Perhaps you haven't been flagged for months at a time by Hive whales to completely zero out all your posts and comments. I don't think anyone has that sort of antipathy to chess, but there are other kinds of speech that do inflame censors that attack people posting opinions they disapprove of. LGB, Zionist, MAGA, partisan policy, and all sorts of content generates significant interest and opposition, and on Hive that content can be demonetized at will by anyone with enough stake. This has been done to hundreds of thousands of people on this platform, and if you ask @por500bolos, @logiczombie, or @dollarvigilante, they'll tell you. Hive whales can't flag away their BTC, LTC, or XMR.
