We need our own matchmakers.

For real. Someone needs to make PatriotDate.com or something.

And I know some folks will point to the more niche religious apps, but I'm agnostic so it doesn't work out that well.

Yes. So YOU do it. MAGAmatch. As you say, the religious people are already finding each other. If you really can't find your way to being capital C Christian instead of small-c, which you were born and can't change, maybe figure out a way to meet and marry, just as they have.

The big divide isn't theology, it's children.

if you're not equally yoked, your marriage is a joke

Did someone say conservative women? We have a very short supply of those in NY.

There are no guarantees, just odds.

The Thot : Wife-Material ratio is more favorable in a church, which is why most folks say to start there (plus if you're so inclined, it's good for the soul.) Obviously not all churches are equal: Singles-Ward is typically wall-to-wall women looking for a a husband - if I were Mormon, it would be a one-stop shop. A struggling little church that operates out of a strip-mall in the bad part of town? Not so much.

Some religions have a straight-up matchmaker that, in conjunction with your (and her) family, helps you get that shit sorted.

For the atheist and agnostic? Well... it's gonna be tougher to find that fellow semi/non-believer who is also MAGA-oriented. Seriously, I wish you luck with that. Perhaps try events where lefties aren't really inclined to hang around, like volunteering for based candidates? Most other activities (shooting events, for instance) are gonna be sausage-fests, for obvious reasons. Maybe some of the based ladies can give you pointers?

Honestly, once this pandemic passes, PatriotDate is awaiting you at a local church.

Yes! My friend just got engaged this year and her hairdresser was the one who set her up with a very nice gentleman, in her age range, shared values, etc... but I was thinking back to the old days of matchmaking and where the families were typically part of introducing people.

Bartenders can set people up well. So can UPS drivers.

Anybody who sees a lot of people.

It is considered nice to invite the matchmaker to the wedding, although they might not go. It is considered nice to try to pay them, or buy them something. Some do it as a real job and tell you what they expect to be paid. Some do it just for the honor of service.

Wish we could go to bars. We still have all the Covid 25% indoor capacity restrictions (which most bars can't stay open for), and outdoors is a no-go until like April when it starts warming up.

Change nothing about the church structure but change the book/lecture frequently and I'm in!

Yes.

You could have social gatherings.

Some people get embarrassed at those and wander around awkwardly.

This might be better: make specific recommendations of one specific person to another specific person.

But get some basic issues ironed out before the recommendation. They should just meet to see if they feel a personal, human, interest, not to debate anything substantive. They have been screened already, to agree.

And screened to be sincere, not trying to exploit anybody. To have good character. That might take a thorough internet search, credit rating, and in-person interviewing, by several quite experienced people, and maybe handwriting analysis too.

After all THAT, you will have a good success rate.
