I get extremely suspicious of people when I discover that there's some guy whose work they're super into and have made the foundation of their personal philosophy. I do this even if the guy is someone whose work I like, and even if they're someone I like personally.

(Theoretically I would also get extremely suspicious if the person whose work they were into was not a guy, but in practice the object of intellectual fixation usually seems to be a guy)

I've been seeing this with David Deutsch a lot recently - a lot of people are super into him and whenever I find a new one I have a very strong "Oh gods not one of you again" reaction.

My most unpleasant interactions on Twitter so far have been with the David Deutsch fandom. Blech.
