Sorry I meant to say I hope that the police use maximum force and kill or maim a bunch of innocent people, thus paving a way for a proletarian uprising and socialist utopia

rapper is probably going to beat ghost because rapper was smart enough to bring a gun instead of a knife

the implication is that the white side is the instigator of the conflict. many other board games that share roots with chess omit this small bit of narrative

I'm pretty sure the colors of the pieces don't represent race, OP, but rather good and evil. Getting to go first is God's reward to the virtuous.

It is racist that the black pieces are evil, however.

Pawns get sex-changes when they reach the end of the board. Pretty progressive for an ancient game, having half the pieces be transsexual.
