When you play chess the opponent holds a white pawn and black pawn in his hand. You do not know which is which. The adversary selects which hand. If the black man is the opponent and selects the hand holding the white pawn and moves first does this make the black man a racist?
This stupidity must stop.
As long as stupid white people keep going along with it, why should they stop?
True, plus in round robin tournaments you play twice against each opponent, one game with each color. In swiss tournaments the pairing system tries to balance the number of times you play each color, but it is not always possible to have the same number of games with each color.

To continue... if the black man were a white man, then he would be guilty of taking advantage of his unearned white privilege by accepting the result which allows him the first move. Regardless of the tossup outcome, the white man must always bend the knee before every game. And the number of games that the black person wins must always be kept equal to or greater than the number of games that the white person wins, else the game itself is inherently inequitable in terms of outcomes, and therefore inherently racist, as well as the referees, who would then be also be racist. Has the international chess organization contributed a share of profits to BLM? If not the international chess organization is then also, of course, racist. And even if it did contribute to BLM this year, did it also contribute to BLM since BLM’s inception? If not, then the chess organization must be deemed to have a racist background, and garner a designation as a racist organization.
Any computers that are used to play against any black person and prevail, are hereby designated racist along with the game itself. Programs that indicate any correlation between skill and winning at chess shall be deemed racist since this is not necessarily always a racially equitable outcome, as it needs to be in order not to be considered racist. Any programmers involved in the writing of any such chess program shall be recorded in a new national database of working towards suppression of people of color, for later use in court cases as evidence of a background in hate programming. All chess sets must be destroyed— preferably, burned— whenever and wherever found. They must be banned from schools as well as chess clubs and any classes that teach chess, along with its instructors. School officials who ignore this directive do so at peril of being declared racist and immediately fired. Anyone who has ever been a member of a chess club shall be considered a member of a racist organization, potentially a hate crime in starting with laws to be passed and signed during the next legislative session in which there is a liberal majority.
If your parents ever played chess or taught you how to play chess, save yourselves trouble, and report them promptly to a friendly BLM or ANTIFA community activist in your neighborhood. Thank you.
