Bobby Fischer Inforgraphic [VFS]

An infographic about Bobby Fischer made by Julia Campana, Ji Yeong Seul, and Matthew Simon in Motion class at VFS. About 280 hours worth a work creating assets, composition, and sound went into this. Sort of going for a Russian propaganda/Sin City look. We are pretty happy with the outcome.

Some of what you say may be true. He was a genius when it comes to chess, but he was very Anti-semetic. Calling the USA "a farce controlled by dirty, hook-nosed, circumcised Jew bastards." Wanting them to "arrest all the Jews." He even praised the Sept 11 attacks the day after it happened, calling it wonderful news. How is any of that not Anti-Semetic or Anti-American?

at the end it says he was born on march 19th that is wrong he was born on march 9th

@mattsimon77 Why don't you just come out and say you thought he was crazy, instead of trying to point out what you think is an error in my statement? Isn't true the timeline is off? Who questioned his insanity? Only does who disagree with him in the first place.

@GWOSAPAT

Emphasize insanity? I believe it says, "...brought Fischer's sanity into question". Pay attention if your going to comment!

[MrRyanYounger]

Very nicely made infographic, well done.

I can't believe what Jews do on the 8th day to a newborn.

good for you, stand by your blatant falsifications...

[HaxoAngmark]

As far as Fischer's % of Jewish parentage, I stand by what I have posted. If you wish to perform DNA analysis to determine his exact _genetic_ % of Jewishness (whatever that means), contact the Iceland authorities for permission to exhume.

I also stand firmly by my view that Fischer's bigotry was vile, repulsive and saddening, plus a tragedy for chess. If this makes me a "know-it-all" so be it.

As for "dissing," that began here with wnxsilence's comment about "American pigs."

[cidermale]

HA! I was only being pedantic to point out your factual inaccuracy since you seem to be a "Mr. Know It All" by dissing my buddy ~wnxsilence~ So maybe not everyone has kept up to date with current knowledge of who Bobby's real father might have been and they still go by the old story that he was half-Jewish. It doesn't mean you have to replace a factual inaccuracy with another factual inaccuracy and act like you're so well informed.
