The Daily Blog Open Mic – 7th September 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.

Wayne Brown is funny and entertaining writes the libertarian vulture on the carcass of capitalism.
Such is way of the ghoul of words, who lies so glibly.
Wayne is both intransigent and opinionated.
These are people that those who are neither literate or funny can make fun of, because they make it so easy.
The rest is a long winded lie about our political past to encourage a wrong headed political course.
Inferring if Brown can be re-elected, Luxon should be as well, by also being intransigent and opinionated.
Apparently Grant is not yet a fan of the moderator in chief of the right wing (aka the Seymour-Peters double-cross).

Are you someone who writes copy for radio? They have it all split up for easy sighting and presentation I imagine. But one sentence to a paragraph seems out of place on a blog. Joined up similar thoughts to make up a para seem good. And then one doesn’t have to scroll down to get the whole message. Just saying. I try to be easy to read through my meanderings meant to have impact.
This is nuts
