If it's based in Mastodon then it's he wrong to say it's the exact opposite of Mastodon, no?

That's like saying a Lemmy app is the opposite of another Lemmy app, if one app defaulted to Lemmygrad and the other to Exploding Heads.

They meant in other contexts. As in, the latter is a decent platform full of ways to find educated, diverse commentary. The former is an echo chamber filled with rancid, hate-filled bullshit.

Well, more of the antithesis since the kind/stance of the content

But there’s a difference between branding and backend implementation.

If I search for Lemmy.world and I get back hexbear, are you going to say that’s the right result since they are both Lemmy?

It's essentially forked mastodon. There's no federation with it. It's just using the core functionality. Plus Mastodon's development had a goal and vision. TruthSocial is somewhat antithetical to it.
