It seems to me (and this is not an original thought of mine) that the philosopher is generally viewed as immoral. The reason for this is because he raises questions about the moral ideals of whatever community to which he becomes attached, whether that community is religious or irreligious. In raising these questions, he threatens their sense of right and wrong, as well as undermining the narrative structure of their mythologies. douglasdobbins.wordpress/2014/11/13/are-philosophers-perceived-as-immoral/
