The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog, 3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.
All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.
Just as an aside, while I remember.
In these time of media austerity where everyone is begging for donations to stay afloat –
Can someone explain to me (especially living on superannuation) why I should donate to Stuff. Under the new CEO, unnecessary re-branding/re-imaging of an adequate web-site that turned into something with a few bugs was more important than the well being of journalists struggling.
In the past couple of days, the worst bug appears to have been fixed.
The aesthetics of the site are still shite though. You have to wonder whether Sinead Boucher is having second thoughts over the CEO’s appointment. And if not – why not.

Key word “Entitled”.
Yesterday’s comment about who blocks me on Twitter. To add to it, Kasparov and Browder, the great talkers for the supreme idealistic cause of Ukraine, who can’t connect it to the massively vital idealistic cause of the Gazans. These 2 Jews undermine the re-vitalisation of vital Western morality started by the Ukraine war.
The USA led the way with ‘extraordinary rendition’ (as opposed to ordinary rendition!).

Good news from Britain, where George Galloway has triumphed in a byelection against the extreme neoliberal opponents of workers rights and supporters of the zionist genocide of the Palestinian people who have occupied the entirety of both the UK Conservative and ‘Labour’ parties since the enemy connived to expel Jeremy Corbyn and everyone else with a conscience from UK Labour.
Galloway has been hated by the power elites in the UK ever since he opposed the illegal invasion of Iraq ordered by Netanyahu in 2003.
