Nah, this time it's "capitalism bad! Evil VCs want to make a profit on the money the invested. How dare they! Evil people" (the speaker literally calls people "evil" for this).

Yes, this is correct, but your sarcasm is misdirection.

The criticism is how they are attempting to "make a profit". With callousness and indifference. Dark patterns and exploitation. Growth at any and all cost.

What is the value in a rhetorical victory by ignoring the message of "how" to make it about "what"?

Who cares? Sounds like an opportunity to make some money by providing a less shit alternative.

I care that people have abandoned moral and ethical norms for the sociopathic pursuit of money.

It has been very unpleasant getting to know you, ajmurmann.
