Love is a really stupid word

It can mean so many things that it basically means nothing. Humans are so bad at understanding their own feelings, it is ridiculous. Combined with the inability to observe the internal state of others, our algorithm for determining a consensus on the semantics of language completely breaks down. The result are words like "love". That is the only concept we can reach consensus on and it is so broad it could be basically anything.

A seemingly random human having concerning amounts of power over you without your consent, as if they somehow guessed the root password to your mind. You don't want them to have so much control over you and they never asked for it, nor want to exercise it. Is that love? Is that really the same concept as Romeo and Juliet? Well, no. But then what word can you use to describe it? Why is that even a thing? How can you make it stop?

I don't know how to get answers to these questions. I just don't know what word to type into Google.

Comic transcript

Panel 1:
Parrot is resting their head on a table with empty bottles. They look completely messed up. Rasta-Pigeon is sitting in the corner.
P: It’s over. I blew it. I will never find that puzzle piece. I had this one amazing chance to get close to the most beautiful bird on the whole planet and I messed it all up.
Panel 2:
RP: Dude, you’ll get over it. What is love but a ... biochemical reaction, fabricated ... by ... evolution, ... to ...
Panel 3:
Parrot is looking up from the table, filled with hope again.
P: Wait! Fabricated? Rasta-Pigeon, you’re a genius! I’ll just fabricate a puzzle piece and claim I found it!
RP: Whoa, but how will you make it fit? They took the puzzle, right?
P: Well, that just means we’ll have to do a little breaking and entering. HA! Ha ha. HA ha HA!
RP: Oh oh.
