What if the earth is a chess board, and each belief system, are the chess pieces. Q mentions think chess, and 5D, so I’m thinking along 5 dimensional, if you will. So in just the US, is 1D chess. Within the north and South American continents would be 2D, etc.,

So short story, each time the battles in history are played out over mythology or religion, etc., they are 5D chess moves, due to the effect it has on the whole board. Kings had lower ranking subjects, and when pledged to the king, they fought on his command. Game of Thrones reference.

So when playing 5D chess, the moves and counter moves involve 1D-3D chess, in short taking out majority of pawns, rooks, and bishops, leaving nearly no defense but knights, (Masonic type brotherhoods), kings and queens.

Going biblically, the red Queen could be reference to Lilith/ Whore of Babylon, or Lucifer, whom lost his light, and are both referenced as red, or black in color. And Gods light shining referenced as white. Could be where we get our common colors of black and white chess pieces now.
