Christopher Yoo, 17, "struck a videographer from behind" after he lost in the U.S. Championship Tournament.

You might think, who cares? But as a chesscel, stuff like this is quite rare because of how drama-free and uneventful the chess world is. A 17 year old Chinese-American grandmaster assaulted a reporter after losing a chess game vs Fabiano Carauna (one of the best chess players in the world). From my understanding, Christopher Yoo (the 17 year old GM) had a decent position, but ended up blowing his lead. It's definitely quite annoying when this happens, especially when you're playing against a higher rated opponent that you should've been able to draw or beat, but it's clear there was something else going on here.
Look at him. I guarantee you he asked some chink in his class to homecoming or something thinking "How could she say no? I'm a nice, smart, well-accomplished chess player already." only to get the door slammed in his face for being a subhuman trucel, and this incident of losing a chess game and then hitting a reporter (a female reporter funny enough) was simply the last straw.
Being blackpilled really just gives you an alternate lens to look at the world. Normies will never be able to deduce the actual reason why some docile chink violently attacked someone out of nowhere, but taking one look at him and his age, it's clear what the reason was. You'll never see chad Magnus Carlsen hit someone over a lost chess game jfl.
