The Queen's Gambit Lawsuit (The Eighth Square's Corner)
Channel: The Eighth Square
Date: 2021-10-03

I discuss the lawsuit against Netflix being brought by female chess champion Nona Gaprindashvili because of a factually incorrect line about her in The Queen's Gambit, Netflix's adaptation of the 1983 novel of the same name. I unpack the situation and give my thoughts on the lawsuit, the hypocrisy of the woke, and how political agendas are ruining storytelling.

This is another installment of The Eighth Square's Corner, where I share a less edited version of my thoughts on a range of topics.
