We should break up match group. With hammers, if needed.

But I do think a lot of people self sabotage on the apps. They'll be like "no one has an interesting conversation with me" but their profile is like 3 bland photos and "I like to have fun". My guy, you need to give people something to work with.

But also I don't trust that the app is actually showing profiles to anyone with a reasonable algorithm. They probably could actually show me people I'd be compatible with. They chose not to.

There's probably some blood on their hands, thinking about it. Lying to people that this app will lead to relationships when they intentionally sabotage that for profit means people are unhappier, more frustrated, and some of them probably go on to do violence. It's probably producing incels.
