  • I checked the solution and it was much simpler than I expected; can't the pawn just kill the knight to avoid the king having to move back/forth? Doesn't seem like checkmate since to escape check it is legal to capture the threatening piece.









  • It is so patently oligarchic. Sucks that it seems like the election winners will be denied power ultimately but moments like this are a rare, great example of when participation in bourgeoise politics is a good tactic; this will make the French painfully aware of how farcical and hollow their flavor of "democracy" is and will radicalize any prole who is even partially paying attention.

    Seems like very short-term thinking on Macron's part - but given the current geopolitical stage we're existing within he may realize that the mask is going to fall off regardless, there are precious few rationales to keep masquerading as an acolyte of democracy.

    Would love to hear what the political climate is like in-person from a French comrade.
