I hope you are certain that is what you want.

db().select(*[f for f in db['test_activity'] if not f.name in
fieldsBlackList])

will get the field names from test_activity and not from table1 as per
your initial post, but table1 might have only a subset of the fields,
so the resulting list after the blacklist filter is applied can be
different.
