oh I don't doubt it's been a thing forever, I'm just taken aback by how much these guys in particular sound like evangelicals when invoking the messiah, down to like the exact same formulations of "this [hyperlocal event/culture war thing I'm obsessed with/minor inconvenience] is incontrovertible proof of the turbulent times that herald the (second) coming"

They're also literal evangelicals in the sense that they evangelize - unlike any other Hasidic movement, their whole thing is trying to get irreligious ethnic Jews to engage in religious observance.
