I see stuff like this and think of these two things:

1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gartner_hype_cycle

or

2) "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

or maybe originally:

"First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you"

> "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

The only people who use this quote sincerely have been crackpots, in my experience.
