My father played him in 1956

In round 1 of the 1956 US Amateur Championship, Fischer drew with Michael Tilles.

Such self loathing, my father a tortured soul also, but he had no shame for being born a Jew.
Gutsy Jew dissident? I wonder where this guy was coming from.

Champ Bobby Fischer a Gutsy Jew Dissident !

On Jan 13, 1999 Fischer granted a live radio interview to a radio station in Budapest, Hungary. It was the first of over 20 radio interviews he would make in the next 3 years. On Jan 14, 1999 Fischer granted an interview to Baguio Radio in the Philippines. He accused the Jewish community of conspiring against him and denied the holocaust of the Nazis. He has since made 9 interviews over the radio. On May 24, 1999, in Baguio, Fischer said: ''America is totally under control of the Jews''... ''The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense are dirty Jews''.

Fischer was a great chess innovator. (He was not PC, but that's not what he was about.) He was not however as powerful a player as contemporary masters such as Karpov or Kasparov (his refusal to play Karpov sort of weak). If you read chess notation, you might note Fischer played the traditional king-side openings generally (e4), and open sicilian on black (strong on black, but usually sort of tactical and chaotic) . The modern players generally play d4 and eschew the e4 (had RJF played a Ruy Lopez against a Kasparov he would have been spanked)

RJF, RIP

Fischer reminds me of Paul Morphy for some reason.

Rest in peace Crazy Mike

Not really about being PC.
What did Nietzsche have to say about self loathing?
That may be a a rhetorical question.

If you read chess notation
