In Draughts (checkers)-

"Each Checkers player has different colored pieces. Sometimes the pieces are black and red or red and white.

Taking a Turn

Typically the darker color pieces moves first."

I guess it is the elitists who play chess that are at the root of the problem. Wink

The subject should not have even been bought up for discussion ........ it's ridiculous

no more ridiculous than discussing the possibility of aliens living amongst us, or flat earth. It's a discussion bought about because of current events, not a conclusion

how typical of the 'free speech' patrol to object to free speech when it suits them

As usual, you're too pigschitthick to understand this has nothing to do with free speech. If the ABC producer wants to talk about this on his own time, all power to him, but wasting taxpayers money on absolute divisive drivel is not within the ABCs own broadcasting charter.

The Queen can be lost early in the game - so not that powerful overall. Just got a more flexible ability to move, that's all. The Gay Chess Board has every Piece a different colour to create a rainbow effect and a sense of entitlement.

No one expects a dumb as dogshit bondi turd to understand. The producers don't decide their programming based on what some internet turd who doesn't listen to their show wants, he decides based on what his listeners want. It's no more a waste of taxpayer money than it is extending the sewer line further away from bondi.

The subject should not have even been bought up for discussion ........ it's ridiculous

and not worthy of any serious journalistic consideration.

You want to stop people discussing things that don't interest you?

You must be joking. Surely.

So you think that a discussion on whether the rule of chess where the white piece goes first to start the game is racist is worthy debate subject matter?

No.

I just think that people should be able to discuss things I'm not interested in.

Unlike you, I don't want to silence people.
