Even dating preferences are politicized. I wonder if height is a filter these nags want to eliminate. I have been traumatized numerous because women filter me out because my being on the wrong side of the Bell curve for height.

I suspect the authors are butt ugly and unsuccessful in their efforts to find “hot singles waiting for you 1 mike away”.

It’s the intellectual adjunct to the inceb Reddit subgroup.

established theories surrounding "queer and social justice"

Gee, when I was a student they were still called a priori conclusions and confirmation bias.

There’s a joke about a union official who goes to a union run whore house. The upshot is, for the same money, he gets the senior-most whore instead of the one he wants. So, if I want a tall, thin blond woman I will be matched with a short, fat black woman? That may represent the required “equal outcome” but will it make either party happy?

Because hate or patriarchy or something.

Don’t you know, we’re all now “bigots” because we won’t date a tranny. Yes, they’re saying this now.

So if hot chicks don’t want to date me, it’s the app’s fault? Makes sense.

Sooo.... if I don’t want to date a dude, and the app screens out potential dudes.... that’s bad?

No. I’m going to have to stick with not dating a dude.

When people exercise free choices but what they choose is not coincident with the politically correct narrative, it won’t be long before the Democrats seek to eliminate those freedoms.
This dating app story seems trivial. However within a decade good luck buying a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The climate narrative claims that such vehicles are harmful and that if you must own a personal vehicle, it must be an electric vehicle powered by “renewable, sustainable green electricity”. This of course is nonsense and violates the laws of physics. However it won’t stop the Democrats from trying to restrict freedom and force people to conform to their bizarre narrative.

A study conducted by Cornell University and University of Washington professors and researchers concludes that filters used in dating apps reinforce societally influenced biases and division.

The filter apps do what the user tells them to. These researchers, therefore, are promulgating the idea that people should not be able to form relationships (of whatever sort) by their own choosing.

The hell with the researchers.

This is not a joke.

How about they concentrate on their studies instead of this constant foolishness.

The study proposed that changes must be made both in the design and marketing of dating apps to diminish user bias and discrimination and foster "social justice and equality."

I wonder how upset they would be if people started telling them "screw social justice and equality".
