The Daily Blog Open Mic – 1st June 2023
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.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, 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.

And the brains of Britain wants to sell the airport! Stuff him
The fact that this guy was abused at Lake Alice should get the NZ officials to help him.
“A New Zealand man is begging for help for his father, who is starving to death in Bali prison after being caught up in a drug scam while trying to find love.
Antony de Malmanche may never step foot in his home country again after he was arrested for allegedly smuggling 1.7kg of methamphetamine in his backpack at the international airport in Denpasar, Indonesia, in December 2014.
De Malmanche has also recently revealed he is a survivor of abuse as a former child patient in the notorious Lake Alice Hospital, making him a vulnerable target to a cartel scam.
He maintains his not-guilty plea, claiming that he was set up by a sophisticated criminal organisation that he believed to be an online lover.”

By all means help this man. I have friends who are icommunicating with unknowns through the internet and they aren’t silly people. The ability of these personal scams to create false fronts is amazing. The situation has been enabled by government just as Lake Alice was a ‘b….d child’ of the NZ government; so is our dependence on the internet. Be kind gummint and accept the need of the human soul for love, and better, caring government.

Eight years in to a 15-year sentence for alleged drug smuggling in 2014, de Malmanche, his legal team and his children all maintain his innocence, and that he is a victim of a criminal romance scam.
Parole in Bali was denied to Malmanche, as the New Zealand government would have had to make an agreement with the Indonesian authorities.
“We were gutted at the parole decision. We were really hoping he’d be released at this point. Dad is guilty of nothing but being gullible. He does not deserve to die,” said his son, Shaun de Malmanche, speaking from his home in Palmerston North.

This headline lacks respect, is a kick in the rear for our own Head of Society and Royalty. Is this journalist someone living in NZ? Or is it the sub editor who is crass?
Elon Musk says he wants to settle the planet Mars and is prepared to spend $billions on this vanity project.
Elon Musk needs to be sent on a five year mission to Mars.
