Holy hell. And not just for the chess meme.

That's like a badge of honor at this point.
Will there be an awards ceremony?

Let's see his response
oh damn
- “Ah, a predictable attack. Now, Mr. Putin, I am guaranteed checkmate in twenty-three moves.”
- Ok, I get it now.

Being anti imperialism is truly the most extremist of terrorisms.

Are they adding Deep Blue to that list as well? Or was it shut down sometime since 1996

- Removed, ableist slurs are not allowed.
  
  Did you fail to remove or are removals instance specific? I would expect them to be propagated to other instances.
  
  Slur should be allowed and encouraged when its about russians
- Lol... apparently we're not allowed to say "retard" here.
  What a bunch of children.
