Ditto for the MO. 1) Why aren’t you advocating organizations to help transition MO Jews to a Chareidi way of life? 2) Why has only the reverse occurred to you?

Did you even read what I wrote above:

And, to your point, if an MO person would be more comfortable in a chassidic setting, they should be allowed to follow that derech too.

The truth, however, is that there isn’t a need for organizations the other way. Yeshivish and MO Jews aren’t given the message that it’s either their way or OTD. They know that if they want to join a chassidus, all they have to do is approach them. It happens all the time.

Chassidic people, on the other hand, are given the message that if they don’t follow in chassidus, then it’s little or no different than going OTD.
