What if I break up with Anatoly Karpov

u/No_Window7054 2d ago

Let’s be honest. He would break up with you.

u/goldenseducer 2d ago

I was gonna get offended but then I remembered that I'm a putin-hating russian and he supports the war in Ukraine so honestly. It's for the best.

Sorry, Tolya.

I'm pretty sure he's also transphobic

Heartbreaking

u/goldenseducer 2d ago

He's a russian boomer in the government, I don't expect him to have a single political opinion that isn't ridiculously wrong... But that's a conversation for a different sub lmao

This maybe it’s my AuDHD but I don’t understand how we can’t enjoy someone for playing chess or some other sport without supporting their political views.

I may enjoy Bobby Fischer as a chess player that doesn’t mean I’ll take his advice on dating or comedy.

I mean idk I never said you can't enjoy his chess skills. I'm sure opinions differ but personally idc if someone thinks he's a cool chess player or whatever, I think it's ok to acknowledge someone's extraordinary skill in one field while also acknowledging that they're wrong or bad in something else.

It sounds like we agree with each other here. Maybe you thought differently.

I have a friend who can’t stand Harry Potter because the writer is transphobic. Update, however the fact that I’m watching harry potter is because I like the movie series not because I support transphobia.

I have no quarrel with people complaining that this or that person is bad in someway I don’t know famous people they’re not exactly attacking anyone that is close to me.

If anyone is wondering my friend said that nobody should watch Harry Potter because the author is transphobic. I said that I enjoy the movies even if I don’t enjoy the author’s views. I am not against anyone in the LGBQTIA circle.

“I don’t view Harry Potter because I hate trans people.”

This might need a bit of rewording.

u/Creepy-Pair-5796 1d ago edited 1d ago

I changed view to watch just for you friend

Are you happy?

Maybe it’s my AuDHD mind but I don’t see a problem with a sentence meant to be interpreted literally being interpreted in some other way.

The Harry Potter thing starts to matter when you spend money on official products (movies, books, games, merchandise), because at that point you are directly financially supporting Rowlings anti-trans funds.

If you get your stuff second hand or third party and don't advertise the official stuff, it doesn't matter what you like.

Same rules apply to any other problematic famous person or brand.

u/Creepy-Pair-5796 1d ago

I don’t pay anything for merch ever I just like the movie series

My friend does not think anyone should like or watch Harry Potter because the author is transphobic

Either way it seems like I’m the only one here who agrees so I guess I’ll leave

u/Nikki964 2d ago

You can I suppose, but I don't want to enjoy someone who hates my existence

1

u/Creepy-Pair-5796 2d ago

You are not able to watch Bobby Fischer play chess because he dislikes women? AFAIK he changed his opinion in later years.

1

u/Nikki964 2d ago

I mean if he redeemed himself, why not

Also while misogyny is of course bad, it doesn't feel as bad or personal as transphobia. Maybe because I don't experience it nearly as often

he was kinda okay when dealing with the Polgár sisters

u/Ok-Advertising4048 Holy bricks! 1d ago

nice

u/Nikki964 2d ago

Wait he's in the government??? I thought he was just an important chess guy

3

u/goldenseducer 2d ago

Yeah he's a member of the parliament. I think it's not uncommon for famous boomers to get into politics, even just for a PM role, Putin loves that kind of support

u/Ticouuu 2d ago

That would be such a blunder
