Now this is a headline whose grammar I take issue with
Reads like “the truth (which humiliated Putin) wants to hide”
It should be
The Uncensored Truth That Putin, Humiliated, Wants to Hide
The title is a garden path sentence!
Woah, I learned something new today.
You’re exactly right! Now I’m kicking myself for the term escaping me in the moment. :)
OR maybe: the uncensored truth a humiliated Putin wants to hide.
The other comment explains it perfectly. It wasn’t super difficult to decipher, but it is a bit confusing
I wasn’t confused by it; I just think it could be further improved.
I read it as ‘humiliated, Putin’ like it’s his title.
Ivan the Terrible.
Putin the Humiliated.
Also, just for the fuck of it, here’s this image!
I think “Humiliated” makes for a very apt honorific in the case of the fascist authoritarian.
Humiliated Putin is who he is indeed.
