HPMOR definitely has its share of problems -- a mary sue main character for one. But it was incredibly unique at the time it came out, in particular for taking the world of harry potter down as many pegs as it could with such exacting precision. I think it's one of the all-time greats (of fanfics) personally, but you definitely have to get past how full of himself the author is.
the thing is
you don't have to get past how full of himself the author is
the entire cult the author founded is in denial of the fascism
If you prefer, there's the "post-rats," which are a spin-off of the same cult and are pretty much identical except every few minutes they make sure to mention how much they don't like yudkowsky anymore.
