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.

You Are Witnessing the Death of American Capitalism
Is musician and talker and so sharp and ironic that I pick him as the person to follow for at least the next day or two if you can discipline yourself so to do! You can hide from others less curious and interested in seeing the size of the vehicle that is about to run over us, by turning to the mute and just reading the subtitling.
What is wrong with the world today? Who or what is responsible for the mess we are in? In the internet someone has found out!
‘Why STUPID People Are a Greater Threat to Society Than Criminals’

Hah. Blame it all on stupid people, not like ourselves or those who are in positions of power, or scrambling up the ladder (pushing lesser people off it to make way). The answer to this conundrum so deleterious to us! Stop blaming ‘stupid’ people and accept we all have a hand in it, and our parents and grandparents. What we need to do is be a bit humble about that, try and understand them and ourselves too, the veins of unhelpful drives and impulses that push us to irrationality. Rethink how things are done and realise that change is unwelcome, it won’t be simple even when explained plainly along with its advantages, unless it makes money or power for someone.
Lift your mind away to an enjoyable scenario in a book where right triumphs over bad, it’s a holiday for the mind and gives some pleasure, and helps to keep the print media going so we don’t lose all our gains from the past to the fleet-footed internet. Try reading Anne Perry’s near to last book set in 1912 and showing what is happening in 2012 – ‘ The Fourth Enemy’ by Anne Perry. Good thought-through story,
legal aspects, how to pin the b….d down and end his nefarious schemes ruinous for ordinary people in society and ultimately a tattered democracy. A bit highly coloured, made into a film would have a good chase scene, but everyday life these days is verging on fact being truer than fiction eh!!
Greyhound racing better up their game for the good of NZAO. Winston supports, we need Winston to find some good from the rubbish tip we citizens face, recycling is acceptable – but something.
So stop this dog treatment, bad for them, bad for animal welfare standards generally here, and bad for the country’s delicate balance of viability. Don’t try and run the legs off them before 2026 FGS.

What about sacking the lot in Wellington, (which isn’t well at all), and getting some other overseas body to run NZAO on basic pay and bonus results decided by us not them, to represent fairly their success?
We could divide NZAO into two entities to be run effectively to suit these two major groupings ie the North Auckland and Auckland city- southern area to south of Hamilton and from Palmerston North to the toe of NZAO. And then go for it being democratic and also insisting on people with the right education in development of business and farming matters, and all citizens can vote once they have passed a scratch test or done a citizenship course. Then see how we are going every two years? Don’t pick on MMP for not solving all our problems as I see every now and then. Those who do can have no understanding of why people put themselves out to fight for it, for very good reason.
