I think the cheaters tend to end up together over time without realizing it.

How do you think the world has always worked?

I’m not sure it’s a cultural trend, but I’d say users of Blind are not the typically developer. That’s not to dismiss it, but that a subset of a population will always have dishonest people.

Exactly. They are benefiting from a system built on generations of honesty of people before them.
Everything becomes more expensive and dangerous when there isn't basic trust. You have to verify, surveil, and credential everything.
Old people get scammed not because they are dumb, but because they grew up in a society insulated from dishonesty.
Based on how I believe the world works, and on larger patterns at play here, this general cultural trend (if this is in fact what it is) will backfire.
If this is deemed culturally acceptable, and one extrapolates this pattern further, there is little deeper value that a culture has to offer.
