Neutral flag for USA

When will chess.com staff decide to replace the stars and stripes with a neutral blue flag with a stance on their on invasion of an autonomous country?

Or is this the hypocrisy where you think you can decide to invade countries because you don't like the leadership? That would in affect mean your ok with other countries invading you... a criminal, liar, who probably has never paid taxes. Is it really this site's choice to condone everything?  Or have you lost your freedom of speech already?

So you condemn the others but keep quiet about your own, that's really brave.

Silence is the same as affirmation.

@ Ramon. We have been friends for a long time but, when we turn this into a chat room instead of a chess room we are doomed. Let's not bring politics in here! Chess.com has done nothing wrong. Let's keep our opinions to ourselves. Hope all is well. Vicente-

Is it even confirmed that the US will invade another country? I thought they just want to.

Also, politics are not allowed on chess.com and a mod will likely lock this thread

... it's a bit moot if they declare a stance on a war isn't it? Hypocritical ...with capital h that would be. Why should you invade another country, one isn't enough or what?

Leftists bring politics into everything. They seem incapable of not doing it.

If that is left I'd be proud to be called so. No matter, I know that it will always be the same.

This is not politics, it is a legal issue the invasion of another country is a blatant act of war and if nobody calls it that they affirm that it's ok. Makes anyone who stays silent to a perpetrator.

tbh I always saw the USA as family, as cousins in the same culture. The way you evolve, not any longer. But all of this is not the point.

If chess.com condemns a people for invading a country, they should also condemn their own. It is a raw fact that anything else is pure hypocrisy. Chess.com opened the door to this comment itself.

And if I cannot state these thoughts according to anyone, then it be so, I know where I stand.

With Ukraine, with Denmark and Greenland and with international treaties... without those you suffer as much as anyone. The way the world is evolving, you will remember those words. All beside the point only read the bold letters.

Apologies to any hurt feelings, you can cry on my shoulder.

FWIW, I don't think chess.com should be banning anyone's flag. Either don't ban anyone's or do away with flags altogether.

In my opinion, all flags should be deleted or none from chess.com. But sadly, this will get locked
