In the latest season of Love Is Blind, set in Washington D.C., a couple named Marissa and Ramses have found themselves in a deep conversation about politics and the military. This discussion is a first for the show, which has typically steered clear of heavy political debates. The couple, who are planning to get married soon, started talking about their differing views on the role of America on the global stage. Marissa, who has a military background, values her time in service but also questions some aspects of military culture. Ramses, on the other hand, is strongly against American imperialism. Despite their different views, they manage to find common ground and understand each other's perspectives. This conversation shows that political differences don't have to tear couples apart. Instead, it's the everyday issues, like birth control and starting a family, that can cause more tension. The show's creator, Chris Coelen, mentioned that the series is designed to weed out couples with major political disagreements early on. However, Marissa and Ramses's unique situation allows them to explore these topics in depth. Their conversation is a rare and nuanced look at how political views can influence relationships.
