Chess.com released this statement on the Ukraine war:

https://www.chess.com/article/view/on-the-invasion-of-ukraine

They are yet to release one condemning the attacks on Israel.

Just saying.

Fair point, but you posted this about a month ago and it's still up:

Get off your high horse.

I wrote this article because they did not respect their own law
If Chees com was not politically active, I would never have published such an article

The position against Israel is not important to me, it is important to me when they say that political speech is prohibited and they themselves engage in political activities
For me, a fun place is more important than a political place

Not really. Many companies based in the US such as chess.com were urged when the Russia/Ukraine war started to help stop the war by refusing services to Russia. I think it’s very likely that the decision to close accounts and grey out flags and stuff wasn’t initially chess.coms, but rather was requested by the US as they did with many other US companies.

There once was a comment from Nantucket

That fell out of someone's pocket

Atti found the policy

And read what he could see

“This looks like politics so let's lock-it"

Chess.com Community Policy prohibits debates about politics. Please see chess.com's statement on Ukraine here.
