It was pretty funny watching a Jon Stewart segment today were they kept asking Republican candidates if they would attend and they all had their excuses ready.

I want someone to go around and ask them a serious question, let them spew their propaganda, and for a follow up question, ask them what their Grindr handle is, if they were aware it crashed again, how they feel about that tragedy, and if they managed to make a date before it predictably crashed.

They're only going to get one shot at it, so make it good.

They nutted within five seconds of seeing Hassan’s rippling muscles and were done.

Can someone explain to me why they were even showing pictures of him there? The purpose was what?

Like the other person said, but also I think in their minds it was an own like "this is the type of stuff the far left radicals post vs the strong patriotic messages of the far right" but it didn't land how they thought it would

Plus they blurred his junk

These are the same geniuses that would post pictures of Putin topless on a horse. Some even adopted it as their avatar.

This was supposed to own the libs (because Obama and "Mom jeans"), but it really was not the look they thought it was, LOL. I think they were telling on themselves far more than they realized when the beclowned themselves over Putin.

Yeah because Trump certainly would never post some slop of himself jacked and without a shirt ..

They’re closeted gays and hence, project their internalized self-hatred onto others as intense homophobia. That’s the only rational explanation for it.

Purpose? Eh, I don't know what the purpose was. The reason is because the Republican party is obsessed with Hasan, like in a sexual way.

While this is funny as fuck, Grindr issued a statement saying this isn't true. There were more reports on DownDetector for the app in Dallas area, but user-generated reports from a third party monitoring service =/= an actual outage.

It may mean there are more users in the area at the time, though, which is still funny.

[EDIT]

Not sure why it become a parent comment, but I was responding to someone about Grindr being reported as "down" in the city.

23

There is no mention of down detector or grindr in this article?

Edit: ah I see you were likely trying to respond to a comment further down.

12

Both can be true. Grindr's statement doesn't disprove this claim and is in fact compatible.

If Grindr's down, what's the point? Besides, Lady G and her Ladybugs threw all the best parties. It's just not the same without her.

It most certainly is still homophobic to blame homophobia on gay people. Straight homophobes exist in a vastly higher quantity than any subsection of the population which is gay, the subsection of that which is self-hating, and the subsection of that which channels that self-hatred into promoting homophobia.

No. I don’t buy this.

If a closeted gay person beats a gay person to death for being gay, that’s homophobia.

Being closeted isn’t an excuse.

Speaking of which, fuck Lindsey Graham.

You don't have to buy it, it's a fact. Straight people possess the ability to be homophobic, do you deny that? If not, you must accept that by sheer volume, they outnumber any self-hating homophobe. If you do deny the ability of straight people to be homophobic, that is blaming homophobia in it's entirety on gay people (which is very homomphobic).

If you're just doing the "haha calling the homophobe gay" bit, that's homophobic by using homosexuality as an insult.

Ultimately it just comes down to that, if you see a homophobic person and immediately assume they are gay, that is homophobia. You are linking their bigotry to an alleged homosexuality. What other bigotries do you think someone must secretly be part of the group they hate?

Nothing left to do there after they crashed Grindr I guess

Right there, silly.

Calling homophobic people gay is a) using gay as an insult, homophobic. b) blaming minorities for their own oppression, homophobic. c) creating a narrative where straight people never need to question their biases or prejudices because they know they aren't gay, and therefore can't be homophobic (which is a homophobic narrative)

Do better next time, hon

Your post history literally has you making jokes about mass shooters who are violent with women. I think I'll skip morality tips from the incel.

Feel the need to stalk post histories instead of defending your words, a hit dog will holler. Besides you literally just had a comment removed from a pizzacake thread today, and considering the comments that didn't get removed, I think we both know you're the real incel.

Sorry if insulting Sam Hyde offends you, I know your type idolized him.

ahh, can identify him in a meme, but now it's time to play dumb

Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Is your non-reply to my explanation of your homophobia a tacit admission then? Jumping straight to stalking and personal attacks kinda confirms it.

This is more about hypocrisy than homophobia. These are people pushing anti LGBTQ+ legislation whilst being closeted themselves.

Were they open about their sexuality no one would mind what the fuck they were doing on grindr.

A minority of homophobes are gay, focusing on them and ignoring the majority of plain bigots is wrong.

It's a minority of gay homophobes that is pushing anti LGBTQ legislation which is the problem, otherwise what their particular taste in sexuality is perfectly fine.

Probably because Grindr keeps going down. They'd improve their numbers if they payed to stand up some new servers.

The fact that literally anyone cannot see it's all for surveillance of citizens just boggles my mind. Like what else could possibly take up that much area, memory, and energy consumption. Sry just needed to vent about the chucklefucks claiming it's for Claude to learn how to make better photoshops.

How much of that can be attributed to Benny Johnson, the Russian stooge and "influencer" who likes to talk about manliness, masculinity and manhood? But totally in a non-gay way.
