Example?
One of the worst things you can do to yourself is to avoid something good because it seems part of the identity of some group you dislike. Why let them have a monopoly on something good just because they had it first?

I think I get what you mean. When I was a kid, all the cool kids wore Zeppelin shirts. But I didn't like the cool kids, and they didn't like me. So, I didn't like Zeppelin. But, as it turns out, Zeppelin is an incredible band.

Do you have a specific example?

I think this applies to any situation in which one avoids something that happens to be popular with the masses because one doesn't want to be identified with what is "common". Sports, certain movies, books, etc. Very typical, sadly, bc great, timeless art is usually also popular.
