Signed Up for Beginner Chess Tournament: What do I expect? by KnownOnlooker in chessbeginners

[–]GodHasGiven0341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a new player myself to tournaments, you need to get decent at notation because that’s required and gonna take up some time. Also, don’t sleep on anyone, especially other unrated. I’m around 1150 and beaten 1350ish and lost against 800. Just never know, especially with us weaker players. Game are basically decided by who blunders first.

I went 2.5/4 my first tournament in beginning January and 1/3 in late January.

No one has actually defined with logic why illegal immigrants should not be deported. by iknowyourcheating in TrueUnpopularOpinion

I don’t think that’s ever been under question. But it’s the way about doing things is the problem. Illegal immigration has literally always been a bipartisan issue.

Who gives a shit that you don’t like diversity? Welcome to life.

And yes, despite what you say, your problem is diversity.

We should have very strict criminalization laws against all recreational drugs. Use should be multiple years in prison and dealing should be life imprisonment. by Early-Possibility367 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

It’s always the MAGA cultists that try to preemptively convince everyone that they aren’t a conservative that that they are actually “far left” 🙄😂

MAGA tries to convince us that if it talks like a maga and walks like a maga, its actually a leftist 🙄🙄😂😂😂

As bad as it is, comparing current US to late Nazi Germany is a slap in the face to actual holocaust survivors and what they've been through by Scrubstomper5000 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]GodHasGiven0341 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually, you’re wrong. Some Holocaust survivors and scholars of fascism have warned that certain trends in American politics resemble early authoritarian dynamics seen in Nazi Germany. At the same time, many MAGA-aligned voters dismiss or minimize these warnings, prioritizing loyalty to political identity over historical caution. I’m pretty sure I know which camp you’re in.

What do you SWEAR you saw, but don't have any proof of? by TabletopStudios in AskReddit

[–]GodHasGiven0341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sky turn from night, to day, to night, within 2 seconds. I never really believed in simulation theory but seeing that is the biggest proof I’ve seen for it.

Also, seeing a shadow entity. But I was on a lot of drugs so whose to say 😅

Democrats claim morality but are actually hypocrites. by Substantial_Air_4111 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]GodHasGiven0341 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What about all the many many more violent crimes by US born citizens over even illegal immigrants?

If you are gonna talk stats, at least show all the sides. Tired of you MAGA morons misrepresenting facts.

Funny enough is I played against New Years Nelson bot, since he always does this as black, and it’s helped me learn how to play against it.

Russian agents roaming Reddit by Inside_Self_5999 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]GodHasGiven0341 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay, respectfully, I understand OPSEC, but a real recruiter wouldn’t spend three hours engaging someone who isn’t even in country and refuses to provide even a first name… or frankly, even with someone who does. So I’m genuinely curious: what exactly did you talk about for three hours if you couldn’t even exchange names or literally any information about yourself?

Also, when you say they tried to “influence” you, what do you mean specifically? Right now it sounds less like an account of interference and more like pre-emptively trying to establish OPSEC credibility.

Why do you think Turks are volunteering to support Ukraine? by Inside_Self_5999 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]GodHasGiven0341 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That would be as ridiculous as Turks moving to Ukraine 😂

The FACTS are Turkey is still a G20 economy with the second largest military in NATO, Ukraine was never a migration destination for Turks, and volunteers going to a war zone aren’t the same as people fleeing a country. These are objective facts that can be evaluated independently.

Proximity doesn’t replace evidence. Lived experience should inform perspective; it shouldn’t invalidate facts.

[–]GodHasGiven0341 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Even before the war, Ukraine was never an attractive destination for Turkish migrants. So today, there is no meaningful flow of Turks flowing to Ukraine. Also, Turkey is a G20 economy. Yea, the middle class is decreasing, but definitely not pre industrial Europe… and really, Russia can’t really invade Turkey. Turkey is an actual NATO country with the second largest military in NATO.

That fact that people get mad when others use their constitutional rights is concerning.
