And it's up and running, and the front looks indistinguishable from any right wing news site: articles about BLM ready for a murder campaign, the welfare state weakening America, the gay agenda threatening children, anti vaccine, Biden is a pervert and a threat to children, anti gun laws threatening the American way of life etc etc
Tldr: Frank's front page is a dumpster fire. |

For those who won't click, here are a couple of headlines to give you the flavor of crazy:
It's nice to see Ms. Carone still out there in the news. |

I tried several times to sign up using burner cell# and email address, and frank speech dot com keeps giving me a "file not found" error. Maybe the K-Pop fans are flooding the zone.

He managed to surprise me with how far away from a social media site it turned out to be. I knew it wasn't going to qualify, but this is exceptional.

Just went to that site, and it "registered" me without any phone number or anything. So it said...
Jumpin' Jehosephat, what a ******* disaster that site is! Apart from the slew of inane, insane headlines from the cream of the conspiracy theorists, it's got to be the worst curated site I have ever seen. Ever. Even Timecube guy could spell better than this lot. And the grammar...seriously, how old are these writers? Who checks their copy? One article there on the origins of "the republic": basic grammar and spelling errors, and no coherent thread of logic that I could discern. It is SO badly written that it looks for all the world like some desperate last-minute effort by a junior high school student struggling with English to get an essay in on time by copying chunks of stuff they found on Google. Then adding a random picture from an image search. That, or it is straight out of Google Translate from the Russian... |

Frank can't create accounts at the moment, just allow logins. I guess so many people are trying to login and create accounts it's just messing with the site.

Does anyone think that the MyPillow guy likes like Wormtongue from the Bakshi Lord of the Rings movie?

A speech bubble does look like a Q, it's true. But with a guy as clueless as this one it's entirely possible it's unintentional.

If it WAS a "Q" then the site would be "Qrank". Appropriate.
