a : Personally I find there are a lot of imbec*les playing chess who aren't necessarily noobs.
b : I don't feel I'm particularly more intelligent than others, just I'm aware that mental manipulation and disinformation exist so I haven't taken out a conspiracy theory subscription or put my trust in a life coach or guru.
c : I'd say that it's not chess that makes us smart but chess that makes us develop intellectual faculties that prevent us from being exaggeratedly too stup*d.
