True embarrassment to the UK.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 day ago

Time to start live streaming a lettuce again to as the traditional Liz Truss standard for how long her projects last...

[–] briever@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She's a moron, always has been - but who is the money behind her?

[–] TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] superkret@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago

A worthy successor to 4chan.

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 day ago

So it will shut down in a week as well?

[–] helvetpuli@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 day ago

Her parents are so disappointed.

[–] zipzoopaboop@lemmynsfw.com 8 points 1 day ago

You mean colossal failure Liz truss who couldn't outlast a head of lettuce?

"Lettuce Speak Freely"

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

Aren't there enough right wing echo bunkers at this point?

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.

[–] CrowyTech@feddit.uk 6 points 1 day ago

I think I'll join the platform that the lettuce launches, it'll likely last longer

[–] llamatron@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago

Jesus, this woman is desperate to stretch out her 15 minutes. How sad

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 98 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Is she going for the record for shortest-lived social media platform too now?

[–] randompasta@lemmy.today 12 points 2 days ago

Less than on Scaramouche, I bet.

Every "free speech" platform is, in reality, a "speech I like" platform.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 34 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Every “free speech” platform is, in reality, a hate speech platform.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 3 points 1 day ago

Even more a 'i want to say hateful stuff and not be held accountable for my own stupidity' platform.

So...we will all be making accounts to post photos of our lettuces?

[–] Roundeyegweilo@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

It wasn't bad enough she crashed the UK's economy? Damn son, crack on with your dumb ass.

[–] Wimster@lemmy.wtf 9 points 1 day ago

There we go again. Another Trump bitch trying to please the orange morron. Maybe she can share a bed with Nigel Farage.

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 64 points 2 days ago

You'll need to make new account every 49 days

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lemme guess, they're gonna launch a private Mastodon server.

[–] TemplaerDude@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Oh good, yet another shitty twitter clone.

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

She even talks like a Trump. Is it contagious?

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

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.

Mind virus.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Hey, I've seen this one before.

[–] FriendBesto@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So, do you guys think that her social media platform will last longer or less than a piece of lettuce?

[–] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A lettuce probably has more leaves than her platform will have users.

I sincerely hope this is the last time I read about Liz Truss and she just disappears into the sands of history.

Nah, she’s gonna get mentioned everytime the shortest PMship did the worst damage ever…ratio’d of course.

[–] g0ndii@feddit.org 30 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Hasn‘t she embarrassed herself enough by now?

Good. Spread the fascists out on too many shitty platforms for them to organize well.

Another disinformation paradise. Go for it.

[–] hector@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago

Another badly executed neoliberal neocon shithole predicated on open-source tech and standards yay!

[–] BarrierWithAshes@fedia.io 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fully expecting this to be like Truth Social, based off fediverse software with no attribution and no federation.
