Maybe on a general forum. But "software ethics" is a topic of increasing interest as of late, and a community like HN would point to dating apps as exhibit B of dark software patterns that enshittify society as a whole. That's my first and best interpretation of such a comment on here.

Social dynamics after these dark patterns are resolved is a whole other topic. And honestly not a topic I'm interested in talking about.

In the same way there's an overlap between video gamers and school shooters, sure.
