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

    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.

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

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

    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.

    Just like every other supposed “free speech” platform, eh? How’d that all work out?
