This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If countries' leaders weren't dumb as shit they would offer public dating apps that don't try to exploit people.

These apps work great when the goal is to match people who would get along, capitalism enshittified them.

It's obviously how most people want to meet, why not offer people a dating site that isn't shit to fix isolation?

I honestly think countries don't want to fix their birthrates at all, none of them do anything significant to help them.

I feel like if countries' leaders weren't dumb as shit, they'd work to fix healthcare, education, and the economy, as that would have a much larger positive impact than a dating app.

One of these things can be done with a web app for a very small amount of discretionary spending that doesn't need to be approved by any congress or voters

Like it would probably cost less than 5mil to do it right, every city in the country has that money sitting around and all it would take is 1 of them writing up a contract with a developer.
