AFAIC, it’s all over but the shouting. Yes the idolaters will continue their nonsensical babbling, but it’s quite clear that no real Jew is buying this garbage. So what’s next? On Tisha B’Av I went to my Shabbos Shul(non Chabad). I saw one of my friends and I wanted to show him this thread, particularly Seichel who openly states that the Rebbe is god, on my phone. His reaction? “I can’t believe you can say such Loshon Hora on Tisha B”Av.” What he meant, of course, is that I refuse to look at any criticism of Chabad. So why is that? He’s a very fine person. A Ben Torah, Baal Chesed. However, many people aren’t interested in the truth. There are many reasons for this but I’d like to focus on Kiruv. Now Kiruv is a wonderful concept and I fully endorse it, but there’s a downside. Those involved in Kiruv are eternally optimistic. You’re a Mechallel Yom Kippur. No problem. Give him an Aliyah. There’s no such thing as criticism. Now that may be a necessary approach, however there is such a thing as right and wrong. We have this travesty called, “Every Yid a Big Tzaddik.” That’s a complete lie but it dovetails with Kiruv. Just be positive at all times. It’s a corollary that Kiruv workers get so caught up in their work that they forget that Hashem is watching. Not everything goes. There is right and wrong and Chabad idolatry is definitely wrong. But from my experience, most people simply don’t care about Chabad’s excesses. They excuse all Chabad’s excesses. I don’t have a solution except that we have to keep on fighting.
