i dont even know what to say anymore

at this point, this is not political by the way but about someone who simply just has something wrong in his head. i used to like sergei but i dont even know what he is doing or even speaking anymore? is he trying to sleep like grishuk, become a drunk hero or as i put, a simple crazy self centered donkey who doesn't even understand what he does?

"sergei makes bobby look like this nice guy, makes bobby look like this nice casual chill dude, you know maybe he had some slight thoughts that people didn't you know love but yeah he just i mean really makes uh yeah makes makes bobby look like the greatest person ever" - hikaru when reading his statements in the article

this is pretty much the reason why i now simply dislike karpov, i liked him for who he was just cause of his amazing skill, personality and you know chess but now this just seems like a whole different side which really doesnt make me even want to try and side with him

I used to like Sergei as well, but he's really down a side of himself I can't tolerate. Hikaru is right, and quote "Guys a total loser, needs to be erased from the chess world"

Don't say anything it's easier

I don't think Sergey Karajakin will ever be able to play chess out of Russian again...

Why not lichess

i mean lichess doesnt really care unless karjakin is being abusive on threads and doing the same stuff he does on twitter to which point they will probably ban or punish him

also the sites theme is "free chess for everyone" so regardless of outside reasons karjakin has yet to make any crucial impacts on the lichess site, playing in titled arenas i think

What did he do ?

there are lots of videos, i cant really explain as that would lock the thread

cause of political debates, basically in the most non political way karjakin was just supporting vladamir putin and his decisions saying some explicit or rather offensive comments

Well If you look at what you wrote you are just calling him a bunch of names lol

cause you dont know anything about the events, just look at hikarus video

wow

I don't watch them

exactly, you know nothing

Yep 

uhm what ._.

Thanks for the compliment

Erased? That would be equally terrible. 

Although Karjakin is just being a tool in every sense of the word , his ban is pure propaganda. Take a look at what Mamedyarov said two years ago about the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan (taken from here):

Dear friends, 

Although, I know it’s inappropriate to transfer the war happening between Azerbaijan and Armenia to the world chess community and use it as a campaign channel, but I can’t keep myself from sharing my feelings and using the chance to enlighten my friends around the globe. 

My family and I was born in Zangilan, the region occupied by Armenian military forces more than 30 years ago. I used to live there until the age of 7 and started my chess classes in the lands, which are under occupation. My uncles used to teach chess in Zangilan and my grandad built mosques in our villages. I was a kid of 7 years and very well remember the times when we were driven out of our homes by Armenian military forces. Since then I never saw my village, only on the photos. I miss my village, I miss my childhood memories and live with the dream to come and smell the air of my homeland. And there’re almost 1 mio refugees who lost their homeland and live with the same feelings as my family does. We lost our homes, mosques, the graves of our ancestors, historical monuments, museums, culture and the childhood memories. 

Azerbaijanis are not aggressors and as a proof we were patient during 30 years, waiting for peaceful liberation of our internationally recognised territories (reff. UN SC Resolutions dd. 1992: 822, 853, 874, 885). Unfortunately Armenian government consciously preferred war to piece and tries to progress in the conflict using propaganda and provocations.

For those, who’d like to have detailed and unbiased official information on the conflict, please read below: 

Thank you for your care and support

God Bless all of us

1. Nagorno-Karabakh is not a disputed territory.  This is the territory of Azerbaijan.  Both historically and officially recognized by the whole world, including Armenia.

 2. Armenia has occupied not only Nagorno-Karabakh, to which the claimant is Yerevan, but also 7 Azerbaijan regions around it, which Armenia was not going to give up all these years peacefully.

3. The war is not on the territory of Armenia.  The Azerbaijani army is not trying to seize the territory of Armenia or any part of it.  The war that began with the occupation of the territories of Azerbaijan more than 30 years ago and as a result of which up to 20% of the territory of Azerbaijan was occupied, is the liberating one to get the lands back to Azerbaijan.

4. Azerbaijan could liberate its territories 30 years ago.  Could also do that during 30 recent years.  Our country has a numerical superiority of the army, a numerical and qualitative superiority of equipment and military weapons.  And if you ask why this has not been done before the answer is that as a result of the ceasefire in May 1994, the parties pledged to resolve the conflict peacefully and to do it with the help of mediators - the OSCE Minsk Group.  Unfortunately, over all these years, official Yerevan has not shown the political will for the peaceful liberation of at least 1 cm2 of the occupied land.

5. Azerbaijan has repeatedly said that we are adherents of a peaceful solution to the conflict.  However, with Nikol Pashinyan, the negotiation process has frozen completely, his statements contradicted the peaceful settlement of the conflict, and the increasing shelling of civilians living on the front line only transferred the conflict from partially frozen to unfrozen.  The last straw in the cup of patience of official Baku was the shelling of civilians in Azerbaijan in the front-line zone on 27.09.2020

Did they ban Mamedyarov then?
