NY Times ^

Posted on 12/19/2022 2:58:41 AM PST by qwerty1234

Donald Trump Jr. was among hundreds of New York Times readers who slammed the newspaper for their crossword puzzle on Sunday - which many noticed bore an uncanny resemblance to a Nazi swastika. The puzzle's silhouette has caused a stir on social media, with several prominent Jewish leaders and political figures taking to social media to voice their outrage - especially since it was published on the first night of Hanukkah.

No. It was not a coincidence.

No. It was not an easily made mistake.

It was intentional and hate filled. I despise the New York Times. May they all rot in hell.

95% of American Jews won’t see it or believe it. 100% of the leftists won’t either.

It sure is, and that is not by accident either. Most likely the result of the strike.

“95% of American Jews won’t see it or believe it”

and 95% of the orthodox Jews are very conservative and staunch loyal Trump supporters.

We are also the largest growing segment of the Jewish population in the US as the liberal leftist reform Jews dont have children.

Ask anyone in the Lakewood NJ area or Rockland County area how fast the population grows!

No. It was not a coincidence.

The NWO is fundamentally fascist, and so is the deep state security apparatus and their media organs.

We've arrived. Now what?

I can see it now but it didn’t “jump off the page” at me. I’m not sure it was intentional. But if it was, then the NYT missed it. The little description of the puzzle creator says he started in the middle and worked outward. Could that have been responsible for the shape?

It’s even tilted.

If anyone needs a clue today’s socialist are just like the socialists of 100 years ago, here it is.

You know how the NYT always has nonsense about the OK symbol, or PePe the frog being some sort of “dog whistle”. It’s because they leftists do that kind of stupid thing. Then they project. Whatever they are doing, they accuse us of.

>> I’m not sure it was intentional.

Yea right - and I ams sure the references to ‘boxcars’ and the Brandenburg gates was all just another big coincidence.

Many of those clues give the same vibe.

“Literally jumps off the page.”

‘As does 58 across.’

Ugh.

Boxcars. An antisemitic term for rolling sixes? Is that what that is? I’ve never seen ‘boxcars’ as a clue in all my many years of solving puzzles.

It was difficult to detect on line/ on the little phone screen. If I had it on the paper - the hard copy- wow it really jumps off the page.
