I have no words... That's the logo for the 2018 World Chess Championships. They just announced a new theme song too.

In real life, this would not be very sexy. At. All.

I don't have much to add but a story. I've played chess here or there. Not particularity well, but I can play okay against another novice.
One day in college, there was this guy I knew. He was playing chess. I joked that I could beat him if he only played with the king. He laughed, said give me a rook, the queen and one pawn and you're on. So I had all my pieces to start, he had three.
Kicked my ass.
Best game of chess I ever played.

I believe we are very likely the only politics forum on the net with an active chess/politics thread. Take that, you bastards. Anyway...
What fresh chess hell is this?
"Sign on to our political point of view--exactly our point of view, with no changes--or you get suspended."
ETA: Oh, and it's a fucking stupid as fuck point of fucking view as well, as if banning athletes will have any meaningful impact, whatsoever.
