality.
How , even a great person , who had a lot to offer [in his hasidim’s eyes], is not infallible .
Not infallible , meaning that not everything emanating from him, is Gods Word mamash.
I know many people who we can learn from , but not every word of theirs is Gods Word.
This is not phitat kavod for their leader. He was human. And prone to mistakes. Does that mean that his followers cant learn from him ? Absolutely not.
Educating the next generation of habad children and newly minted BT’s is this vein , would a TREMENDOUS boon for klal yisrael, besides being much closer to accuracy and fact.
