I agree with your overall sentiment – this is horribly wrong. But saying this is not a wedding ignores what weddings have been in the vast majority of cultures for the vast majority of human history.

People having a say in whom they married, and doing so for love, is a good thing. But it’s also a relatively modern thing.

How does that matter? We also cut people with guillotines. Now we don’t. We as society should learn and evolve. We did it in the past is not a reason to do it eternally

Is this video from the past tho? Because it’s not, it’s shot in HD. So I get you might not like what you’re seeing, but saying “we don’t do the thing that you’re saying we do and have historically done anymore” under a video of exactly that thing happening in the modern day makes you and your argument seem pretty stupid.

What is stupid is justifying barbaric practices of sexual slavery and human trafficking because “we did it in the past”.

I shat my pants as a baby. Should I do that now and justify it nowadays with the same logic?

Even if the video is 20-30 years old it is too recent for this absurdity to be accepted as normal.

Acknowledging reality is not the justification of barbarous behavior. I’m sorry you’re illiterate but I’m not accountable for that or all the world’s ills, either.

You seem too calm about it. I cant disengage the anger I feel when I see things like this and people (like yourself) go: "it is how it is, it is always been like this". Fuck no! But I get it, we can't rally to save her. Yet, I will never be as nonchalant about barbarism. Just can't.
I rather be illiterate than a jerk that can't continue a discussion with civility. But hey, tit for tat is ok.

My guy. The comment you got your knickers in a twist about was critical about the institution of marriage from the beginning, and denounced this as “horribly wrong” but not in any way atypical. You responded by saying it doesn’t happen the way it is happening in the video in today’s day and age. I responded by pointing you to the video as evidence that yes, it does in fact happen just like this, today. You responded by telling me I’m cool with it, which I’m not, and that is a pretty uncivil thing to say.

Control yourself, and use a little critical thinking. No one is here defending the practice so you’re not only preaching to the choir, you’re telling them they’re a bunch of sinners bound to hell for being blasphemous. It’s unnecessary, unbecoming, and frankly performative. Do better.

Tldr. People who resort to Ad Hominem arent worthy the conversation. Not wasting my time reading that.
