    I think time will tell. Olympic has to evolve with what kind of events will build bridges across different social spaces. The whole counter cultural turn is based on that premise.

    Esports non because there is no enough history behind it and it’s clearly not at the moment universal.

    But chess clearly deserve it, competitiv, very old, played in all the world. 0 reasons to not accept it but to accept things like shooting.
