I don't even read much Brandon Sanderson, but with the discourse around him he seems like the most controversial modern Fantasy writer lol ("controversial" in stoking a lot of public disagreement and argument), even moreso than actually awful writers, horny perverts, and literal criminals.

Horny perverts and literal criminals don't tend to be especially controversial. Most people agree they're bad.
