Woah. Really? I thought it was just because the founder was a commie. Interesting to know this person is a queerphobe as well.

Should have posted the link earlier. Also sounds like he's mad they acknowledged a country his country was genociding (although I haven't looked into that claim at all, which is why I didn't include it)

Holy shit he’s actually complaining about chess being invaded by woke culture
What a massive dork this guy is.
Thanks for mentioning this btw. I would have never known he was this much of a reactionary shithead.
It's a major issue in the chess world, sadly. Just look at the reactions any time the concept of mixed-gender high level competition is brought up. They will absolutely seethe at the very idea of having to compete against a woman. Even worse if the person who wants to be included is trans.
I don't play or follow chess literally at all. I knew there was a huge misogyny problem with men claiming that women are just fundamentally worse at chess, I didn't know this was controversial, though. I thought the competition categories were already "open" and "women" and I've definitely heard the usual whining by transphobes about letting trans women compete in women's events. There are even chuds who object to the open category? Bizarre.
they ~~banned trans men from open lol~~ stripped pre-transition titles earned in women's divisions from trans men too
WTF is wrong with chess heads
chess especially notable because they ~~banned trans men from competing against their gender too lmaoooooo~~ went the extra step and fucked with trans men too
Holy shit we need to study this person's brain in a lab
Preferably all of it, the sooner the better.
brb going to make an exclusive paid chess platform only for twitter bluechecks and beat this guy to the punch again.
with the tone of that tirade I'm surprised he even sees lichess as a competitor, given it's obvious flaws.
