This is what @HansMokeNiemann had to say about Hikaru Nakamura -
"Hikaru, he was completely inactive, only played these weak players. I don't understand - its nothing personal, but what do you expect of your results if you are completely retired?
I think it shows that playing 2100s is not the best training - maybe if he would've played the World Cup or the Grand Swiss.."
Interview: @ram_abhyudaya/ ChessBase India
@chookchookflea@chess24com it would be ridiculous think naka is cheating the guy has been a top player for a while unfortunately because of this terrible performance ppl like you will forget abt it
"12...0-0 was not in my file!" says Nakamura, "and it was too difficult to find [13.Ne4!] over the board." Hikaru is unimpressed by the work done by his seconds, who he doesn't name but describes as "strong GMs"

🇺🇸 Hikaru Nakamura criticizes anti-cheating measures at the Candidates.
Speaking live on Kick with Jon Ludvig Hammer and Fiona Steil-Antoni, Nakamura called the security protocols “nonsense,” arguing they’ve gone too far.
Players are scanned before and after games, with strict controls and multiple checks in place.
“At some point you have to ask… who are we? Mossad agents in Iran or what? We’re just chess players.”
He added that he hasn’t raised it with FIDE, saying he doesn’t see the point, and believes concerns about cheating at such a tightly controlled event are being exaggerated.
@dffd94345519@EndgameaiChess Ma non hai nient'altro da fare che dimostrare a un sconosciuto che non sei un bot? Se é cosi allora fai pena. Comunque sia comprendi pochissimo di scacchi
@chookchookflea@EndgameaiChess si si va bene Grande Maestro chookchookflea, intanto pure Magnus dice che è un avversario formidabile in blitz. altri super GM compresi
classico esempio di Dunning-Krueger lol, anche se sei esperto FIDE sei anni luce dal comprendere il gioco dei superGM
@chookchookflea@EndgameaiChess uno dei più forti giocatori di bullet al mondo -qualche anno fa il migliore in assoluto di gran lunga- sicuramente è un baro
vai a dormire va
@EndgameaiChess Spineless cheater complains theyre making it harder for him to cheat all the way to become the world champion. I hope the news is real and the anticheating measures are as strict as possible. This monster deserves way more scrutiny
@VBkramnik@Saqochess@TheOptimist_0@LongFormMath@GMHikaru I dont understand the point of giving them the green light to cheat. Maybe for the cheaters its just money but for the structure that allows this circus must be more than that. Making cheaters a normality and margilizing honest players only leads to the destruction of chess
@Saqochess@TheOptimist_0@LongFormMath@GMHikaru Hilaru quickly stopped, after the opening, started to confuse things according to tweets here
But Danya seeminly, according to tweets, played the whole tournament blindfoulded
If true, really something 🤣
HIKARU BREAKS THE RECORD AGAIN! 📈
In the middle of his Titled Tuesday run, @GMHikaru has officially hit the highest Blitz rating in Chess.com's history at a staggering 3408! 🤯
@VBkramnik At one point he was giving a hard time to carlsen, slowly conditioning the public that he was a player of similar strength, but I guess the permission to cheat was not always granted unconditionally. Your expose of him as a crook might have stopped all that.
