I need help /lit/

>Be me
>At book fair
>Browsing stalls
>Go to one
>Something called "theosophy"
>Full of budget occult books
>Person behind counter notices me, begins talking about how great karma and shit is
>Tuning him out entirely
>Need to make conversation
>Begin thinking about what I know about the esoteric
>/lit/ flashbacks
>Ask him if he has any books by Guenon
>He looks genuinely offended
>Begins going on about how awful Guenon is and how wrong he was about theosophy
>Talks about how Guenon is an alt-right influence(?) and how his thought is influencing Putin through Dugin, and how Putin's evil because he "obviously doesn't believe in Karma"
>Feel bad
>Want to leave
>Buy his cheapest book as an apology and run
What do I do now, /lit/? Is it worth reading?
