“However I find it ridiculous you even bring Rav Shach into the discussion as you’re not even a litvak and hence can’t even pretend hashkafic integrity here.”
This is what really proves the isolation. Good Chassidishe rabbis reference the Gra and other litvish gedolim; good litvish rabbis reference the Satmar Ruv, Sfas Emes, etc. I’m not saying its a requirement to learn sources outside of your mesorah, but you’re talking like it’s an issur. It’s a good thing, not a bad thing. There’s no eternal struggle between Chassidim and Litvaks. Chabadniks are the only ones still fighting.
I did not mean what RSo thought I meant regarding initiatives. I meant that Chabad refuses to hear or tolorate other hashkafas as you can clearly see here on this thread.
As for the whole “what do you want me to do clap every time you get a reference?” business, I’ll tell you what we want you to do. Stop with the issue-skirting strategies they taught you in shliach school and tell us straight that you believe the Rebbe is moshiach. Otherwise, you have no business accusing us of “misunderstanding” this geula stuff.
