Why it worked

The video likely resonated due to its relatable, albeit exaggerated, commentary on dating and media consumption, using humor and a slightly provocative tone to engage viewers.

Summary

The creator humorously suggests that people under 25 are attracted to their significant others for shallow reasons, then pivots to a more complex idea about engaging in problematic behaviors in media. The video ends with a playful accusation of being a "criminal" for consuming such content.
