Woman Ranked 79,957th in the World for Chess Gets Film Made About Her
You cannot make this shit up.

Meet the Bobby Fischer of women's chess, Phiona Mutesi. Except, unlike Fischer, Mutesi has all the delusions without the talent.

Quote:“Girls are always overlooked, even in chess,” said Mutesi. “But I don’t think there’s any reason why a girl cannot beat a boy. It comes from believing in yourself.”

Says the girl ranked 79,957th in the world...

According to The Guardian, she is a "chess prodigy".

So Disney made a film for her:

Her ranking has actually slipped to 178,950th in the world. Even amongst the women, she is 5,349th.

Good god, I saw a preview about this and wondered why I hadn't heard of her. Should have realized as a Disney film it was more propaganda.

She's not even the best in the chess capital of the world, Uganda...

RE: Woman Ranked 79,957th in the World for Chess Gets Film Made About Her
1628? Shit, my rating was in the 1500's in the prime of my dicking around on chess.com. While I find it awesome and highly commendable that a girl from the slums of Uganda would even become a decent chess player, propping her up as some sort of genius prodigy reeks of propaganda.

As for her ranking, I'm seeing 91,536 among "active" players, and 178,950 among "all players," whatever that means exactly.

Interesting side-note: Her rank among female active players is 5,349. That means over 94% of the top ~91.5k chess players are male. Brace yourselves for the inevitable sob story about misogyny in the world of chess holding women back.

Any reasonably bright male joining a chess club gets to around 1,600 after 6 weeks

Haha - her rating even in bloody Uganda is 39 among everyone and Number 3 among women in Uganda!

Laugh3Laugh3

Sir - I am Number 15 in Kongo, where is my chess movie as the female black version of Bobby Fisher?
But he was Number one in the world!
So? I am a woman, as an oppressed class I deserve a movie even as Nr. 194.789 in the world.

Reminds me of this propagand flic:






Because without sassy black women the US would not have gone to the moon. It is actually a marvel that Uganda does not have a space exploration program already if it is filled with so many high-IQ sassy black women.

It is an Ugandan movie with Western funding:





But I see a big problem there - lack of diversity - more Whites needed, more Asians, more Indians in this racist Ugandan movie.
Also I see a strong homophobic undertone as there are no gay and transgender role models represented in the movie. In addition there is a foreboding feeling of Islamophobia due to a lack of Muslim role models - I see many more oppressed young Muslim men joining ISIS because of movies as this.

All in all - a terrible movie of black supremacism and shocking lack of diversity.

Well there used to be more Indians in Uganda before Idi Amin gave them 90 days to GTFO
