Comment on Magnus Carlsen: Chess champion quits FIDE tournament after being told to change jeans
11111one11111@lemmy.world 3 days agoIsn’t that the definition of taking a stand against something you disagree with, tho. He said it was a matter of principal. Idk anything about his reaction to losing to America or anything else about the dude so I’m not arguing he isn’t an ass. I just feel if I played chess and disagreed with their antiquated policy on attire, then I would prolly do something like not wear jeans to bring attention to how stupid it is. But that’s just me and I am a huge supporter if everyone having the right to protest anything regardless of what is being protested.
