I’m pretty sure neither of those movements (satmar/bobov) have the eschatological reasons to push chassidus like Chabad does. Remember even the word chassidus means different things to a Lubavitcher and another chassidim. When a Lubavitcher hears chassidus he hears Chabad chassidus, when another chasid hears chassidus, it could be from any branch.
(Please don’t pretend this isn’t true Menachem)
Non Lubavitchers are often referred to as “polisher” or “chagas” chassidim, chagas is an acronym for chesed, gevurah, and tiferes. Those of you familiar with the sefiros will realize why a chabadnik doesnt read the sfas emes or chovas hatalmidim.
Remember the six chabad rebbeim leading up to the Lubavitcher Rebbe are likened to Zeir Anpin, with the Rebbe being malchus. This is the reason on the emphasis Dor Shvii, the seventh generation has been taught the deepest secrets (chabad chassidus) by the Nasi HaDor (LR) in order to bring Moshiach.
It is what it is
