I'm sorry to be the one ruining the fun. The graph is from down detector. A website where people "report" than a site or service is down.
I'm pretty sure at this point people just report grindr being down in any republican reunion just for giggles. During Eurovision and other promient gay friendly events that grindr is put under great stress haven't go down in my experience. I doubt a dude funerals is going to make it.
That doesn't take from a lot of republicans being closeted gay. But I'm almost certain on the troll factor being big here.
Yeah. It’s honestly probably a little bit of that, a little bit that the closeted gay Republican theory holds water, and a little bit of the loghouse republicans in there.
