The Daily Blog Open Mic – 17th May 2024
Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.
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.

Uh oh the Warehouse having troubles continuing as a good NZ store? Of course it has to shape up to the competition from overseas, we know we have been paying far too much for things here, and with limited variety and choice.
Yeah but. What if we don’t have any businesses here employing people, who get enough left over from their wages to spend after the necessities, and are never able to get to the shops anyway.
Ummm.
Well we will do everything over the internet.
But what if you haven’t got the money to keep your computer or smartphone going?
Oh stop this – you are so negative all the time. Get with the new modern system you old fuddy-duddy.
