The Daily Blog Open Mic – 18th February 2025
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.
Do you think we need something like this here?

If the media want a human interest story involving children and parents who aren’t managing within the tight little cordon that is NZ society, then they can invite stories of ex boot camp adults who talk about their past in the training camp. And also Lake Alice attendees how they were treated, and seek the success stories of those who have risen above and done good for themselves their family and society. Wonderful, informative stories – we would love them. Keep them coming one new one every week. You won’t run out media peeps – before Kiwiland suffers overall disasters whereby we can’t lift our heads from problems.

There should be a year 70 bar for politicians. As an older person myself these men mostly, are giving all old people either a bad name or giving the oldies the idea that they can do anything and not be questioned.
We should know better and need to make room for younger people to make mistakes. Who agrees with this – speak up if you want to stop the monkey-gland purveyors or zimmer-frame? supported taking over.
