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.
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
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.
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.
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)

They are so thirsty every convention nukes Grindr into the ground. Republicans are turning into raisins in a desert of their own design.

Still not a thing

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.

Probably just because it's from Instagram, I searched for it on TikTok first and that post put a black box over it 😭
chuckleslord@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 14d
No, the RNC blurred it.

Japanese underwear. don't want to get the crowd too stimulated.

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.
kamee@lemmy.zip · 15 pts · 14d
Doesn’t look like there are any signs of anabolic, nor is his physique egregious
bedwyr@piefed.ca · 7 pts · 14d
I think you are right, zooming in, it looks natural.
mirshafie@europe.pub · 5 pts · 14d
He's still shredded as fuck though. As in he must have focused muscles specifically for the aesthetics?

lordziv@lemmy.nz · 3 pts · 14d
Yes, he works out like an hour every morning and has for years. He's also very strict with what he eats

The usual MAGA pose for their secret Grindr profile:

Why is she so hot
Varesti@lemmy.zip · 40 pts · 14d
Money, professional makeup, you want what you can't have, etc.
HerbGrower@slrpnk.net · 12 pts · 14d
Counter point, I have seen plenty of cute girls without makeup or money. Though the last point is still true.
thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 0 pts · 14d
that makeup looks like a fucking allergic reaction

It's the wrong carpenter

That said I'm always here for some pro Charisma Carpenter sentiment. She routinely stole the show on Buffy
yopyop@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 14d
You mean "he", right ? :-)
spacegoat@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 14d
What
melvisntnormal@feddit.uk · 17 pts · 14d
I assume you're talking about Carpenter and yopyop is talking about Piker
yopyop@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 14d
Correct. I thought that would be obvious considering how hot he is.
Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk · 21 pts · 14d
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.
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works · 19 pts · 14d
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

Hasan Piker (Twitch political commentator)
Sabrina Carpenter (Pop Star)
RNC (Random bullshit)

Watch Day Drinking with Seth Meyers episode with her. I might be in love.

Why are Republicans so gay?
MTZ@lemmy.world · 26 pts · 14d
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 14d
Because they get laughed out of our bars

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.
LostCarcosan@lemmy.today · 7 pts · 14d
If I looked like that, I'd be begging people to post that pic on a jumbotron
