Life is unjust, get used to it
I've spent several years writing in the ADHD space.
That space, like many others, is filled with idiots with large followings. One is forgiven for believing popularity somehow equals truth. That those with the largest following possess the greatest knowledge, the greatest wisdom. But I think the opposite is often true.
Everywhere you look you'll find this unjust. Idiots winning over the wise.
So we better get damn used to it. The book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament has helped me do that. Take this for example:
"I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor the bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding. Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all".
