Don't confuse popularity with strict adherence to an idea.

Popularity comes and goes. The ideas are what remains after all is said and done. The ideas and the record of consistently following those ideas will stand the test of time better than a bunch of people all jumping on a bandwagon. They can jump off just as quickly. This current popularity could all be a just a big setup. The ideas are what need to be grounded in bedrock.
