We both know that this kind of nuanced take isn’t was Truss is aiming for, though. Otherwise she wouldn’t use the “free speech” canard.

I remember Lizz Truss. For a short time I could winge about the conservative party to cab drivers without any fear that they would agree with them.
One of the good things about the UK is Trump style behaviour does not work here for long. Unfortunately it’s more of an objection to incompetence than bigotry but that’s life

Yes but if you bring up that fact, they can’t act self righteous
Not really, the politicians with a Trumpian style (Johnson and Truss) came after brexit and got there because of the polarisation caused by brexit (and had the example of Trump himself). There was definitely a lot of lying and false claims that were used by the leave campaign in order to get brexit and it shared some similarities with Trump, but it wasnt politics in the the style of being completely divorced from reality and overwhelming incompetance that defines Trump.
But there was a lot of lies that represented legitimate concerns and remain didn’t really do a good enough job of bringing leave along with them. Pleanty of “we got lied too, no on told us”.
No no no no. Remain clearly said the truth and you listened to the lies.
Also fish was fucking weird. Seems like people will die over fish.
But people were told immigration would go down. People have been wanting immigration to go down for 60 years and it’s never happened. First direct vote about immigration going down is obviously going to be a big factor. Didn’t happen though so far right will win soon.
Though notably Boris didn’t get away with everything after the fact. There were penalties for incoherent and inconsistent COVID and his hypocrisy.
Though it does concern me that it’s entirely possible that only happened because A) a conservative wrote a report bashing his parties and B) right wing media groups didn’t defend Boris

There is already a free speech platform called Gab Social, which follows America’s 1st amendment. How could a fool like Liz Truss pretend to care about free speech, when people in her country routinely get the police at their door for posting memes? I’m so sick of free speech being nothing more than a trend or a buzzword used by rich people.

Is she going for the record for shortest-lived social media platform too now?
Less than on Scaramouche, I bet.
Gonna be tough to beat mixer. I think she can pull it off.
Another disinformation paradise. Go for it.
You’ll need to make new account every 49 days
Every “free speech” platform is, in reality, a “speech I like” platform.
Every “free speech” platform is, in reality, a hate speech platform.
That doesn’t really cover it though. I mean look at all the people Musk has banned that have nothing to do with hate speech.
Even more a ‘i want to say hateful stuff and not be held accountable for my own stupidity’ platform.
“Lettuce Speak”.
“Lettuce Speak Freely”
Feel like I’ve seen this one before
Just like every other supposed “free speech” platform, eh? How’d that all work out?
Last I checked the UK has no guarantees of free speech.
They do for the freedom of expression, as do most EU countries:

Truss Social?

Hasn‘t she embarrassed herself enough by now?
Haven’t you heard? She isn’t the type to give up.
Why I ask ?
Money
.
Another badly executed neoliberal neocon shithole predicated on open-source tech and standards yay!
Good. Spread the fascists out on too many shitty platforms for them to organize well.
Stupid cunt.
So, do you guys think that her social media platform will last longer or less than a piece of lettuce?
A lettuce probably has more leaves than her platform will have users.
Hahaha!
Truss Social?
Lettuce social.
sounds like an ad for a hernia strap!

I don’t get why they keep developing separate ones. at some point it has to be quicker to just fork mastodon and defederate from all other instances

She even talks like a Trump. Is it contagious?
Something is, since conservatives appear to be the same organization operating globally now.
But I really think they’re opportunists mostly just dumbly copy catting each other with se exceptions.

4chan?
This clown cannot get over the fact that she’s a complete and utter failure in almost all ways a human being can be. And she’s a despicable slug, too.
She’s a moron, always has been - but who is the money behind her?
I’m sure if you follow the paper trail enough it’ll lead back to either Russia or the Heritage Foundation from the US.
It is yet another grifting disinformation factory.
So…we will all be making accounts to post photos of our lettuces?
For the love of god… don’t.
So it will shut down in a week as well?
I think I’ll join the platform that the lettuce launches, it’ll likely last longer
You mean colossal failure Liz truss who couldn’t outlast a head of lettuce?
Time to start live streaming a lettuce again to as the traditional Liz Truss standard for how long her projects last…
Her parents are so disappointed.
True embarrassment to the UK.
It wasn’t bad enough she crashed the UK’s economy? Damn son, crack on with your dumb ass.
A worthy successor to 4chan.
