I guess there are different ways to read it. You could say the same of anything you don't like that grows at a superlinear rate. Given our tendency to not like things, and the tendency of things to grow at a superlinear rate, the analogy is non-specific, and hardly neat. For me, it echoes the tendency of every angry child on the internet to call things they don't like "cancer." Edginess of this kind does not speak to me.
