The Daily Blog Open Mic – 24th July 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.

How can humans interact and take each other seriously when finding the other. or oneself, is having affectionate responses with an algorithm with eyelashes. And holding a bright conversation with someone who looks compos mentis (Latin around since Ben Jonson used it about 1631). When the other person says “My avatar thinks that … – does that force you to avatar level? We need people who can hold onto and use their brains. Artificial scenarios which are hypothetical anyway, just send us further into a pliable mindset.
