Is Chess Racist?
Sort:
chess is not racist as such, it was just decided centuries ago to give whitey the first move because whitey is so lame and needs all the help he can get. A bit like putting whitey in the 100m sprint - have a heart Bro, give him a head start. 😆

White ALWAYS goes first, and black must wait for them.
Black ALWAYS goes second, and must react to White's action.
...What other ways could chess be played?
Chess is not racist... - ...hm, wait... - to be on the safe side do not use black and white chess pieces but gray ones. 32 gray chess pieces (for each player the same gray). I promise you, after some moves it's gonna be fun... :-D

lol it's funny because you are completely incorrect, white people dominate. Outnumbered, outsmarted, outmatched. I'm blacker than the void in your head and even I can see that. And although they dominate, white people deserve to rule countries. They are the reason we have civilization. Check your privilege bro.

It would be cool if players had to move at the same time, so you didnt know the other ones move before you moved.
Like you said 1 ... 2 .... 3 .... GO! and then both moved.
Such a thing exists.
MMA. UFC.

Chess was a game played by Kings! Kings created it as an alternative to war. In that way the Kings and there Kingdoms where spared ! The board was huge and the pieces where made up of criminals that where sentenced to death and they actually stood atop the board.
Such a thing exists.
The Roman Coliseum, where the gladiators re-enact historical battles.

People miss that fact.
Chess is toy soldiers.
Girls play with Barbie dolls.

Don't laugh, I've read that in prison it's common for blacks to play chess where black moves first, and the board is set up with the black square on the right, because "white is on the right" is racist, etc.
It must be in the Star Trek Mirror Universe.
Where to be a good guy is bad.
And being bad is "baad" (good.)

That is a joke. But it is not a joke.
It is a common tactic. The Yin discredit the Yang.
A "square" is bad thing. Someone who works from 9 to 5. Someone who conforms to the rules of society, as a square brick conforms to a wall.
They undervalue what you have to sell what they have (or so called have).
Those "square broads (women, who have broader hips)".
You have to understand your value. Fair and "square".
Don't listen to that "jive turkey."

The fact that this is an actual argument is silly. If white decides to play a difficult to understand opening their probably worsening there own position. With this in mind whoever moves first doesn't matter. Also if black went first it would change absolutely nothing except make it more confusing. So even creating this post was to attract attention. White or black it doesnt matter which goes first but white goes first because it has been normalized and is easier to remember current openings.
