Just played a racist guy. Rant.

I'm from India, it's late night here, and I was bored, unable to sleep. So I was just chilling and playing some chess, and I thought of trying the bongcloud opening just for fun. My opponent clearly took offense to that and went off on a rant in the game chat about how Indians are street poopers and how they smell like curry. That was completely unexpected for me and I haven't experienced this before here in my short span of downloading this app. He was from the US, so I told him that at least we don't have a senile for a president. He didn't like me giving back his own medicine, so he went off saying that at least the US isn't a slave nation like India and that the US rules the world. He won that game, else I'm sure he would have continued with his verbal diarrhea had he lost from a bongcloud opening. Chess.com, please do something about these fringe elements of society. They hide behind the safety of internet anonymity like cowards, else they would've got punched in the face.

I love the irony of British people who keep reminiscing about the good old days of the British Empire and are blissfully blind and ignorant to the suffering they caused around the world. Karma gets you, and it will catch up some day. Already is, with immigrants taking jobs and then brits whining about it.

That's a logical fallacy. I've had wonderful conversations with good people here while playing games. Just because I leave the chat on doesn't mean I am to blame for literal racism. I hate it when people try to take the focus away from the real issue, toxicity and bigotry online, which is seeping into this site too unfortunately. I can turn the chat off, that won't stop him from abusing someone else. The problem is about bigotry, and turning the chat off doesn't solve it. But I guess there's no solving it since the internet is basically a safe hiding place for racists filled with hatred to vent their frustration of a failed life. Anyway, as I said, it's just a rant.

Lmao brits holding onto the idea of the British Empire are extremely delusional. Good riddance from colonialism and violence. We are much better off now, Britain looted a lot of wealth from around the world. What goes around, comes back. Those days are gone, keep dreaming. British colony sympathisers are just racists in disguise who are blind to the atrocities caused by them worldwide. Ever wonder why most colonies around the world hate Britain? But yeah, keep living in your bubble of bearing the 'white man's burden'.

It isn't 'your' Empire. You've done jackshit. It is the empire of your predecessors. Stop appropriating the 'achievements' of others as your own, what is truly yours is your own life. Sad little boys thinking they are great just because they were born in a country with a history of colonization while living in their mom's basement.

It's easy to say such stuff hiding behind a screen. The same people become mum when confronted irl.

Must suck being a racist filled with hate and with a misplaced ego and perceived sense of superiority. Anyway, I firmly believe that the best treatment for racists like you is to simply ignore. Your brains are too rotten to actually be empathetic or connect with other people. Keep living a sad life, I'm outta here. Also, I've taken a screenshot of this conversation to prove that colonialists and racists exist even in sites like chess.com. I'm posting it on reddit, I'm quite famous there. Name and shame, let everyone know your mentality.

You were the one who poked your nose in this post with your misplaced nationalism. It is one thing to love your country, that is beautiful, and it is another thing to outright take pride in the fact that you committed atrocities in lesser privileged parts of the world and even looted their wealth. You were the one with the first comment in this thread, trying to take a jab at me. Also, remember everytime that you get conned by someone from our continent that they are the same people who got conned by the British a few hundred years back. This is simply karma. I'm not defending them, just saying that what goes around, comes around. There will be consequences of racism and colonization, whether you like it or not, and it's already happening. There are shitty people everywhere, from your country as well as mine. But to simply stereotype all of our countrymen as scammers is simply racist, just like stereotyping all of your country men as being colony sympathisers is racist. But you clearly are one, whereas I ain't a scammer. So you're in the wrong here, and I'm reporting you for racism too.

Who is 'us'? Racists? Yeah, racists need to be exposed.

You should probably stop doing all those unsavory things on the internet, you know. It will minimize your personal data exposure and reduce the amount of scammers knocking on your door.

But then, there's probably not much else to do in your mum's basement.

@shriyarai-----ignore "CaracticusPotts"...it's an alt-account of the old TROLL, @HiramHolliday...he was always spouting off that British-Empire-nostalgic bullshyt back in the old days...he's Scottish, but he might as well be an *English lapdog*, because that's how he acts!! He's a LOWlander (not a traditional Scottish Highlander), and as such he deserves the utmost contempt. And he's a hypocrite to boot---in one thread he was whining about "Scottish independence" being foiled in some vote, yet in his usual threads he's always waving that Limey flag and crying about "Britannia"...what he doesn't know--or refuses to admir--is that history remembers the British Empire as the Evil Empire...we kicked their Limey carcasses out 250 years ago, and goid riddance! Just tell him to shut that phallus-hole he has in the middle of his face...

I'm glad there are still people like you who understand and empathise. I expected most people here to have some common sense but the very first comment I got here on this post was from a colony sympathiser. Goes to show how deep the rabbit hole of internet armchair hatred and toxicity goes.

Speaking of street poopers, next time, you should ask him if he has ever been to California.

Sometimes it's not a choice. Obese folks may have difficulties squatting. Just the other side of things ...

Why is there a need to give back evil and propagate it further? Good, yes, paying it forward, etc.  Just report and move on.

Btw I like smelling curry

There's no reason to counter one bigotry with another. Just saying.

But sometimes it's just funny.  It could be an ice breaker or a face breaker. You choose.

But then again I'm an east African dictator fused with a South Indian rice cake. So there's that.

The two aren't comparable. I called one guy senile, whereas he called an entire population as street poopers. It isn't giving back 'evil', it is simply not tolerating bullshit. I will never ever be bigoted or racist towards a country or race or stereotype an entire population. What I said was not evil nor was it bigoted, it was just a harmless jab back at him, since these bigots get away with their hatred without being caught. And it's naive of you to think that 'simply reporting and moving on' is going to change anything. I have reported him, but chess.com hardly ever takes any action. Stop telling victims of racism to 'just move on', you don't know how it feels.

shriyarai

And it is interesting that out of everything I wrote, you chose to cherry pick what I said instead of focusing on his unwarranted hate. I didn't give any hate back, I simply showed him that he can't get away with it without facing consequences. If I had said that 'americans are obese' , or that 'americans are dumb', then THAT is hate. Simply pointing out that your president is senile is not hate in the least.

First, I never said "report and move on."

Second, my post was not even a reply to your post, but to the one that mentioned California street poopers (by blackmore324).
