Lately I’ve noticed racist and antisemitic remarks while I play games. I’m a proud Jew and also love people from all parts of life. This sort of behavior in my opinion should not tolerated. Anyone else having the same experience?

If you run across that you should screenshot and report.

That’s a good idea. I didn’t think of taking screenshots. Thank you.

Right now in the world there is a large conflict and showing which side you are on might lead to you getting hate. Comment like that are of course still unacceptable

It should be even more unacceptable at this time.

I cannot myself ever condone any racist remarks to anyone, I have always treated everyone as an equal, however there are equally as many in the would we live in who uee the "R" as a weapon at the slightest chance, I had experienced this at my place of work when I was accused of being racist because I changed the radio station over and was carted into an office .... world's gone crazy???

Why would I change my username and profile image. Hide my identity for what purpose? To avoid racist people? You expect me to be a coward?

Bogopawn657; I was once accused of being racist because I said the person in question would like strawberry milkshake 😳 trust me I get it. But this is different. Because of my username, I’m getting verbally attacked.

Wow! Genocide? This is the sort of antisemitism that shouldn’t be tolerated just because I’m Jewish and have Israel listed as my username. Wow! Chess.com please don’t allow this sort of racist remarks.
