> I've never heard of Paul Graham saying or doing a single thing that smacks of cultishness I love how he implicitly acknowledges that he does a lot of things that smacks of cultishness :) But yes, believe it or not, I was the first person who posted "Paul Graham Ate Breakfast" as a comment in reddit, and someboy created a fake news webpage and submitted it.

Someone close to him even made a cover for his writings [0] ;). Most of his writings are basic maths + some good thinking, but there are points where he holds opinions many find eccentric. He also discusses cults at length, you might find [1] interesting ;).
