Totally. We all unquestionably are. But there is a moral difference between doing so out of ignorance or out of personal necessity (you gotta eat) and doing so out of willful ignorance or out of personal luxury.

I did not respond to that post because he uses Uber. Hell, I live somewhere where I can't get a cab, the train doesn't go where I need to go, and Lyft just literally doesn't have cars here (it's weird and I haven't investigated it, but there are times where I just don't get pickups near my house, though they pop up half a mile away if I walk). I use Uber in those situations, and I don't feel bad about it.

I responded to his post because, yanno, certain folks love the term "virtue signaling"--what is it when you sign up for a website just to brag about how little you care about the people around you?

That deserves a little criticism, I think.

Fair point. Balanced answer. Can't argue.
