Does true genius demand craziness?
>>17425410No, there's brilliant chess players who were never crazy (or only kind of crazy). Carlsen is sane enough and Karpov is so normal that he became a successful apparatchik.
The entire world is mad instead, only I, a nihilist, can live calmly and objectively, for I am a genius who understands everything.
You need to be turboautistic which is close enough
>>17425414>Carlsen is saneTranslation: I have never actually watched modern chess
>>17425441>t. assblasted hancel
He was saner than many!
>>17425442>"No... its IMPOSSIBLE THAT I LOST!!!">"IT HAS TO BE SOME ELABORATE BUTT PLUG SCHEME!!!!"
Genius is not a character trait, it is mind-bogglingly hard work and dedication.
>>17425530which is a character trait
>>17425441The hans niemann mess aside, Magnus carlsen is an arrogant lefty rich kid from Norway. At least Bobby was born poor.
>>17425555>leftyHe doesn't care about politics at all.> rich kid from Norway. At least Bobby was born poor.What did you mean by this?
>>17425530>Genius is not a character trait,Yep, it's a brain trait.
>>17425410Most of the stuff mathematicians do looks like complete alien madness
>>17425527>retarded 1200 chess.com casual fell for hansen's memesSad.
>>17425573?
>>17425604>he doesn't knowKek I was right.
>>17425606I'm not even the same anon.
>>17425610Niemann's anal beads is a meme from a chessbrah stream, Carlsen never implied anything of the sort.
>>17425614I know but didn't he imply that Niemann somehow cheated?
>>17425410>Does true genius demand craziness?Not chopping up little boys’ dicks is craziness in the minds of Americans.Who decides what is crazy, and what isn’t?
>>17425617Insinuations like that are normal in chess, they happen all the time.
>>17425410why do chuddies became obsessed people with scoring well at games?
>>17425410who said bobby was crazy?
>>17425560>why dont people like arrogant divas who never had to struggle about anything
>>17425733Because they can't score with women.
>>17425410he was a genius at playing chessnot a genius in general
>true genius; dedicating your life to a board game
>>17425543Nope, it's discipline which anyone can devote their time to.
>>17425414Carlson couldn't hold a candle to bobby's creativity and raw genius. He is essentially a soulless chess robot. transport Carlson back in time with the same resources (no engines) Bobby had and he would be just another GM.
>>17427345The most prominent trait of Carlsen's game is that he goes for suboptimal lines to avoid engine bullshit.
>>17427337And having said discipline is a character trait to an extent; don't even bother replying.
>>17425410Of course. All genius people were anti-semitic lunatics for some weird reason. Bobby Fisher, Dostoevsky, Many Roman Emperors, Tom Ford, Nicola Tesla, Wagner etc.
>>17425560Being a cunt when you have a reason to is understandable because of social disparity, when you don't you are just an annoying prick
When crows exhibit pattern recognition, they call them clever.When Fischer exhibited pattern recognition, they called him racist.

>>17427703>to an extentTry learning about your brain sometime xD
>>17427217St. Robert James Fischer: "I resent being called a chess genius. I'm an overall genius who happens to be good at chess."I listened to all of his live radio interviews. And in one of them, he said either the foregoing or something similar.https://web.archive.org/web/20071230002323/http://www.fischer.jp
