There's a recurring online tendency to aestheticize consensus itself. The imagined future village is full of emotionally compatible people who enjoy communal gardening, conflict resolution circles, acoustic folk music, mutual aid potlucks, and repairing bicycles together at sunset. Which is nice for the people who genuinely enjoy that lifestyle. But plenty of humans are solitary, prickly, obsessive, urban, nocturnal, sensory-seeking, technologically attached, contrarian, novelty-seeking, private, or just plain difficult. Those people do not evaporate after the revolution. They do not get Left Behind while you are Raptured into the Utopia. They become your neighbors.

nobody else doing it like me. particularly because the way i’m doing it is needlessly difficult

Also sometimes the purpose of a sex scene is to be titillating and that's, like, fine. You wouldn't go out there and argue that movies shouldn't have jokes unless they "serve a narrative purpose" because you understand that generally the purpose of a joke is to make the audience laugh and perhaps release some tension. Being horny is a normal human emotion like being amused or being scared and sometimes media is trying to evoke that particular emotion; the artist doesn't owe you a 30-page double-spaced justification for trying to make you feel something through their art. Your separation of horniness and sex from other emotions and experiences is sex negative and deeply ingrained in cultural conservatism.

That's one hell of a conspiracy theory you're believing, bud. Just out of curiosity, who's "they"?

romance is finding someone with matching passion and intensity, leaning in for the first kiss over a pottery wheel, getting caught, neck snapping, trusting an old man to hide the body in exchange for forgery talents, joining a gang of criminals led by said old man, being exceedingly good at scams and schemes and thinking it’s all so fun and silly

What if it was 1800's Australia, and you were in LOVE with a genius surgeon and thief who CANNOT READ and whose greatest enemy is OLIVER TWIST. And this surgeon saved your life with a never before done HEART SURGERY. But your love was FORBIDDEN by your MOM who has caught you not once but TWICE in bed with him post-illicit-and premarital-SEX, so your mom is going to EXECUTE him.

Lady Belle Fox truly one of the most characters ever. She's the governor's daughter. She is not a "Miss" and you'd do well to call her "Milady", thank you very much. She's the nerdiest person alive. A guy proposes to her and her response is "please don't" and "why." She blackmails the least misogynistic doctor in the hospital to make her the first female surgeon. She thinks any work other than cutting people open is beneath her and she's outraged you'd ask her to clean anything. She'll be on her hands and knees scrubbing the floor regardless. She's ambitious, she's confrontational, she knows her worth, and most of all she's kind. She challenges people and loves to be challenged in return, but she's not above being petty. She pours acid on her own leg to test a theory. She breaks a quarantine fully willing to risk her own life to find out what's causing a cholera outbreak. The medical world agrees on a theory, but she knows they're all wrong and she's going to prove it, even if they don't view her as qualified for anything. She invents a medical procedure and teaches the doctor she loves how to perform that surgery on herself, which he then has to do with a gun to his head. How could you expect me to be normal about her?
