Programming is "just text". They doesn't mean that programming isn't incredibly powerful or that it can't be used to do dangerous things. Maybe the missing piece that you're unaware of is that LLMs are already very effective at programming and usage APIs. You don't even need to have an LLM that's good at programming to cause damage, it just needs access to APIs that can cause damage.
