Free Republic gives the "ZOT" and the "Viking Kitties" to a thread exposing Shrubya's war crime of using a WMD ("Depleted" Uranium) in his Neo-Con wars.
I think the viking thing came from when they ban someone they enjoy the feeling of being viking raiders. They would post the song lyrics from led zeppelin where the lyrics say 'we come from the land of the ice and snow'. In their minds they think it's cool.
and you see the kitty dressed like a viking. ZOT is their word for ban.
Basically FreeRepublic keeps up some of its "troll" posts that it considers as "leftist" after banning the poster (And sometimes makes and bans its own "troll" posters for this purpose) and then insults him or her when he or she can't defend himself or his or her facts using pictures of lightning bolts and atomic expplosions (ZOTS) and pictures of house cats (Viking Kitties) as a part of the insult.
My own white persian cat on Coral Snake's Bites of the week did NOT come from this practice but it originated with Blofeld's white persian cat in the James Bond movies From Russia With Love, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds Are Forever, For Your Eyes Only (Pre theme scene) and Never Say Never Again.
