Opinion: I think it's unfair to discriminate against Russian players simply because of their government. Why punish individuals for the actions of their governments? Chess.com should be about neutrality and keeping away from politics and global affairs. It's just chess. You shouldn't make it about you (Chess.com staff). It is not about you or your feelings or your political stances.
