Most hashkafically Modern Orthodox Jews also never accepted the current interpretation of the phrase “daas Torah.” They still consider rabbanim to be scholars of halacha who may have special siyata dishmaya in psak beb’chinas dayan hadan emes l’amito but not necessarily have ruach hakodesh in other matters. When Rav Lichtenstein, for example, says “I’m not a navi” they believe him. As far as I can tell, that is the main sticking point in hashkafa between Modern Orthodox and charedim. The charedim see the MO as not giving proper kavod to talmidei chachamim and the Modern see the charedim as ascribing too much power to human beings. I hope I represented each hashkafa accurately without saying anything objectionable about either one.
This is correct and IMHO the main difference. I know Yeshivish people who look for Kulas, and “MO” who look to be machmir, so that can’t be it. There are yeshivish people who hold of Rav Yoshe Ber, and MO that don’t.
From what I can tell, Yeshivish borrowed the “Rebbe” idea from the Chassidim, and applied it to Gedolim.
(I know that probably makes me MO, but since Rav Reuven is also MO, I’m in good company).
Charaidi is a whole different ballgame.
