You can say this about the
Satmar Rov; he doesn't go with the flow. He sticks to his guns, no matter what. While everybody else is busy trying to unite, he keeps his fences up. Builds them even bigger and stronger. And he has all the proof in the world to back up his point. This is from the
sefer חידושי תורה, not the דברי יואל. I wonder if it was published in the דבר"י as well.
