Everyone loves pigs (the animal),????? ???? ?????? ??????? but racist pigs (the jerk humans) are a breed Tinder isn't down with.
The dating app delivered a mighty smackdown in the form of an open letter Tuesday, slamming "racist rants" and "sexist pigs." Their blog post addressed one sexist pig in particular, who's just been banned from the app for life. And on National Pig Day, of all days.

Not only were people outraged by the abuse, but others came forward with their own allegations of abusive behavior by the same guy.
Naturally, Tinder didn't want to be associated with such high levels of douchery. Rosette Pambakian, the vice president of communications and branding, penned the open letter to "Nick (and anyone who behaves like you)" and had it posted on the company's blog.
"Tinder has a zero-tolerance policy on disrespect. No racist rants. No sexist pigs. No trolling. No jerks who can't get over their own inadequacies long enough to have a decent conversation with another person on Tinder," she wrote. "I was personally offended by what you said. Your words to that woman were an assault, not only on her, but on all of us."
Via GiphyThe real doozy though, has to be this line: "You have a lot to learn, Nick. I see that you studied global business, and that you joined your school's programs for young entrepreneurs and technology management. Great choices. Because you'll need to search far and wide to find an organization that will employ you now."
Truer words were never spoken. Happy National Pig Day, everyone but this sh*tty person.
