(FWIW I found “dark triad” more jarring and skepticism-provoking than if you’d just said “malevolent”, since I take it more seriously as a contentful attempt at psychological diagnosis, and therefore not the kind of thing I expect to be casually dropped into an otherwise-unrelated comment.
If you want a vaguer term, some common options include “bad actors” or “people acting in bad faith”. “Dark-triad-ish people” would also have made more sense to me and made me way less skeptical on a first read.)
