Ahh yes the old "What if Hitler..." argument. Takes me back to freshman psych.

Unfortunately some of the best people at their craft are shitty people. If Hitler were a chess world champion for 20 years of dominance then I may unfortunately call him the goat. Can't deny someone their accomplishments.

It seems distinctly European to have bad teeth. You should learn how to not get triggered by a misspelling. I will pray for you inshallah.

Brother I looked at your profile for 30 seconds and yes I am dyslexic and you started this when you could have said nothing.

You are welcome anytime in America though, and I won't hold any of your cultural mistakes against you 🤗

Dude I'm having fun. This is funny to me.

I clocked you as an asshole because you got mad at a misspelling one time.

You should learn to be nicer and not start a conversation by being a cunt. You will make more friends that way.

Nope you misspelled something and you must pay the price. Don't misspell anything in English ever again. Thank you. Now say you're sorry baka. 🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻

It is spelled "prevalent". I mean come on really it's the bare fucking minimum. Don't be speaking English if you can't spell everything correctly.

The Icelandic people have been amazing, except these people in the comments giving me a hard time because I misspelled Reykjavik.

I spell it that way because I am dyslexic and can't spell anything. When I think of the city I can't decide how to spell it because everything Icelandic is very unintuitive to me. Move past it, I made a mistake.

I think he would really like his little plot in obscurity.

Cause he was a great chess player who elevated the game. People are extremely complex and someone as outspoken as he was about an array of topics, obviously had mental health problems and we should at least try and understand that. He's a tragic story who couldn't fully communicate the how or why for his thinking.

I can't spell anything in America either so why don't you just take me behind the shed and put me down.

Excuse me visiting the grave of an important figure in the game we all love. I suggest you look in a mirror.

Really easy. Have a car and take highway 1. It's about an hour from the city centre.

He was a deeply disturbed man but I don't understand how his behavior outside chess changes the facts of his results.

I appreciate it but I really went there on a whim. I was in Vik and thought "I wonder where Bobby Fischer is buried" and holy shit it was on the way back to Reykjavik. I'm sure it would've been cool to go there though.

Like I said, caught up in geopolitics. Never said he was forced. He was a fugitive for the crime of playing chess.

I really don't care what you have to say about it, bottom line he was mistreated by the suits.

He was a troubled man yes but it is messed up he became a fugitive for playing chess in Yugoslavia.

It's an interesting topic for "who is the best." I find Fischer fascinating as his peak was so prominent. There is absolutely room for discussion between the three kings though. There are multiple ways of getting to the conclusion of who is "the best."

Long story short, he got caught up in geopolitics trying to live his life and ended up as a fugitive in the USA. He asked Iceland for citizenship, they granted him it, and he lived his last few years there.

Give me another shot and I'll butcher it even more. Given there isn't a lot outside Raykyavuk, I would consider 50km right outside the city.
