If you ever want to watch the hottest of hot takes on society then check out Matt Walsh. This aspiring children's book author is an absolute train wreck and recently came out on his show in opposition to capitalism and pro-arranged marriage:
"There's such a surplus [of single people] that you begin to feel like I feel when I'm in the condiment aisle in Wal-Mart trying to buy mustard and there are 197 different types of mustard... the overwhelming array of options paralyzes me... all of modern life is plagued by this problem, everything is plentiful and can be obtained effortlessly and cheaply. But it is too plentiful, too effortless, and too cheap... You can't settle on any one thing because your awareness that there are billions of other possibilities gives you anxiety and makes you unsure you are choosing the best option... so dating is like this... On the complete opposite end of the spectrum are arranged marriages. Instead of a boundless buffet of options a person will be assigned just one... There's far less freedom and autonomy in this system but it is without a doubt superior to our system. We would be happier if they were matched up with someone against their will."
Who the hell watches this nutcase? I can't imagine he appeals to anyone other than incels and pure fascists.
