Many years ago, I read that a conference of psychiatrists somewhere or other had concluded that Donald Duck was an angst symbol. They also thought Flash Gordon was a crypto-Nazi, by the way.

Were they Red Dwarf fans? What does the prefix crypto- mean, anyway?

Ah, "Red Dwarf"! How I miss that series. As for "crypto", it means someone who is secretly a member of a movement or sympathizes with its ideas.

Has anyone here ever read _How to Read Donald Duck_, written in Chile while Allende was still in power? Some wild and weird propaganda in that one!
