What to do when you’re banned from the dating app Grindr because you’re transphobic? According to alt-right journalist Chadwick Moore, alert the FBI.
Moore proudly declares himself a ‘libertarian-minded Constitutional conservative, journalist, and rogue homosexual’ in his Twitter bio. He also brags about being blocked by CNN anchor Jake Tapper.
The whole debacle started when Moore tweeted about Grindr shutting down his profile on Monday (23 July). The reason? His transphobic answer to gender on his profile, which he called ‘weird af’, he wrote: ‘There are only 2.’

His thread continued with more transphobia and jabs at the app.
He specifically asks Grindr: ‘Are you a gay dating app, or another tech firm engaged in thought-policing at the behest of radical, unfuckable, far-left activists?’

Then things get especially bizarre when he tags the FBI in his final tweet.
Moore accuses Grindr of prostitution, illegal drug activity, and ‘the spread of disease’. So he wants the FBI to look into them. All because he couldn’t be on the app for being transphobic.

Here’s hoping the FBI really responds, given all they’re going through right now.
It’s not the first time Moore’s received trouble. Earlier this year, he claimed a New York City bar kicked him out for his political ideology. The bar responded, saying it was actually because Moore’s brother-in-law started a fight at the bar’s sister-bar before they came to their bar.
As for the Grindr situation, it’s further proof of Trump supporters’ difficulties in dating.
