Here, full circle, special for you, all subtext removed. To whit:

Having a subculture of stereotypes, vague prophecies, and self-proclaimed oracles is bad. The degrees of bad vary, but such a subculture is net negative at all levels. This is not a “bad apples” deal, as your original comment implied. It is a systemic problem, and using meaningless bullshit to stereotype people makes you a worse person, at any level.
