ICYMI, Love Is Blind returned to our screens on Feb. 14, in honor of Valentine’s Day. But while watching the first few episodes, fans of the hit Netflix dating show — in which contestants aim to fall in love sight unseen — couldn’t help but notice that a bunch of the male cast members look kinda similar. I’m talking about Daniel, Alex, Mason, Ben, and Dave.

Three animated Spider-Man characters stand in a room, each pointing at the other in confusion, creating a humorous standoff

This is Daniel:

Alex:

Mason:

Ben:

And Dave:

Dave sitting in an armchair, labeled "David, 32, Medical Device Sales," in front of a circular background

And here, you can find a side-by-side image of all five men in their professional LIB photos.

Needless to say, the lack of diversity among five of the main figures this season has got people talking. “Same letter slightly different sans serif fonts ass cast,” one person tweeted. “The way I was so confused the WHOLE show,” someone revealed.

“Why do they all have the same face structure and hair colour? Their hairstyles aren’t even that distinct from each other,” another tweet read. “I stopped watching midway through episode two because I had no idea Daniel, Alex, and Dave were 3 different men,” one user admitted.

“someone in casting has a type,” someone else quipped.

Meanwhile, several people joked that LIB had revoked its DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policy. Y’know, since President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order calling for an end to the federal government's DEI programs.

Tweet about diversity in "Love Is Blind" with concern over casting five similar men and differentiating them on the show

“If ANYTHING shows the importance for DEI, it should be this new season of #LoveIsBlind. Because there’s no way you’re casting these 5 men on the same show, giving them all a large amount of camera time, & expecting me to know the difference,” one viral tweet read.

“Did ‘love is blind’ revoked DEI too like….” someone else quipped on TikTok.

And elsewhere on TikTok, the jokes kept rolling in:

Social media comments discuss a TV show, with opinions on cast diversity and a viewer surprised by the number of participants, One person commented, "LOVE IS BLAND"
