rubygems - Ruby cannot load such file - active_support/core_ext/object/blank

Question

I was trying to run brew doctor but system popped up error of

/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require': cannot load such file -- active_support/core_ext/object/blank (LoadError)

Searched online and another post suggested to just "gem install activesupport" but then I ran into error of:

ERROR:  Error installing activesupport:
    i18n requires Ruby version >= 2.3.0.

I also tried to rvm install ruby-2.3.0 but the same error popped again

Try `brew tap --repair` and make sure `brew doctor` looks reasonable.

Running brew style fixed this issue for me.

As mentioned in the comments, for some people the solution is:

brew update-reset
