In this excerpt from his YouTube monologue, Dallas Bragg argues that Grindr’s profitability is directly tied to the compulsive, drug‑enhanced usage of its male users. He describes personal episodes of spending twelve or more hours a day endlessly refreshing the app while under the influence of methamphetamine, portraying himself as a ‘zombie’ whose body aches from the marathon scrolling. Bragg claims Grindr’s business model deliberately encourages users to stay high, insatiable, and stuck on the platform, positioning meth users as the primary revenue generators. He ends with a rhetorical challenge, asking viewers if they are tired of being Grindr’s pawn.
