That reminds me of some thoughts I had but didn't post, and makes for broadening the discussion a bit...
The fake STO teachings are more similar to old religious dogmas than genuine STO, which is not an accident. STS beings, both human and non-human, have found it useful to promote fake STO teachings throughout human history, and to work to replace the real with such imitations whenever the real appears.
Look more closely at Christianity, and what do you see? Jesus presents the heart of positive spirituality, but not the mind. For the mind, you need to look elsewhere, without fear of damnation. And then there's Revelations, where the "angels" make clear that they will come - from the sky - and that when they do, people will obey or burn. A pre-sci-fi alien invasion story, where the conquerors are presented as saviors.
The more naive left-hand path approaches often rebel against mainstream religious dogmas, at the core. But to people who don't have those basic views of God and all the rest, such paths in their milder forms simply look silly, and in their serious forms look self-defeating. When serious interactions with intelligent and malevolent beings enter the picture, here's how it starts to look...
Imagine a demon who wishes to enslave a person. The person is fearful. So the demon sets things up so that the person, walking through life, will painfully smash toes into something while being handed a note which says, "You didn't obey me enough! - God". The person believes the note, and, swearing and muttering while holding the foot, jumps back towards the demon who seems to offer salvation from the cruelty of God.
What's the nature of fake STO in relation to real STO? Basically, STO tends towards spiritually producing energy, while STS tends towards simply consuming it. So any big system run by highly polarized STS beings needs a big external power supply. External to the beings, but ideally not to the empire. Beings who are captured or co-opted or grown in a controlled environment, and put into a "weak" or "fake" STO configuration, become like dependable batteries or power generators who do not threaten the "Matrix" system they power up.

It's a false paradigm created by the conditions of veiling and being human, and it's amplified, exacerbated, and pushed/peddled by STS beings. It's very salubrious for them to have us believe that, because it can cause those who are inherently positive to turn to the STS path. How much or little success they have on it matters not, either way it works out good for their agendas.
They would want you to believe that STO is all about suffering, sacrifice, austerity, self-denial, loss of individuality, victimhood, powerlessness, weakness, and conformity, and that joy is unimportant or has no place on the positive path(and they even have some beings masquerading as STO ETS/angels/ascended masters and what have you to promote this fake dogmatic version of STO. Some of these beings might even believe they are positive). It's a lie, although it can seem a very convincing one behind this veil.
In actuality, the STS path is the one that is very rigid, extreme, and narrow in its focus, while TRUE STO is more balanced, holistic, and centered. You've got practically half of your available focus to take care of JUST yourself on the positive path(not to mention all the opportunities in creating win-win situations that create joy for both yourself and others at the same time), because you are equally worthy of happiness as all those you would serve. The STS path doesn't believe in win-win situations. They have a zero-sum rather than zero-point worldview; somebody has to lose for somebody else to win. The FAKE STO path you(and I) find so repellant is exactly the same. Win-win is "cheating" or "unpolarized" or "not positive", and to be properly STO is to be a victim/loser/martyr/etc. It sounds like just another side of a two-piece STS system designed to create misery...because that's exactly what it is.
It sounds like this "mentor" type figure you've had in your life is pushing the false STO mindset on his "disciples", while at the same time displaying behavior of his own that is STS.
