I didn't read it, but not for lack of trying. And I won't create an account to read anything from that rag.

Besides, once they confiscate all of the guns and either kill off or jail anyone that wouldn't willfully comply with confiscation, their official position on the topic will be a moot point.

Too pessimistic?

Open the link in a private window, seems to get around the subscription pop up. (If you still want to read it)

Do you use Firefox or something like it? I so, when you right-click a link it should bring up a menu, with "Open in Private Window" one of the options.

Same BS paywall, even in a private tab.

Yeah but they're so evil we need to kill them again.

Weird; I'm not being hit with a pay wall. (And no, I'm not subscribed to the New York Times. I'd sooner flush a wad of cash down the toilet.)

Or you can add the NYT to your /etc/hosts file and then every time you accidentally click on an NYT link, your computer will fail to connect. You'll never have to worry about giving that fishwrap clicks again:

How to Edit Your Hosts File on Windows, Mac, or Linux

Occasionally you may need to edit the hosts file on your machine. Your host file might have been edited maliciously in an attack, or as a prank. Alternatively, you may just want to control access to certain websites or control network traffic.

EDIT: This is what I see when I click. On purpose and by design ;-)

Yup, Firefox.

That worked... Thx!!
