this site has gone crazy

why is this site hiding the russian flag? caving in to the far woke? are they trying to court amazon's blessings which is needed for twitch? a flag is not anything to do with the president. first they came for belorussian flag and guess who did nothing? well chess.com didn't learn from it. these owners here are xenophobic. they only care about minge outrage on reddit which is why they target eastern europe flags and donate to abortion instead of thinking that the chinese government does 1000x worse than any other state in the world. minges on reddit won't allow you to notice that. free the flags, there's 1000s to pick from. the owners here are in the depravity of sin, they don't have to stomach to be judgers of injustice, no care for a single person of any country in the world going off from how cherry picked their reponses are with flag banning russia here + worse (banning people for political opinions according to their post when you click on the greyed russia flag).

insert footage of a white shirt gang chinese police pay to beat up innocent hongkong men and women returning from work on a train for over half an hour. no issue to a communist reddit loving website

insert footage of the 9 murders taliban have done this month.

insert footage of what iran does to its people

insert the newspaper of china threatening to missile australia if we do x and calling us racist names. insert evidence of former malaysian PM wanting millions of french people to ___ and then more about the ugly side of Malaysia's state where they whip people.

If you'd bothered searching the forums, you have seen posted just 3 hours ago this thread: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/why-is-russias-flag-censored

Which in turn links to https://www.chess.com/article/view/on-the-invasion-of-ukraine

For the rest of Chess.com, I apolgise for my fellow Australian - he's clearly been importing & drinking the Trump Kool-Aid from the US and stopped voting for Peter Dutton because he was too woke and reluctantly votes for One Nation even though they're a bit too lefty for him as well.

this thread though is about chess.com going crazy. i read their article days ago. nowhere does it give a rationale as to why resort to hiding the flag. theyve even hidden the belorussian flag long before there was a war, the chess.com owner loves reddit outrage which is detached from my examples of injustices.

(Psst... they're not the crazy ones.)

you're a pro-ccp traitor to aus. move to nz or canada.

lol. I have friends living and working in Taiwan and am well aware of Chinese hostility to that island's independence and their increasing aggression in the South China Sea - definitely not a fan. They have not actually launched an invasion of any of their neighbouring countries like Russia has, though, so I'm fine with their flag still being available. Note that Russian players can still play chess here, though.

I am also looking forward to our indigenous folks finally getting a Voice to Canberra, as requested in the Uluru Statement from the Heart. Please make sure your head doesn't explode when that happens: maybe you should think about moving countries? I hear that Florida has some folks that you might dig...

if you can't appreciate there being crimes outside of reddit's focus, there'll be others who might

youve got concentration camps on one side and never ending lockdowns on other sides. then you look at all the footage of the beatups that they did to hongkong. no business, no payments if you say something wrong. super arbitrary. i don't trust your will to go imagine. then zone through the rest of the countries. youre stuck on reddit talking points that you can't imagine what happens to iranian protestors who are tortured into false confessions then killed. or the other iranian killed by morality police. you have so much to walk back now. this is my point with chess.com's belief of injustice as insane. i bet the refugee crisis and murders in afghanistan are trendy for the chess redditors too. anything not western is therefore good.

I think I've looked at an occasional reddit meme, but I have no idea what's being talked about over there. I logged off Twitter when my feed started filling up with nonsensical Elon Musk propaganda.

Vaccines saved lives. Attitudes like yours cost them, although probably not in your immediate circle, as you would have changed your username if they had.

Thread's going to be locked as soon as a moderator gets around to it.

I have no idea what fever swamps you are swimming in, but no-one's advocating for the Chinese or Iranian regimes here: they're bad, of course they are. But they haven't launched an invasion of their neighbouring countries like Russia has: if they do, I expact that the international community and Chess.com will THEN ban their flags, while still allowing people from those countries to play chess and not actually denying any of them the ability to do so.

I'm sorry that such simple ideas are beyond your capaciyty to properly digest and comprehend.

if vaccines are so good why did labor allow anyone in the world since end of last year, even from china, to come in and out australia with no need of vaccine and no need of a negative test. and if they secretly test themselves for being positive to covid, well they actually nolonger legally need to isolate if they have covid, you can just go shopping and tell people your positive. its a whole fast one but off topic

belorussia lost their flag here for arresting 1 reporter.

So you were for vaccines when they first came out and aren't any longer? Because the current COVID strains are less deadly than those initial ones and there are now better treatments such as anti-virals for who do fall ill with it as science and medical research have started to come to grips with this new disease. Things don't stay the same forever, and saying that vaccines were a hoax THEN because they're not required NOW is just dumb.

No mention of any arrests in that article. Nor that the Belusrussian flag has been replaced like the Russian one has been, just that the official flag has been replaced by another one also commonly recognised as Belorussian and used by protestors against the regime there.

the hell is going on here
