Using “Pawn” as a Derogatory Word

“Pawn of the government” “Being used as a pawn” Specifically when using it as a comparison in chess, pawns are incredibly powerful in chess so the comparison doesn’t hold. That’s all of my bs. Bye.

  • I view a pawn as one who conforms to say a system, lets take a military as an example. Say you have the new guys coming in who know only the mindless devotion imbedded in their manipulated mind being your classic E1-E2, easily influenced by anyone of higher rank, a pawn. then you have those who have been in awhile and have ascended the brokenness of said system, this being the E3-E4 mafia of whomst have ascended said pawnship and don't conform, the true heros, hardest workers, and terminal lances. not pawns, heroes... then you have the yesmans, those E5-E6 that just want that bonus and reenlist even when the military screws them over twice but they are into that kinda thing. pawns. [spoiler]Be the hero, or stick around long enough to become the villain...[/spoiler]
