"Lettuce Speak".
"Lettuce Speak Freely"
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.
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.
Same same.
Hasn‘t she embarrassed herself about by now?
Haven't you heard? She isn't the type to give up.
Another disinformation paradise. Go for it.
Feel like I've seen this one before
Fully expecting this to be like Truth Social, based off fediverse software with no attribution and no federation.
Truss Social?
Another badly executed neoliberal neocon shithole predicated on open-source tech and standards yay!
Truss Social?
Good. Spread the fascists out on too many shitty platforms for them to organize well.
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!
True embarrassment to the UK.
A worthy successor to 4chan.
Just like every other supposed "free speech" platform, eh? How'd that all work out?
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.
Why I ask ?
Money
Stupid cunt.
Time to start live streaming a lettuce again to as the traditional Liz Truss standard for how long her projects last...

You mean colossal failure Liz truss who couldn't outlast a head of lettuce?
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.
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
Didn't that Trump style behavior convince you guys to leave the EU?
Yes but if you bring up that fact, they can’t act self righteous
So it will shut down in a week as well?
Lemme guess, they're gonna launch a private Mastodon server.
Jesus, this woman is desperate to stretch out her 15 minutes. How sad
It wasn't bad enough she crashed the UK's economy? Damn son, crack on with your dumb ass.
Aren't there enough right wing echo bunkers at this point?
Last I checked the UK has no guarantees of free speech.
They do for the freedom of expression, as do most EU countries:
Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This Article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises.
The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary.
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.
