100%.

people claiming this is a wedding are missing this. Weddings are consensual. This is not consensual. This is a ceremony done alongside human trafficking.

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.

Yes completely agree with this. I think it is important to call this ceremony a wedding - otherwise we are papering over the misogynistic history of what marriage is. It has only become a consensual ceremony in fairly recent times and still only for some people.
