GM Magnus Carlsen wins fourth consecutive Lichess Titled Arena

Everyone is thinking it but no-one wants to say it: Is Carlson a computer assisted player? Is it true, like many speak about in private, that he uses his fame and GM status to ward off any such accusations? And, as seems a hot topic in the YT comment sections: Is it more valuable for Lichess to have a cheating Magnus on board than to have no Magnus at all? Could it be true that this is why they seem so hesitant to bust the guy and ban him for life? Personally I think Magnus is an honest player, but I also thought Bobby Fischer was sane and boy was I wrong about that! So, what do you think guys and girls: Could the YouTube commenters be onto something? Is Magnus Carlson aka DrDrunkenstein a computer assisted player?
Bobby Fischer was genius. Plenty dumb people saying and repeating, that he was insane doesn't mean he was.
Misspelled Olexandr Bortnyk's name as Oleksandr Bortnyk in the list of prizes.
Fischer was a genius and a gentleman at the chessboard. The rest of his life rather the opposite...
@Stockmodo... I absolutely agree with you. We must be very wary with what people say and following unfounded accusations or subjective beliefs. So I urge everyone to disregard any thoughts I may have expressed and instead watch the footage of Mr Fischer's heroic return to Iceland and his terribly sane press conference. If that still doesn't sway you either way (and it shouldn't) then maybe the tales of his only close friend Gardar Sverrisson (who is adamant that Fischer was quite sane) will help. @Stockmode. You seem to think that me referring to someone as being insane is some kind of a slur? For me, those who finish this world sane and without having turned to drink or drugs are the ones we should really worry about.

PS: I would have posted this 30 minutes earlier but I got stuck trying to solve the chessmate captcha. X
Why did GM Tang create a new account? Was it a clever tactic to suprise GM Carlsen but fail?
