    By “this romantic idea”, do you mean the “richest man in the world” bit? I think people are responding under the impression that you think the idea of romance itself is propaganda, not the idea that romance is equivalent or superior to monetary wealth. That makes a little more sense; “tell them that love is worth more than gold so we can take all the riches”. Not saying I necessarily agree, but it’s certainly a less bleak outlook.

      That would be the gist of it. “Focus on romance lowborns, that’s all you need to be happy”.

      Love and family are great and very likely the best part of our lives, but it doesn’t make us any richer.
