Peace dove as flair

It's all a little, no very, hypocritical. Peace dove is nice I pray for Ukraine. In 2014 with the annexation of  Crimea I supported its annexation. I also support the annexation of Donbas and Lughansk. NATO and its allies have no business in Ukraine. It is historical Russian territory and the bandits, those warlords who seized control in Kiev should leave. Only then is there peace in Ukraine.

Ok. I'm not going to sit here and pretend I know anything about the situation in Ukraine, I suggest you do the same. Have you listened to Putin's speech? Here's the link:

I know if not a single western leader who is this clear about the situation. All I hear is anti-Russian propaganda.

I like the handshake flair from @Ramon`s profile, great idea and also taken

Let's keep this on topic and avoid making it political otherwise it will get locked 

to extend this idea: Why doesn't chess.com bring custom flairs, such as flairs of a specific club or so...

then you should listen, in stead of feeding prejudices. And share what you said with all your neighbours 

Ammerbucher - Thank you so much for an idea.  Piece Dove is great idea!  I vote for it.

yes a peace dove would be cool

Good suggestion, and very nice ... (I would like to keep my original avatar nevertheless, but for the moment, this is a great idea indeed ...) May we use that drawing? Is it royalty-free ...?

Good idea seems it has support, I'll see if I can help with getting something added and bring it forward to the staff members. 

Good idea

Well, some people call truth propaganda. I would not use this term either way, just look at evidence.

Yes, I have read his (two) speeches (before acknowledgoing this "people republics", which already has been a violation of international law), and the speech before he started the aggression, which was so confused, probably because he was not sure if he should hide his true motives or admit bluntly that he attacks (whole) Ukraine because he wants a regime change. 

But if there is something you want to explain in a factual way, I would be open to that (if necessary, in private message). 

Btw. I have worked professionally on Putin's (futile) attempt to justify the military aggression legally, I have personal knowledge in international law, and I would say it is absolutely evident that this (and even the steps he undertook before) violated international law, starting an aggressive war even violating the core of the whole system of the United Nations Organisation ... (Yes, one can also talk about Nato and Kosovo, too, for example, but that was somehting different, and even if that was not legal either, the rights violation of party A towards party B does not justify a rights violation of party C towards party D, not immediately, and even less 23 years later ...)

But my OP was even not about Mr. Putin and his reasons (I did not name him there deliberately), it just was about peace and a peace dove ... 

I like the idea, but given that many of us have already protested by changing our flags, I personally like to keep my icon as it also shows the country I'm actually from

Love this idea. Make it happen Chess.com

definitely would like this

This is a fantastic idea!  Please let us know if we should reference this thread when we request the dove flair?

Yes, that would surely be no mistake ... Thank you very much!
