Transphobia in chess is surprising, considering they love it when their lowly foot soldiers transition to queen.

@meganmariehart 😂 Henceforth, "promoting" a pawn shall be known as "transitioning".

Update all the books!

birnim,

@meganmariehart statistically, in most games no pawns are getting promoted anyway. and pawns don't even mandatory get promoted to queens. all you need to know is that in chess, kings don't identify as queens, neither queens identify as kings.

@birnim Thank you for the mansplanation.

birnim,

@meganmariehart go read the rules of chess and the terminology, if you want to have a debate that involves chess. calling a chess piece promotion "transition" given the context and the agenda of your original toot, is no better than calling a transgender person a "mutant".

birnim,

@runarcn @meganmariehart "mansplanation" is not a joke, is a passive-aggressive sexist slang word used by feminazis with a certain mindset and agenda. and I'll call on this bullshit everyone who uses it. making some claims, being called on that then trying to turn that into a joke isn't getting us anywhere here
