Andrew Tate a Chess Champion? - Chess Forums - Page 13

NotVeryCracked · 2022-09-21T06:32:09-07:00

I was told when Andrew Tate was a young boy, he won a championship in chess. I really want to know if this is even true? Why if true, He didn't take it further? Can He beat Magnus Carlsen? I think He would beat Magnus Carlsen in chess considering He's the TOP G!

Excellent article, David. Thanks for posting.

Andrew Tate is a cancer on society and too many young men have been brainwashed into thinking this is what it means to be a man. The psychological control he wields is sad and appalling.

Honesty. Tate is better than any politician or journalist. He knows what he wants and isn't afraid to speak his mind.

That article(assuming they didn't completely made up those stories) has zero substance.

There’s bad and biased journalism and then there’s well researched and well told journalism and this is the latter. This journalist has put in the legwork - he’s made the calls and visited the places and spoken to people. It’s got plenty of “substance”, far more than any of Tate’s claims to wealth.

Yes, but have you considered that Faraday_mate doesn't WANT to believe that? He's formed an opinion on Andrew Tate and it sucks to feel like you formed a wrong opinion, so it's much easier to just refuse to acknowledge any evidence counter to your already formed opinion. Then you never have to change your opinion or feel like you make mistakes!

I don't care, nor do I like the guy. But what I see is a person that says "look at me, I am rich, famous, I have influence, you can be that too". Most other celebrities and billionaires do the exact opposite. They live in their mansions with private jets and security while fearmongering, telling their followers to live more sparingly, to have less children, eat ze bugs etc.

That, to me is even less likable and we don't care how much "philanthropy" they do to feel better about themselves. To stay on topic, Tate is a good chess player, his father was a known IM.

The fact that he says "look at me, I am rich, famous, I have influence, you can be that too" as a way of scamming people into giving him money is not something I'd consider admirable. It's like the people selling 'get rich quick' books, where they are the only ones getting rich by selling these books, not because of their content.

Emory Tate was not just a good chess player, he was in the US Air Force and he would be turning in his grave to see how his sons are acting now...

You're not being honest here. You like him and admire him, regardless of how he made his money, which is through corruption, abuse and deceit. If you didn't like and admire him, you would not be making excuses for him. If you really didn't care, you would not be defending him.

Nothing wrong with that, (whatever a "brony" is) I was just saying how the poster above me (forgot their name) didn't respond with a actual statement reinforcing their argument

Can someone without describing why they either like or dislike him tell me what his rating is and provide evidence for it, if not what is his expected rating I've read it might be 1600.

A "brony" is a My Little Pony adult male fan: Bros who bond over their attraction to one weird cartoon series.

They're generally considered harmless weirdos.
