How Libs Cornered the Love Industry

It’s no secret that top dating apps are run by liberals. Sam Yagan, for example, weaponized his dating platform OKCupid in 2014 to oust Mozilla CEO Brendan Eich for holding conservative views. Though reportedly only less than 10% of people meet their significant other online, it’s still a creepy development for conservatives who are already under pressure in social media.


Like show business and traditional mainstream media, dating apps are often run by Jews, often Ivy league elites. Early adopters are often college students from liberal institutions. In other words, d ecision making here is very concentrated. In particular, t his article will show the broad reach of InterActiveCorp (IAC).

OKCupid’s Downward Spiral into Liberalism

OkCupid was launched in 2004 by Harvard grad and Syrian Jew Sam Yagan.

At first, OKCupid was an open platform in the sense that anyone could create a profile and message any other user.


OKCupid’s blog started to post statistics in 2009 showing that people were generally most attracted to white males and Asian females. While from 2009-2014, OKCupid says people reported more and more that they were more willing to date outside their race, their actual behaviors remained pretty much the same.

OKCupid was purchased by InterActiveCorp (best known for Match.com) in 2011.

In 2014, the company added a number of qualifications to sexuality, in line with liberal trends, including asexual, genderfluid, pansexual, sapiosexual, and transgender categories.


In 2017, OKCupid abandoned open messaging to a Tinder-style matching system. Everyday users railed against this development.

During the Trump administration, the OKCupid blog focuses on issues such as planned parenthood, virtue signaling about banning a “white supremacist” from the site, and its new marketing campaign featuring a black male/white female interracial couple . (Despite OKCupid’s earlier statistics showing that white women generally saw blacks less favorably, the classic liberal media trope is to celebrate the black man/white woman pairing.)


As it has seemingly ramped up its liberalism, OKCupid’s popularity seems to have fallen, based on a Google keywords search.


Tinder

Tinder is another top dating app that has maintained its popularity and become part of mainstream culture . Developed largely by Iranian Jews in IAC’s Hatch Labs company incubator, people choose matches largely based on pictures.


Liberal Orthodoxy Spreads

Hinge was meant to be an alternative to superficial Tinder, calling itself the “relationship app .” It even began to move away from requiring Facebook to log in. However, in June 2017, IAC purchased a 51% stake in Hinge.


Like Tinder, Happn gives you the opportunity to match with people , but with people who crossed your path . This year, Happn introduced a new requirement - that you to log in using Facebook . Facebook is owned by Jewish American liberal Mark Zuckerberg. This development is troubling given recent collusion by tech giants (including Facebook, Apple and Google) to silence conservative broadcaster Alex Jones.

Few Alternatives

There a few alternative apps that are more amenable to conservatives.

Plenty of Fish is a dating app, near the top of the heap in terms of users. It has an open messaging system like OKCupid once had and also has fewer ultraliberal overtones than OKCupid. Plenty of Fish is also owned by IAC.


The CEO of IAC is Jewish American Barry Diller, a billionaire and media mogul who was well established before joining IAC. Through Tinder, OKCupid, Plenty of Fish and Hinge, IAC has a remarkable sway in American dating culture.

ChristianMingle is the only major app discussed here that is not owned by IAC. Its leadership also appears to be Jewish.
