TFW you're so misogynistic you fuck only dudes

[–] [email protected] 70 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I dont fuck with women because women like dick and thats gay. Only way to have straight sex is just straight dude on stright dude action.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 months ago

Hell yeah, bro. Continuing the noble tradition of the Spartans, who were so straight that they banged only dudes until the day they married their wife. When they consummated their marriage (ew) she had to shave her head and be in a dark room so that the husband wasn't creeped out by a femoid partner.

Project

I said the real Project 2025.

Perfection.

I don't want to be the killjoy here, but I do think this is the kind of too-perfect-to-be-true story one might find out a week later was fake news. I'm holding out for a Snopes entry.

Like remember how it was big news that people weren't buying Corona beer during the early days of the pandemic because they confused the name? Fake news.

Not making a prediction here on this Grindr story, just urging skepticism until it's confirmed.

And if it is true, I'll laugh my ass off.

I don't know about crashing, but Grindr has always seen spikes at RNC and CPAC events. This gets brought up every time there's an event.

It's like the whole "Pentagon Pizza Meter" thing.

The screenshot doesn't appear to be faked: https://downdetector.com/status/grindr/map/

Whether the data is correct is another question.

Here's a local paper reporting on it.

The Grindr user said on a normal day you'd encounter maybe 10 users with no profile photo, but Thursday, when he checked the app, he said he stopped counting at 50 blank profile photos.

Why is it hard to believe? This is a very well documented thing about Republicans.

They've been getting busted in truckstop bathrooms for decades.

It would be even funnier if Grindr intentionally turned the app off ahead of some big Republican gathering. See what shakes out.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Fake or not, I'm not taking any actions based on it. It's just a funny story. I don't think we need to wait to laugh. We can assume it's true and no harm will be done.

Tbf Corona stock DID go down, probably much more than one would have expected given the economic turmoil of the time.

Many conservatives would be a lot less angry if they would just openly admit that they like cock.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 months ago

But then they would be mad at themselves since the only strength they can muster in life is holding back.

... Does this mean the Republican Party is embracing the Gay Agenda?

[–] [email protected] 76 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah, just finding new ways to fuck the LGBTQ+ community.

Ugh. Did you have to make me imagine fucking a Republican?

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So, which type did you imagine first? The fat rich owner republican? Or the undereducated poor "temporarily embarrassed billionaire"?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I once made out with a Republican. Then I found out she was a Republican. Fucking was not going to happen.

Vote. Emphatically say “HUHN! You like that?!” with every check mark.

It's too early in the morning for me to face the imagery of balls deep fascist on fascist action.

This person went undercover at CPAC and as a side project they made a fake Grindr profile. It's right at the beginning of this video at 0:40.

Crazy that that video is 11 years old and still just as relevant.

Makes sense. J.D. Vance was in town.

I didn't realize there were that many Log Cabin Republicans that attended this year...
