Does true genius demand craziness?
>>
>>17425410
No, 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 sane
Translation: I have never actually watched modern chess

He was saner than many!

Genius is not a character trait, it is mind-bogglingly hard work and dedication.
>>
>>17425530
which is a character trait
>>
>>17425441
The hans niemann mess aside, Magnus carlsen is an arrogant lefty rich kid from Norway. At least Bobby was born poor.
>>
>>17425555
>lefty
He 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.
>>
>>17425410
Most of the stuff mathematicians do looks like complete alien madness

>>17425527
>retarded 1200 chess.com casual fell for hansen's memes
Sad.

?

>he doesn't know
Kek I was right.
>>
>>17425606
I'm not even the same anon.
>>
>>17425610
Niemann's anal beads is a meme from a chessbrah stream, Carlsen never implied anything of the sort.
>>
>>17425614
I know but didn't he imply that Niemann somehow cheated?

Not chopping up little boys’ dicks is craziness in the minds of Americans.

Who decides what is crazy, and what isn’t?
>>
>>17425617
Insinuations like that are normal in chess, they happen all the time.

why do chuddies became obsessed people with scoring well at games?
>>
>>17425410
who said bobby was crazy?
>>
>>17425560
>why dont people like arrogant divas who never had to struggle about anything
>>
>>17425733
Because they can't score with women.
>>
>>17425410
he was a genius at playing chess
not a genius in general
>>
>true genius; dedicating your life to a board game
>>
>>17425543
Nope, it's discipline which anyone can devote their time to.
>>
>>17425414
Carlson 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.
>>
>>17427345
The most prominent trait of Carlsen's game is that he goes for suboptimal lines to avoid engine bullshit.
>>
>>17427337
And having said discipline is a character trait to an extent; don't even bother replying.
>>
>>17425410
Of course.
All genius people were anti-semitic lunatics for some weird reason. Bobby Fisher, Dostoevsky, Many Roman Emperors, Tom Ford, Nicola Tesla, Wagner etc.
>>
>>17425560
Being 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.

Try learning about your brain sometime xD

St. 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.
