Any politician launching their own media network is a reprehensible piece of shit.
Prove me wrong.

Counterpoint?
Obviously I don’t have any examples here. I’m sorry if I got anyone’s hope’s up I hope this was a brief, fun, moment of mystery for a few of us.

So any of the users will be able to freely tell her to kill herself?
hairyfeet@lemmy.ml 20 hours ago
Think she has a bigger issue with being told she crashed the economy, after she crashed the economy.

But it sounds like she want to lettuce say whatever we want!

I felt like I was reading the onion where the real punchline is at the end. “Announced at a cryptocurrency conference” lmao

Would be great to put that to the test by spamming it with gay Marxist furry trans atheist content

That actually sounds like a good idea. Can you post images? Might start a twink of the week poll.

Can we flood it with Rule 34 lettuce posts?

Sounds like a plan.

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
Not even the vegetables are that dumb.

Hopefully the Morris dancers did a display at the opening speech.

Everyone gonna call it lettuce

They could capitalize on that, and call it “Let us social!”
That would give it a friendly name and make her more approachable, which is why it won’t happen.

Anyone else remember the short-lived Matt Hancock app? What is it with Tories and shitty vanity projects.

Maybe it’s an embezzlement wheeze and they can claim expenses money and have the sole exployee be a vibe coder family member?

They’re easily taken-in by some grifter selling them their software platform. It’s the same as all the famous people selling their own cryptocoin that turns out to be a rug-pull - someone approached them and dazzled them with buzzwords and jargon, and all they saw was dollar signs.

Is it so she can say repugnant things about minorities and spread conspiracy theories about matters of public health, or is she actually concerned about Turkey’s ability to influence bsky into denying access to individuals for political reasons?
I’m going to go out on a limb and assume she didn’t even mention Turkey in her ‘talk’.

Desperate to somehow stay relevant. Shunned by Trump at his inauguration, despised by most of her party and the laughing stock of the opposition.
