chess is a racist game and respecting feudalism

What is interesting you see racism in the piece color. I always correlated the white and black pieces to yin and yang, light and dark energies trying to overcome each other. Then again i always play stoned so I am prone to seeing deeply into nothing. :)

Its definitely also sexist.

Women moving all about wherever they please; meanwhile the man has to sit and move one tiny space at a time.
The patriarchy has failed.

our topic is not about feminism..

@nh78 every pawns can be quenn but cant be king.. dont be romantic.. it s not puzzle.. there is a hierarchy in this game and pawns represent peasents..

@Sarg0n u are all blindfolded.. i dont let them close my eyes.. i saw the big game.. this game made a normal system of feaudlism and hierarchical order in subconscious of people..
@zabranjeni

"pawns represent peasents" that have you well observed. And why is it bad to be a peasent? The Kings are gone in most countries but peasents are still everywhere, they are needed.

But actually pawns in chess just represent entities which can move in a specific way. An abstract mathematical or philosophical value is given to them by you and me and if they could care they probably wouldnt.
@nh78 everyting is same nothing is changed..kings are not gone... their names changed by new capitalist system..
