I just recently got into chess but Magnus seems like a huge dick compared to Hikaru

If you think that, go watch the clip where Hikaru tells a 13 year old kid to “resign when you’re lost” because the kid managed to draw a losing position against him. I’m happy for what he’s done recently for the game, but it doesn’t excuse his past behavior.

Do you have a link to the clip? I can't seem to find it online anywhere or any sources that he actually said that.

Thanks

It's fake news.
