They are so thirsty every convention nukes Grindr into the ground. Republicans are turning into raisins in a desert of their own design.
TLDW;
Basically it’s not actually a thing, a meme account tweeted about it crashing Twitter that said the owner called it the gay Super Bowl, it really caught on.
The owners of Grindr basically agreed with that and then from there it has stayed in the public conscious.
It’s not entirely false either, as there is a correlation of increase with republican events. It’s difficult to discenrn and at the very least it’s never actually crashed the app.its also just funny to say because republicans are largely homophobic.
Edited: a misspelling
Mostly I’m surprised to hear that anyone thought this was literally true and not just a fun exaggeration of the trend for Republican politicians to be heavy users of these apps while traveling
Good video
Great watch.
I’m going to have a hell of a time trying to find this video in six months with just keywords.
Save it to a private playlist? 🤷🏻

Money, professional makeup, you want what you can’t have, etc.
Counter point, I have seen plenty of cute girls without makeup or money. Though the last point is still true.

Am I missing something? How is this picture relevant to this thread, this is neither Sabrina Carpenter (who is in the original meme post) nor Hasan Piker (which the original meme references)
It’s the wrong carpenter
That said I’m always here for some pro Charisma Carpenter sentiment. She routinely stole the show on Buffy
that makeup looks like a fucking allergic reaction
You mean “he”, right ? :-)
deleted by creator
I assume you’re talking about Carpenter and yopyop is talking about Piker
Correct. I thought that would be obvious considering how hot he is.
I don’t know who he is, I don’t know who she is, I don’t know why his meat would be on the jumbotron.
I don’t know why his meat would be on the jumbotron.
There’s a lot of secretly gay Republicans
Also, Grindr apparently crashed from too much traffic in Dallas, where the Republican National Convention is this week
Watch Day Drinking with Seth Meyers episode with her. I might be in love.
Why are Republicans so gay?

Because they get laughed out of our bars
I for one am looking at him with fresh, new, thirsty eyes…
(insert squidward “oh no he’'s hot” gif)
context?
They posted a thirst trap of Hasan Piker in his underwear on the jumbotron at the RNC thinking they would shame him, it did not.

If I looked like that, I’d be begging people to post that pic on a jumbotron
Dawg I came to lemmy so that I don’t have to learn about usa politics but ig there is escape right.
