The #Niemann v. #Carlsen case is one of a kind in the #chess world. But the US legal system relies heavily on caselaw when deciding these matters. For my chess friends, here’s a 🧵 on a relevant & recent case I found in the same jurisdiction: I present to you Turntine v. Peterson
Turntine v. Peterson is quite similar to Niemann v. Carlsen. It’s a slander & libel case appealed from the Eastern District of Missouri. It’s in the context of a niche competitive sport (dart throwing), where the main defense applied is “Opinion Privilege.”
Opinion privilege is the argument that “there can be no liability under state defamation law for statements of opinion.” This privilege does not apply, however, if a statement “implies an assertion of objective facts,” even if couched as an opinion. (See later link for cites)

Dear #Hans, I don't know much about #chess. But somewhere I am completely convinced towards your #honesty to improve your chess and win as much as you can.
#HansNiemann
You said that you said the know the #truth and you said it as well. Well, there are millions of people like me who believe you. Whatever happens in the future, go ahead full steam and defeat almost every chess player you meet over the board. #HansNiemann
Best players deserve wins, you are one of them.
I'm also believe that #MagnusCarlsen is too perceptive & a master at mind-games; he did this now with you. He wouldn't like your brutal honesty or straight-forwardness, more after losing to you, #Hans
