You can support them by realizing that white male capitalist patriarchy is pitting you against each other as a distraction, so the solution is Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism

White wins on a patriarchal technicality, though black still has advantage

And the moral high ground.

Two queens? Black can't lose.

Games have been won against opponents with multiple queens

But how many have won against an opponent with no king?

[–] Zeppo@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

There’s no king to put in check, though. But also I wasn’t talking seriously or in absolute terms.

When threatening the king is no longer an option, total annihilation of all enemy pieces is the only road to victory.

That only works if your opponent is a minor.

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your opponent already lost by losing the king. The end.

at least they gained a queen in the process

I'm not sure, but Descriptive Notation for black is going to be complicated.

Gay Beam obviously.
