Last week a political candidate, who happens to be a former President of the United States of America, briefly visited the grave of the late leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch faith, less than a month before the upcoming scheduled election there. The sect laid out the proverbial red carpet for him, tying up the site and area for many hours, bringing some of its top leaders to greet him there.
Why the hullaballoo and kowtowing? Chabad seeks to promote the grave of its long dead leader, and by extension, itself, as the representative of Judaism, its vanguard, and epitome. Having well-known personalities and celebrities visit there is integral to this PR campaign of Chabad Inc. of Krinsky, Kotlarsky & Co. Of course, they try to hide their machinations and manipulations from view (at least the more sophisticated and aware ones). But sometimes it slips through, as in this case, when a leading Chabad-Lubavitch English news site let loose its PR goal, calling the gravesite the holiest Jewish site in North America (but didn't they just claim that 770 = The Holy Temple in their book?). Instead of the truth, that is the resting place of a false messiah ממש, leader of a fringe sect, they try to sell their scam to the unsuspecting and ignorant, e.g. Jewishly illiterate Jews and gentiles. Their arrogance, audacity, brazenness, and delusional mindset is, as people might say, off the charts.
Another aspect of it is that the tomb complex is controlled by the more polished establishment faction of Lubavitch PR, of Krinsky, Kotlarsky, etc., as opposed to the 770 complex of their late Rebbe's Temple, which is under control of the openly messianist faction. The open chaos and insanity at 770 clashes with the more controlled, rational image that Chabad PR wants to project, so therefore they hesitate to bring prominent guests there, preferring to host them at the grave, where they have them pay homage at their leader's resting place.
It is therefore that the Chabad-Lubavitch gravesite (as well as other Chabad-Lubavitch institutions) should be avoided, distanced, and surely not supported. Visiting gives support to them and their twisted agenda. How great and foresighted were the gedolim of the past like Rav Schach and the Brisker Rav זצוקללה"ה זי"ע, who warned us so long ago against the Crown Heights sect.
Visiting the grave promotes them and their late leader. Kowtowing to Chabbad and their agenda to use PR and various other means of disinformation to promote their deviant faith as not only legitimate Judaism, but the leading form of it, is a grave danger and threat to the integrity of our faith. It is an agenda that should be resisted and combatted by legitimate thinking Jews. While the tomb of their leader may have gotten a worthless Trump-K hechsher, true Jews should realize what is afoot and treat it as being chazer-treif,
Don't get played by Chabad-Lubavitch. Don't fall for their scams. Stay away from their late Rebbe's grave, their Temples, their so-called Chabad houses. Don't contribute at all to them, any contributions and collaborations with them support them in their effort to hijack Judaism and replace it with their heresy.
In the זכות of following our gedolim, עיני העדה, and staying away from their heretical sect, may we be zoche to true Yiddishkeit, and a blessed, sweet new year.
Update - While one leading Chabad site described their leader's grave as "the holiest Jewish site in North America", as above, the official Chabad PR took a somewhat different tack, claiming it to be "the most visited Jewish holy site in North America". Truth be told, both of these brazen claims are deceptive and misleading, for multiple reasons, such as 1) who decided that it is holier than numerous other sites?, 2) how do they know that it is the most visited? 3) The numbers of visitors, even assuming they are true, presumably do not distinguish between members of the Chabad-Lubavitch sect and normative Jews, nor between repeat visitors, and those who just come once. Since a great number of the visitors are followers of the Chabad faith, many of whom visit multiple times a year, especially at certain times such as special holidays of Lubavitch, e.g. birthdays and death anniversaries of their leaders, when they got out of prison, and so on, the complex is really not visited that much beyond followers of Chabad and those under their sway.
