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

I’m going to have a hell of a time trying to find this video in six months with just keywords.

Republican news outlets seem to be reporting a lot on him (Apparently it's Fox News' new favorite topic, getting even more coverage than trans people) and this is what the post is referencing:

It’s nothing short of hilarious that someone tried to blur the underpants. Are the magats jealous? Thirsty? I mean, guys not my thing but I sure as hell would want a tummy like that too.

Probably just because it's from Instagram, I searched for it on TikTok first and that post put a black box over it 😭

I can't tell if he's done some light anabolics to get that ripped. It's borderline.

Would take a hell of a lot of work in any case.

Doesn’t look like there are any signs of anabolic, nor is his physique egregious

I think you are right, zooming in, it looks natural.

He's still shredded as fuck though. As in he must have focused muscles specifically for the aesthetics?

I was mistaken it's an all natural build I'm pretty sure, yeah that's why I wondered because the abs were so developed but looking closer it's all natural I am almost positive.

Yes, he works out like an hour every morning and has for years. He's also very strict with what he eats

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.

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)

25

That said I'm always here for some pro Charisma Carpenter sentiment. She routinely stole the show on Buffy

I assume you're talking about Carpenter and yopyop is talking about Piker

I for one am looking at him with fresh, new, thirsty eyes...

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.
