One who blindfolds someone; a person who covers another's eyes or obscures their understanding.
From 'blindfold' (to cover eyes) plus the agent suffix '-er' (one who performs an action). The term refers to the person performing the action of blindfolding.
The word 'blindfolder' is interesting because it points to something often overlooked—there's always *someone* doing the blindfolding. Historically, this might be a guard, an executioner, or metaphorically, someone spreading misinformation. The word reminds us that ignorance often has an agent.
