i chose Korobov as my pfp along with the ukrain flag as a gesture, we believe in ukrain and hope all the players can make it out safely. this will be a fun pfp and i hope more people can join in the small gesture by either changing their pfps to a ukrainian fav chess player or the ukrainian flag of course. here is the original thread https://www.chess.com/forum/view/community/i-changed-my-flag

I think this is a nice gesture. I don't follow Chess much as spectator, so I know noting. Who are the most famous Ukrainian chess players? What are their best pictures? What about their funniest pictures?

Bruh. Ukranians won't appreciate the picture. In post-Soviet jargon the word "rooster" has a very... offensive conotation. Basically it's a word from criminal argo meaning "a man who is violated in prison". Nowadays, it became less associated with the criminal world and became something like a derogatory term for someone who's all words and no action, like a skinny fourteen-old kid who talks big on the internet (a simple example, but it illustrates the point).

So if anything, your picture looks like mockery, especially cruel in times like this. Nobody's gonna read whatever's written there, they'll just see a rooster with the Ukranian flag.
