Me “After he showed him what a beinoni”
You “Sly answer to pull on a naive fellow but no cigar
it means that he is less than virtually every & any born to a Rebbe’s family”
Not within lubavitch. In fact chassidim were under tremendous pressure to choose the older son in law
of the Frierdiker Rebbe as their new Rebbe from members of the family. They refused as they didn’t see him as “Rebbe” material. Until today, the Rashag while highly respected as a tremendous chossid etc is not seen as a tzadik of Tanya, and I don’t know about beinoni. It’s possible. Especially in his later years. But everyone agrees that the Frierdiker Rebbes only grandson was no beinoni. So no. No sly cigar. Honestly we probably respect the chofetz chaim more than the litvaks themselves, at least by one litvaks admission
