Are you describing high school or the real world, I can't tell

You could add that the elected mediocrities are beholden to $$$ (whether that's senators or a board of directors).

It's good to see people are starting to catch on.

Update: They unbanned it because the Chess Club claimed they needed it. They definetly don't NEED it but I ain't complaining.

My school just banned chess.com because kids were playing it to often in class. The kids are getting smarter on chess.com and learning more than they are at the school.

My work banned chess.com. They're teaching you about the real world.
