"I do think Derrida is worth reading for philosophical insight, but it

out what is worthwhile or what is worthless?)"

As Schopenhauer was fond of saying, you end up with two heaps, whichever
way you do it. And as Nietzsche wrote to Franz Overbeck, what names you
give them is a matter of indifference.
