Crossword Fiend statement of policy: If you’re just here to comment on the evils of “wokeness” and feminism and whatnot, do not be surprised if your comments are deleted. You’re a distraction. This is a site that (1) is about crosswords and (2) supports equality and justice for women, people of color, LGBTQIA people, religious minorities, people with disabilities, and other marginalized groups.
