  4. Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 11:19 am

    And just when you think the media cannot get any more disgusting, along comes none other than the NYT defending antifa. And even their own readers are not buying it.

    NYT defends violent thugs

    • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:24 am

      I doubt their readers are more upset about this than the Times hiring Bret Stephens. He’s a denier, don’t you know.

    • AlmightyJB on August 28, 2017 at 11:30 am

      The NYT loves its commie thugs.

      • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:36 am

        https://twitter.com/HashtagGriswold/status/902190602422509568

        Antifa isn’t anti-free speech, because they’ve never attacked any Democratic Party event.

        • AlmightyJB on August 28, 2017 at 12:01 pm

          So like the Old Testament where the moral code only applies within the tribe.

        • WTF on August 28, 2017 at 12:09 pm

          Oh, well, so long as they are only attacking speech they disagree with, then that’s not anti-free speech at all!
          Shocking to realize that there are people who actually think that makes sense.

        • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:11 pm

          The first comment with the photo is epic.

        • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:25 pm

          Seems to me they just explicitly confined political violence in that statement.

          • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:26 pm

            Condoned

    • Stinky Wizzleteats on August 28, 2017 at 11:37 am

      From the comments, which seem to be running three to one in favor of Antifa violence, they are buying it.

      • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 11:38 am

        That was a quick change then, because when I was reading the comments, it was just the opposite.

        • Stinky Wizzleteats on August 28, 2017 at 11:40 am

          Maybe I didn’t dive in deep enough-read the first 20 or so.

          • Vhyrus on August 28, 2017 at 11:51 am

            You have to click the ‘readers pick’ tab at the top or you just get every retard’s comment. The reader picks are the upvoted ones.

          • Stinky Wizzleteats on August 28, 2017 at 11:56 am

            Huh, that was actually kind of encouraging.

          • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:03 pm

            I think some of the more sane on the left are starting to get very worried about being associated with antifa.

          • AlmightyJB on August 28, 2017 at 12:17 pm

            They might be worried about how many yutes they worked so hard to brainwash throughout their education are getting red pilled by this shit

    • Akira on August 28, 2017 at 11:41 am

      In antifa circles, the theme of hypermasculine bravado is often right out front, and unsurprisingly, a large majority of the antifa camp are men. Muscularity is prized.

      >antifa
      >masculine

      HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

      • Akira on August 28, 2017 at 11:41 am

        PS: Antifa is what you get when Pajama Boy puts on a black mask and a backpack full of urine bottles.

          • BakedPenguin on August 28, 2017 at 1:38 pm

            If they keep up with the Russia narrative…

          • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 2:17 pm

            I think they’re almost back to it.

      • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 11:47 am

        Funny then how most of the people from the antifa mob just arrested for assault and battery in Berkeley, were in fact, women.

        • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:50 am

          From my experience women are typically more masculine than men on the Left

          • AlmightyJB on August 28, 2017 at 11:58 am

            Wasn’t it the women that stormed the Bastille?

          • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:01 pm

            You’re talking about the Frogs, so they would have thrown up a white flag even if it was only one woman doing some storming.

          • AlmightyJB on August 28, 2017 at 12:19 pm

            It was the March on Vesialles 3 months later I was thinking of.

            https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_March_on_Versailles

          • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 12:52 pm

            Yeah and the Swiss Guard (not the Frenchies) were the ones that were defeated by a bunch of women.

            What pansies the Swiss are.

          • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:55 pm

            *listens for incoming catbutt*

          • Swiss Servator on August 28, 2017 at 1:05 pm

            Swiss Guard belongs to the Pope….those mercenaries were under French command.

          • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 1:07 pm

            I thought the Swiss Guard was just a regiment of mercenaries provided by the Swiss that many nobles employed. The Pope being the last noble to employ them

          • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 1:14 pm

            I must say, I skirted dangerously close to a cat butt on that one. Swiss must be in a good mood

          • Swiss Servator on August 28, 2017 at 2:10 pm

            You’re a funny guy Just Say’n, I like you. That’s why I’m going to catbutt you last.

      • RBS on August 28, 2017 at 11:47 am

        Muscularity is prized.

        Not from what I have seen.

        • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:03 pm

          It’s only prized in the women, who are the ones out front doing the fighting.

      • J. Frank Parnell on August 28, 2017 at 12:20 pm

        large majority of the antifa camp are men

        OMG did they just assume the gender of a large majority of the antifa camp? I’m so triggered right now I can’t even.

        • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:27 pm

          Well, it is hard to tell the women from the men, so I’ll cut them some slack there.

        • BakedPenguin on August 28, 2017 at 12:35 pm

          Great avatar. Repo Man was an incredible movie.

          Put it on a plate, son, you’ll enjoy it more.”

          • Chipwooder on August 28, 2017 at 1:32 pm

            You know, for the longest time I thought the generic products (particularly the can of “food” Otto eats in that scene) in Repo Man was a hilarious bit of satire. Then I found out the sad truth: Alex Cox was holding out for better product placement money, no one was interested, so their safety net was using Ralph’s supermarket generic products.

          • BakedPenguin on August 28, 2017 at 1:43 pm

            It definitely adds to the surreal atmosphere of the movie. I think they may have recognized this and re-labeled some products, because I’m old enough to remember generics, and I don’t remember any cans with just “Food” or “Drink” on them. I could be wrong.

          • Chipwooder on August 28, 2017 at 2:33 pm

            Probably – I’m pretty sure you’re right that there was never a generic can labeled “food”.

            My favorite little tidbit – if you look closely, when the repo men go to the supermarket manager’s house and beat him up (after Otto lies and says he’s the one who beat up Otto), Otto’s dorky former co-worker Kevin in is the house.

          • C. Anacreon on August 28, 2017 at 2:56 pm

            Otto Parts?

      • John Titor on August 28, 2017 at 12:21 pm

        Hey now, what the NYT considers ‘hypermasculine’ is very different from the layman.

        “Oh my god, you keep the chicken in your chicken salad?”

    • WTF on August 28, 2017 at 12:06 pm

      The times uses the bullshit stats from the ADL to claim 74 percent of violence/murders over the past decade are right-wing. However, the ADL admits that “ADL’s death count includes non-ideological murders committed by extremists, i.e. gang violence or other criminal activity that does not have a political or racial motive.” So, basically anything without a clear ideological or racial motive gets labeled as right wing.

      • R C Dean on August 28, 2017 at 12:10 pm

        I saw that. The overlap between “criminal gang” and “white supremacist” makes that study completely useless. To even the scales, they would need to count all the murders committed by other criminal gangs with overtly racialist branding, which includes a fair number of the black gangs from what I understand. Gangs need an internal ideology to help bind their members together, and a racialist one is easy and effective.

        • Fatty Bolger on August 28, 2017 at 12:44 pm

          Black people gangs can’t be racist.

    • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:17 pm

      The left’s implicit approval of the commie thugs will be everyone’s undoing. The “white supremacists” are practically nonexistent and have been blown into an oversized threat so that the violence on the left can be excused.

      This can only lead to more violence in response and civil unrest

      They’re fools if they think they can control it and benefit from this.

  5. Zunalter on August 28, 2017 at 11:23 am

    RDA may be moonlighting as a writer. This person puts the Huff in HuffPo.

    If they are so secret, how do you know they exist?

    However, operating independently from both the Democrats and the Republicans, a tiny but prodigiously powerful Dark Money party stepped in. Dark Money, itself problematic, is the secret political expenditure of global corporations, multi-millionaires and billionaires. Vastly more than just “big donors,” Dark Money parties are hidden groups with agendas, staff, ideologies, candidates, fundraisers, prodigious bankrolls and strategies of voter outreach, which demonstrably have ridden in over the will of the U.S. people.

    So, if two groups stand for the opposite positions on an issue, how can neither of them represent the people?

    This particular Dark Money party however is protectionist. Republicans are globalists. The Trump Administration and the Republicans controlling Congress therefore do not coordinate well. They’re from two different political parties, with opposed goals. Neither sides with the people.

    On the whole, the only thing I hope that’s true is that Progressives split off from Dems and go 3rd party.

    • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:24 pm

      Isn’t Dark Money inherently a racist term?

      • Zunalter on August 28, 2017 at 12:26 pm

        I think you are thinking of “Black Friday“

    • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:36 pm

      “On the whole, the only thing I hope that’s true is that Progressives split off from Dems and go 3rd party.”

      That would be great, but I doubt it. What I see is the progs pulling the Democrats even further left. Perez is a far left loon. 3 of what appear to be their biggest leaders now, are far leftists, Warren, Bernie, and Kamala Harris. Who among the ancient ones in the party like Pelosi, Biden, or Waters is going to pull them back to the center? They have basically no rational voices with the power to pull them back from the cliff. They’re a very small step away from being the socialist party of the USA. I mean really, for all intents and purposes, they already are, they just need one final push.

      • Vhyrus on August 28, 2017 at 12:41 pm

        I don’t see Pelosi or Waters as being centrist in any sense. Biden maybe.

        • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:51 pm

          Pelosi and Waters are just plain old corrupt. They’ll say exactly what they think they need to in any given situation.

          • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 1:29 pm

            You can easily fit Biden into that same pile of shit.

          • C. Anacreon on August 28, 2017 at 3:03 pm

            Biden’s desperately trying to be accepted by the outraged Left. Yesterday he published an op-ed saying that Trump had said that neo-nazis and peaceful protesters are ‘moral equivalents’. Of course Trump never did any such thing, but it must be the truth now that Uncle Joe has stated it.

    • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:33 am

      What made Gorka and Bannon Nazis? I still don’t get this one. I asked a couple of people, including a friend of mine in the Libertarian Party (which, at this point, should just be called the ‘Virtue Signaling Party’ as it really doesn’t have anything to do with individual liberty anymore), and he just said that it’s true if you read the news reports. What does that mean?

      • Slammer on August 28, 2017 at 11:36 am

        “Bannon and Gorka are Nazis”

        “Ok, why do you say that?”

        “Because they are”

        “Ok, whay have the said or done for you to think that?”

        “You know, Nazi stuff”

        “Ok, like what?”

        “Stuff that Nazis do”

        • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:37 am

          That’s pretty much the only response that I’ve gotten. Which has made me think that any non-interventionists in this administration have been smeared as being ‘Nazis’ to preserve perpetual war.

          *puts on tin foil hat*

      • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 11:37 am

        By news reports is he talking about CNN? Then we’re all Nazis I guess. Unless we are goose stepping around in a Che t-shirt, proudly carrying a copy of the communist manifesto, and virtue signaling about statues of dead white guys.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats on August 28, 2017 at 11:39 am

        Defending confirmed Nazis JS? Shameful.

        • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 11:41 am

          I am a Nazi apologist, obviously.

      • Roger Wilco on August 28, 2017 at 11:53 am

        Seriously, with all the tripping over each other to reject and condemn Nazism, there doesn’t seem to be a good definition of what is being rejected and condemned. Is it the 1930s political party? Is it anti-semitism? Is it racism? Is it white supremacy? All these are fine things to spill ink and generate hot air to repudiate, but when you just use “Nazis” it makes me think you just don’t like the villains in the Indiana Jones films. This is the problem with labels: with no strict definition it will gradually grow to encompass everything and mean nothing

        • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 12:00 pm

          You know, it would probably be surprising that they chose to go with Nazis as the great boogeyman, when there are actually how many self proclaimed Nazis in the country? Maybe a few hundred? But then again, they chose Russians as the great boogeyman who caused Hillary to lose, so their desperation really doesn’t surprise anymore. And now they’ve adopted a rag tag band of commies and anarchists as their heroes. The Democrats are digging a really deep hole for themselves.

      • JaimeRoberto on August 28, 2017 at 12:09 pm

        Bannon said Breitbart was a platform for the Alt-Right, and the Alt-Right are Nazis or something. Of course Bannon’s statement came at a time when there really was no definition of Alt-Right (as far as I know). The media and the Dems have done a good job for their purposes as defining Alt-Right as Nazis. We all laughed at the anti-Pepe post on Hillary’s website last year, but it seems to have gone a long way to define the Alt-Right as Nazis for the press, so mission accomplished.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 12:21 pm

      Talk about how much you love diversity and how that’s why you want to work there, because you want more opportunity to work in a diverse and multicultural environment. It works every fucking time. The HR ‘toad’ will be half asleep until you say that, then they’ll perk right up. And after they’ll be convinced you are the right person for the job.

      Ah, the diplomatic euphemism. You have come to the right place, my friend. Do not be negative on your current/former employer – it signals that you will be negative on your new employer.

      Assuming the new company is still in the healthcare field, I would say “I like being part of healthcare, the mission of helping people who come to us for help is important to me. I’d like to find a company that empowers its staff, that has a culture of safety for patients and for employees and a real team-based approach to taking care of people.”

            Cisco is pushing it. Basically it is an IoT buzzword that means you are pushing some of the smarts out of the cloud into the edge devices.

            So instead of reporting all of Winston’s actions, you create a solution that has a smart camera that will only upload to the cloud Winston’s failures during the 2 minutes of hate. Far more efficient to distribute processing to the edge in most cases.

    What Went Wrong

    From the fall of communism only thirty years ago, the acceptability of Marxism has made a remarkable resurgence. The news media, prominent politicians and academia all give Marxist thugs carte blanche to attack, not just “Nazis”, but libertarians, free speech activists and mainstream conservatives. How did this happen? How did adherents of an ideology with a death toll of 100 million people, 5X that of the Nazis, thugs who will beat people in the streets for expressing the worn opinion or virtual mobs to destroy people’s careers, become acceptable company in polite society?

    The fault, I’d suggest, lies not in our stars, but in ourselves. The fall of communism was a giddy time. Western liberalism had been proved superior. The monstrosity of communism had been revealed, but revealed in defeat. It was, many believed, the End of History. Surely, men and women of goodwill believed with the facts so utterly obvious, the fight was over. No one would ever champion that garbage again. And so, graciousness in victory became the order of the day. The thousands of academics, media figures and cultural figures who had championed this monstrosity for decades were given a pass. They were excused with platitudes about “But, socialism” or “I didn’t know” or “good intentions”. Or worse, they were allowed to pretend the whole thing never happened. And, so, truth was cheated in the name of goodwill.

    And years passed. People forgot history. Or never actually learned it. No need to spike the ball toward that professor down the hall, after all. The Marxists who never had to answer for their positions, who never had to acknowledge their support of evil, were allowed to see their careers continue to advance. They were permitted to remain in polite company. And the folks who still wanted to fight old wars with them began to seem a boor. Who wanted, after all, to be the new Joseph McCarthy? And why were those vets worrying about an over-the-hill actress who put out an exercise video twenty years ago. And as people forgot, it became okay to push the old agenda. You didn’t want to be one of those kooks fighting twenty-year old battles, after all? And these folks all clearly have such good intentions? And so we get to where we are today.

    The truth is that so many of these people should have been forced to confront the evil which they supported. They should have been forced to come to terms with it. The lobby of the Times building should have a giant statue of Walter Duranty with an explanation of how the Times helped cover up mass murder. The Academy Awards should have had a memorial to the role Hollywood communists actually played in ruining other people’s lives. Noam Chomsky should be identified as “noted linguist and Khmer Rouge cheerleader”. If our culture had gone through this, maybe today communists would be held in as much disgust and contempt as Nazis rightfully are.

            Sheldon Richman blames the annexation of Crimea on the United States and takes everything Iran says at face value while portraying America as the aggressor. He’s never seen a tinpot foreign autocracy that he won’t qualify, excuse or lick the boots of in order to complain about his own government. This is the piece of shit who whines about nationalism in general and but believes Palestinian nationalism is good.

          • Just Say'n on August 28, 2017 at 1:29 pm

            That’s not an entirely fair description. The US and its western allies did foment the ouster of the Ukranian president. There are many non-interventionists that may not like the Iran deal, but think it is better than the alternative.

          • John Titor on August 28, 2017 at 1:34 pm

            Richman will take any comment by a foreign power that supports his ‘blame America’ narrative entirely seriously and handwave or ignore any evidence to the contrary. A ‘libertarian’ is blindly accepting the propaganda of autocracies is disgusting.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder on August 28, 2017 at 1:07 pm

        Chomsky was guilty of ignoring all the warning signs and going a massive benefit of the doubt to the Khmer Rouge. He ultimately had to backtrack on his defense of them (almost twenty years later).

        He then proceeded to do the exact same thing with Venezuela. He’s truly a useful idiot when it comes to those who give lip service to his pet political philosophies.

Academia is 100% controlled by the left, as is the mainstream media. And yet they still cannot sell their bullshit to everyone, so now they resort to sending thugs into the streets to attack people.

        I remember in my high school history class I was the only one out of 25 kids who knew of Lenin, Stalin and Mao. The teacher asked about it before a brief overview of their murder-a-thon. All things considered I think my school did a better than average at not propagandizing the curriculum. I even had a world literature teacher recommended Ayn Rand to me based on some of what I wrote.

        • Ted S. on August 28, 2017 at 2:44 pm

          A remember in my AP European History class (1989/90) mentioning the Ukrainian famine that Stalin ordered and everybody (well, except the teacher) looking at me like I was nuts. Imagine when we got to that portion of history….

    No need to spike the ball toward that professor down the hall, after all. The Marxists who never had to answer for their positions, who never had to acknowledge their support of evil, were allowed to see their careers continue to advance.

    This is an excellent point, which cannot be overstated.

    If a physics professor at a prestigious university aligned himself with the promoters of a Perpetual Motion Machine which was proven to run on concealed batteries, he’d be lynched by his colleagues. He’d be lucky to get hired by a public library. But a “historian” who waves away the vast murderous abomination which is Communism by saying, “Oh, they just needed to iron out a few wrinkles and everything would have been fine,” gets tenure.

    • John Titor on August 28, 2017 at 1:44 pm

      Marxists have the advantage of communism being antithetical to both human nature and basic economic reality. Therefore, because it always fails, they can always qualify it by saying it wasn’t ‘real communism’. They can chase that utopia and stack as many bodies as they like and they never have to be held accountable, because they’ll never achieve anything close to what they think they can.

      • Naptown Bill on August 28, 2017 at 2:14 pm

        It drives me nuts when I hear the “wasn’t real communism” excuse. Sorry, pal, you’ve got countries that describe themselves as Communist run solely by Communist political parties, and even then you can’t get it right? If the Reds think they’ve got it rough, they should try being libertarians.

        • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 2:23 pm

          I loved the decade long period where they all just collectively screeched ‘You don’t even know what socialism is!’. WTF?

          Sorry, pal, you’ve got countries that describe themselves as Communist run solely by Communist political parties, and even then you can’t get it right?

          Add to that the fact that the same bastards telling you now how “that wasn’t real communism” were screeching the obvious superiority of communism practiced in just that country right up until the moment it crashed.

          • Hyperion on August 28, 2017 at 3:08 pm

            Where’d all those guys go who just a couple of years ago were praising the great success of socialism in Venezuela? Where are the ones claiming that Cuba has the best healthcare system in the world and that they cured cancer? It’s funny how the cockroaches scurry when someone turns the light on.

          • wdalasio on August 28, 2017 at 3:54 pm

            This exactly. But, it isn’t too hard to find the guys who were saying these things. Most of them are still in the public eye. Nobody seems to really want to. It isn’t so much the cockroaches scurrying when the light is turned on, as it is people refusing to actually turn the light on.

    Y u no Ottawa? So many suckups in one place! Otherwise, I give this the “headline that makes most sense” award for today:

    Hillary Clinton book tour stopping in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver

    Her publisher Simon and Schuster says the book is Clinton’s “most personal memoir yet” with revelations including her thoughts and feelings during last year’s failed U.S. presidential bid.

    The 15-city speaking tour is being billed as a “detailed and surprisingly funny” look at her journey, the process of writing the book and her plans for the future.

    Clinton is scheduled to visit Toronto, the second stop on her tour, on Sept. 28 at the Enercare Centre.

    She is booked for the Palais des Congres de Montreal on Oct. 23 and the Vancouver Convention Centre on Dec. 13.

    • John Titor on August 28, 2017 at 1:51 pm

      Now, I can see an Obama memoir getting a lot of pull in Canadian proggy cities, but Hillary? Really? I’d be surprised if she pulls more people than an average Larry Correia book signing.

      • Pan Zagloba on August 28, 2017 at 2:03 pm

        There are a lot of white, college-educated women in all those cities. I think she’ll fill the venues nicely. Obama would fill stadiums.

      The 15-city speaking tour is being billed as a “detailed and surprisingly funny” look at her journey, the process of writing the book and her plans for the future.

      Yeah, I’d be surprised if there was anything funny that came from Hillary Clinton. Annoying, abrasive, screechy, yeah, funny? No.

        Well, they didn’t say “intentionally” funny.

        And I would not be surprised if Hillary goes into great detail about the faults and shortcomings of the people who failed her, including not only her own staff but the American people.

          Shattered seems to clearly indicate that is the case. Clinton’s an arrogant, generally unlikable person incapable of self-reflection, who knew?

    New French president continues proud French tradition of wasting money:

    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/25/world/europe/france-president-macron-makeup-expenses.html?mcubz=0
    ***
    Maintaining his boyish good looks does not come cheap for President Emmanuel Macron. Since he became France’s youngest modern president in May, his office has spent 26,000 euros, or $31,000, for a makeup artist to be at the ready for his public appearances.
    ***

    The last president, a balding socialist, spent $10,000 a month on haircuts.

    The Aristocrats!

    • Chipwooder on August 28, 2017 at 2:35 pm

    I saw some graffiti in Monterey yesterday. Someone wrote KILL NAZIS on one building and FUCK RACIST [sic] on another.

    I don’t think it was anyone from the Naval Post Graduate School. They are too busy with their How To Avoid Huge Ships class.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Avoid_Huge_Ships

    ***
    How to Avoid Huge Ships is a 1982 book by Captain John W. Trimmer, a Master Mariner and Seattle harbor pilot. The first edition was self-published from Trimmer’s home in Seattle, and carried the subtitle Or: I Never Met a Ship I Liked. It is a maritime operations guidance book, but also attracted some attention due to its title, which some found to be unusual, incongruous, and humorous.

    Intended for a specialized audience (the captains or operators of small private boats, such as yachts and trawlers), the book gives advice on appropriate avoidance actions when confronted by the near presence of a large ship such as a freighter, along with anecdotes and background information such as the capabilities and operating procedures of the large ships.

      We had some graffiti on Mt. Lemmon this weekend, too.

      The bulk of the graffiti is inside the men’s and women’s restrooms, covering the stalls, doors, and walls. Inside each bathroom, it says, “kill all whites, kill cops, BLM,” among other explicit statements.

      On the exterior of the building, there are multiple Swastikas with lines crossing through them, also, the word, “white,” with lines crossing it out.

      On the ground a message saying, “Islam is Boom,” and a profane statement involving President Trump.

    Is Trump responsible for violent rallies? Law says probably not
    By Stephen Gottlieb, opinion contributor
    http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/the-administration/348300-the-law-cant-touch-trump-when-it-comes-to-violent

    It’s dumb, particularly the part where he misuses the term “double entendre”.

    Speaking of which, some 10th century monk decided to make a collection of such things:

    ***
    Some of the earliest double entendres are found in the Exeter Book, or Codex exoniensis, at Exeter Cathedral in England. The book was copied around 975 AD. In addition to the various poems and stories found in the book, there are also numerous riddles. The Anglo-Saxons did not reveal the answers to the riddles, but they have been answered by scholars over the years. Some riddles were double-entendres, such as Riddle 25 (“I am a wondrous creature: to women a thing of joyful expectation, to close-lying companions serviceable. I harm no city-dweller excepting my slayer alone. My stem is erect and tall––I stand up in bed––and whiskery somewhere down below. Sometimes a countryman’s quite comely daughter will venture, bumptious girl, to get a grip on me. She assaults my red self and seizes my head and clenches me in a cramped place. She will soon feel the effect of her encounter with me, this curl-locked woman who squeezes me. Her eye will be wet.”) which suggests the answer “a penis” but has the correct answer “an onion”.
    ***

    • R C Dean on August 28, 2017 at 3:19 pm

      From the TDS article:

      More recently, he equated the violence of white supremacists with counter-demonstrators, whose efforts are to keep neo-Nazis in check.

      At that point in the first paragraph, I quit reading.
