“Geeks, mops, and sociopaths” describes the invasion of exploitative parasites when a scene gets popular. (I also suggest too many normie fans *can* be a problem, although it has different dynamics.)https://meaningness.com/geeks-mops-sociopaths …

These are great examples! And I see ones like these all the time. They do seem somewhat different from the sociopathic dynamics I wrote about.

Difference may be that they are organized parasites, launching an attack from within their own platform; rather than individual entryists, which is more what I had in mind in the “sociopaths” discussion. Those subvert your scene from within, instead of extracting rent externally.
