I loathe the conflation as the resurrection of the stupidest bits of puritanism, the kinds that caused people to say they want kings back. It is always used to immediately pathologicalize anything remotely enjoyable to draw a straight line between "feels good" and "addictive" to justify controling others. It plays the same paternalistic game self-proclaimed leftists love to play to manufacture consensus via slight of hand. Either the people you are "helping" either agree with you or their objections may all be patronizingly dismissed as being controlled by noxious external influnces.
