This one opens with COVID and codependency — why needing people got treated like a personality flaw, and what the pandemic actually exposed about that. From there we follow the money: emotional capitalism turning partnership into a checklist (flowers, good morning texts, walking on the traffic side), and therapy-speak becoming ammunition people use on each other without ever sitting in a room together. Then the bigger structures come in — economic homogamy, why “caste-blind” and “colorblind” are both oxymorons, the actual data on racial hierarchy in online dating, and how fetishization hides inside what gets called representation.
