People like to party and have a good time. We're all human. So what?

There used to be a swingers club in Portland. Last I heard it was shut down but maybe they reopened, Ron Jeremy was part owner. Members only, but membership could be purchased at the door. Mostly regular people as far as I could tell from the one time I went.

I've met several polyamorous people in the Northwest and the Midwest. It's not that unusual.

It feels like they’re making too much out of this.

This is nothing new in the Bay Area or anywhere. It’s not a secret society.

When the "dangerous SF streets" angle didn't hold up they had to find a story to dig for even if it's relatively tame and dorky to a lot of us.
There's a quote claiming "the lifestyle" is dorky, cause I guess it's a bunch of dorks doing it, but I don't think orgies/swinging/cocaine and ketamine use is tame to the majority of the population.
It is astounding how dorky Bay Area parties can be.

Lots of tech workers with too much money blowing off steam.

DJs and dancers come from out of town because a few hours in the bay pays 10 times more than Vegas.

But it’s not like anyone can dance. Or even anything remotely party related.

So it feels a bit like clowns at a child’s birthday party.

These lifestyles (swinging, etc) are common since 1960's sexual revolution. This story has no juice, if it is some rando got killed due to some rando's sister was part of such parties. Precisely because Cash App's founder and a wealthy plastic surgeon's wife (that is, Dino Eliasnia's wife Khazar momeni) are involved, this story is 'interesting' to outsiders.
