Sometimes I have a crazy intuition like “if people just categorically refused to work with anybody who seemed untrustworthy or “fake” or trying to take advantage, the world would be better.”

What if everyone is already doing this, but it just looks to you, and perhaps to most individuals taking a common outside view, like they aren't?

It might be common but it definitely isn’t universal. I know I’ve more than once met somebody, thought “wow this is kind of a red flag”, and ignored it because they were “successful” or the institution was prestigious, worked there anyway, and guess what it was indeed a red flag.

Of course. But I can also find examples of times where even an *excellent* coworker did or said something that seemed dishonest, "fake", or insincere to me or to someone else. Given highly politicized office dynamics, this is hard to avoid.

That might sound cynical. Certainly it is not ideal. But I am skeptical that taking a categorical rejection approach would benefit rather than do great harm.

Yeah, categorical rejection is probably bad.
