I'd consider them slightly different. "Hellsite" is a pretty common epithet for sites that are the brain version of cotton candy or Taco Bell: Very few people are under the impression that Tumblr or (to show my age) Fanfiction.Net were productive ways to spend their time. But 'hellsite' to me has a connotation of 'is devoid of intellectual/emotional stimulation and challenge' along with 'harmless'.
What grandparent commentator is talking about is, to me, more about realizing that Twitter isn't Taco Bell: It's arsenic. Or lead in makeup: Actively, immediately harmful. Not just 'bad for you'.
