There's actually a creep who posts on this very board who makes this exact same stupid argument about the Dissident Right and race. It's so enraging. It's just simply a fallacy where you imply that there's something pathological about an interest and therefore you can dismiss it because the person isn't motivated by knowledge they're personally 'obsessed'.

They do that with WW2 as well they call us the 'obsessed' ones when it comes to say National Socialism or the holocaust. Meanwhile our entire society makes it mandatory that you learn the right lesson about those events and makes learning about it compulsory and deviation from orthodoxy a crime. Yet we're the ones who are 'obsessed' with Hitler.

It is because they are narcicists. They want your attention, but they want you to focus on what they are interested in or they want you to obey what they think you're allowed to say.
'obsessed' is a way for them to say that you should talk about something else that they deem appropriate for you.
