 The problem was that my copy of OSX 10.11.6 somehow got corrupted, and the
 way it was corrupted prevented tabs from communicating in TorBrowser 8.0
 and above, even with all cookies accepted. I could still comment in
 TorBrowser 7.5, because tabs communicate in a different way.

 After deleting TorBrower from Applications and reinstalling several times,
 I still could not comment.

 So I tried re-installing OSX, and now the tabs can communicate and I can
 comment in Disqus.

 I have no idea what actually got corrupted, the only solution was to re-
 install OSX.
