The silence is deafening

As the days pass with little to no actions, I become more concerned that FIDE will be successful in it's attempt to sweep Danya's passing (and it's cause) under the rug. So far FIDE has made one statement: a call for an internal investigation. The CEO of FIDE has a message accusing Daniel's friends for his death still posted. Kramnik continues to post threats, denials, and accusations.

The silence from far too many of Danya's peers is deafening. I have attempted to reach out to multiple other players to discuss tangible ways to put pressure on FIDE moving forward and the response, in every single case, has been effectively the same "it's pointless unless Magnus joins, FIDE is too strong".

That isn't good enough. We, as a community, MUST do better to honor Danya and to prevent further tragedies. What Kramnik was allowed to do, directly under FIDE's supervision, must have repercussions. A 3rd party investigation must take place. Changes must be made for the future safety of all chess players.

We need players boycotting FIDE events until this investigation takes place and real changes are made. We need sponsors to make it clear they do not want to be associated with an organization that allows systematic failures related to harassment and abuse.

My platform is small and there is only so much I can do, if you see this tag/reach out to GM's, sponsors of upcoming tournaments, and related parties. Let your voice be heard. Let the players know that you will support them standing up to FIDE. We can not let them continue to move forward as if nothing happened.

David Pocock says the NACC Commissioner’s position is “untenable” after damning findings against him by the NACC Inspector on Robodebt saying he did “not properly recuse himself” & was even involved in “framing” the “media release”

🚨Breaking; The Israeli army has killed Palestinian artist and cartoonist Mohassen Al-Khatib in a massacre in northern #Gaza.

Her final artwork, completed just hours before her killing , illustrated Israel burning the tents of displaced families and killing them.

[Afif Aqrabawi @AjAqrabawi]

I’m not blindfolded and bound alongside my brothers only because I’ve been barred from entering my homeland. This isn’t the first time Israel has carried out mass executions of innocent Palestinian men. Many of those below are doctors, lawyers, teachers, farmers, etc.

The Israeli military keeps killing and killing and killing and we keep supplying it.

These are facts. Don’t look away. Help end this. https://t.co/MqIyKekRhS

[Shane Bazzi @shanebazzi]

No one can say they didn’t know. Every politician, media or other business that supports Israel’s atrocities is complicit. People burned alive by Israel. This is the genocidal apartheid terrorist state which the Australian government and opposition supports. They are complicit

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

In Northern Gaza, Israel has besieged Jabalia refugee camp, cut off access to food and water, and is now systematically exterminating people. This is one of the most horrifying episodes of an already horrifying genocide, met with disgusting silence from the West.

Like I said, remember it while you can. It's one of the most majestic megalithic sites on our planet.

❗️Swift Parrots have just returned to breed in Lutruwita / Tasmania. Our campaign scientists have recorded them in forests threatened by logging, even though Forestry Tasmania says they are yet to see or hear any of these critically endangered parrots. Sound on to hear 🔊#politas

Damn, after suspensions in response to determined Elands community protest, NSW FORESTRY CORP plans to log the Bulga State native forest from May 20, despite many endangered greater gliders in residence.

Planning meeting today at the Elands hall.
