Jeez😂😂😂😂😂

How can anyone sit and say something like that with a straight face! Any boomers around here...? Makes all of us look like millennials!

@@TheAngelOfDeath01 Generational names and division didn't really begin to be perpetuated until World War I. Up to that point, people were just people all living the same life. The difference between a boomer and a millenial and a baby boomer is ~50-60 years, depending on personal definition. The difference between someone born in 1850 and a boomer is ~100 years. It does make sense that with the sweeping changes in virtually every facet of 1st world life through the 20th century, there are differences in attitude and opinion between generations. But in general, few individuals fit neatly into the stigmas or generalizations attached to the generation they came from aside from "The Greatest Generation" which produced some of the most influential and intelligent people in the world, Malcolm X, MLK Jr, Ray Bradbury, Rosalind Franklin, Henry Heimlich, just to name a small handful. Picasso is from the "Lost Generation." The Beatles, Zeppelin, Hendrix, The Clash, all from "The Silent Generation." Those left of the Boomer generation follow not the assumptions that they are conservative and strict, but are equally split in political and societal opinion. The term "Generation X" described alienated and ignored youthful ideas suppressed by the previous generations, but the ideals they adopted from the Greatest Generation and have long taken hold and are dominant today. Some "Millennials" are getting to be 40 years old now. Generation Z, my generation, have generated the largest economic growth in first world countries in the history of the world. And the newest label placed on a generation, "Alpha," is comprised of the teenagers and children of today. By 2025 Alphas are expected to dwarf other generations in size, with nearly 2 Billion projected to be born in this generation. I don't know why I went on this rant, to be honest. Maybe because I think the terms "boomer" and "millennial" need to be retired and put in the ground as they have come to respectively mean "anyone older than me" or "anyone younger than me." Or maybe because history has only rarely been so firmly divided by generational gaps as deeply as it is now. Anyways. Sorry for ruining the joke, Hikaru.

@@jameson5508 I know all that. But, you completely missed why I said as I did...

bro wtf is this reply section

What does it mean?

"Scrubs are those who can't get no point from me" -GM Hikaru I mean, I guess he's technically correct...

@@ParamjitKaur-ki1ue it means that he was a scrub shrub

@@theplutonimus wow that didnt help a bit

@@ParamjitKaur-ki1ue Did you think that I am helpful? Turns out you were wrong, anyways a scrub means more like kind of wimp but not wimp, I dunno how to describe it Google describes it as A person who is insignificant and contemptible

My revisions: Hikaru in one word: Phenomenal Fischer: Deservedly in the convo for GOAT Fischer: Hates CHESS, itself, because (in his words) "It became all about memorization."

Agreed I can't imagine a morphy who knows modern theory😰 he will kill us

@@akramansari885 sure

Capablanca would've made mincemeat of Morphy.

@@kevinmalone3210 Didn’t know Capa was such a sore loser.

he even learnt chess from other's games, without being taught by anyone

didn't expect to see you here but I guess it's true that chess is exciting

you

Yeah, but if the knight takes the king, you can never win, because there's no king to checkmate

Mamyedorah, I mispelled that, has some of that Morphy spunk in him.

What do you mean

So every historian is a time traveler because they know what happened in the past?

@@mikeock2087 absolutely

@@mikeock2087 how else do they know? are you just discovering this? i was pretty sure the fact that all historians are time travellers was common knowledge

@@mikeock2087 He knows too much..

I agree. This was great. From Hikaru's ranking of the great players videos a couple months ago, it's clear he's not much of a historian of the game. Just from my limited knowledge, I could name Kasparov, Seirwan, Feingold, and Agadmator as far more knowledgeable of chess history. Maybe as Hikaru gets older and his own play starts to fade, he will have something to turn to, focusing more on analysis. It's fun to join him for this!

time?

I think paul morphy said that

Ohh okaay Thanks

m'lady

Okay, I haven't wasted my life. :D

he said compared to Paul Morphy

@@brandonk.4864 that’s only the difference in points though Fischer probably would beat Murphy as he played later on with more knowledge

@Miller Hansen but he didn’t, who’s to say what would’ve happened because it didn’t

@@therockdwarfmockdwarf1476 exactly is Capablanca had dies before playing alekhine no one would have thought he would beat capa

@Philosopher KS You could argue that hikaru has more competition, if carlsen stays on the course he’s on then he’ll probably be considered better than anyone else in history. Hikaru also has a more modern understanding of the game so he already has an advantage

😂😂

"Apperantly everyone in this chat is german now" He underestimates the number of german viewers :D

You are not alone there 😂

I searched for that comment 😂

I'm not german and don't even speak german that well but for some reason i understood.

True, Fischer proved himself, and is a legend.

Hahaha lol nice one

Why? I don’t get it.

On the flip side, every player now a days has the opportunity to learn from players before them, AND we have super engines. You got to respect each generation for their best player’s dominance.

I looked into morphy and I saw that his lawyer career wasn’t very successful; although, I hope this wasn’t the case

As if one's ability to recognise & remember patterns is somehow distinguishable from "talent"! The self-contradictory notion that a weak chess player can memorise positions is possibly romantic at heart, rather than merely stupid. Are we to take it that given a computer & a subscription to New In Chess Paul Morphy would have reached 5000 ELO? Or at any rate far exceeded the strength of a Carlsen or a Kasparov? Time to make up your mind. Was it harder for a strong player to excel at chess when there weren't many strong players around? Or is it harder now that there are millions of them?
