Dating apps turned love into a commodity like anything else you shop for on amazon.com.

That is after hallmark and other companies created valentines day to sell more consumerist crap to people.

Fuck yeah i love living in this hellscape where my every emotion is turned into a business opportunity and where the only crime is to rebel.

I gave in and paid money for one of the apps and it still threw up more shit in front of me asking for money and it really wasn't worth what they were charging. Never touching the apps again.

the 4th form of alienation strikes again

When I think of how capitalism has ruined love, I think more in terms of:

  • How the War on Drugs and in general late stage capitalism basically took the person I’d call my ‘soulmate’ if I believed in that crap, away from me before I ever met them.
  • Second bullet point.

There’s a tragic amount of “I’d rather just be alone” in my community (there’s even a song), because of how much this world breaks us.
