With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

    The president of FIDE was a former Deputy Prime Minister of Russia. NATO has a lot of power, but to say they control FIDE is ridiculous.

      How did Russian players get banned after the Ukraine conflict started, then? NATO has exactly that much power. FIDE is a NATO puppet effectively and is an invalid global sports organisation.
