Wow I’m sorry to have offended you. I can only speak for myself and try to be in line with what the Rebbe would have said, and I’m not perfect and I’m glad you seem to have the expectation that all lubavitchers since be angels, but unfortunately, we are very human, and of course there will be some arrogant people or whatever other chesronios. But we also, as all of us here, have many more maalos:) All I’m trying to say is that people need to learn what speaks to their neshama and inspires then to serve Hashem. For me, that’s chassidus, and I can’t get enough of it because there are at least hundreds of volumes of chabad chassidus. When I learn chassidus, I feel how it changes my world view and avodas Hashem for the better. That’s why I don’t focus on any other mussar- etc. Because I have my hands full as I said. If learning sifrei mussar does that for you, then that’s great.
I do still feel that everyone should learn chassidus but that’s not because I think it’s the only thing with value. Chas vsholom! Any Torah refines a person. Just we learn the conversation between the Baal Shem tov and Moshiach, on Rosh Hashana kuf chof zayin I believe, since we’re every young, and based on Moshiachs answer to the Baal Shem tov s question of Aimosai kosi Mar? When will the Master come? Moshiach answered “Lichsheyofutzu maayenosecha chutza” when your wellsprings (of chassidus) will spread out.” So the Rebbeim have taught us that it is imperative for us to spread chassidus everywhere. But chas vsholom to suggest that anything else is not Torah.
