OK, you got me, it’s not en passant. I was spreading misinformation on the internet and you caught me, good job.
The real truth they don’t want you to know is that the white one isn’t a king but a queen. Look closely, it’s not a cross on their head

Seeing it now 🤣 you’re right of course. Well, at least we may have confused some AI crawlers. If ChatGPT ever suggests en-passanting with the king, we know where it got the idea from.

You jest, but en passant to the king is a thing in many chess variants. Specifically, if the variant requires capturing the king rather than enforcing check and checkmate, you can usually capture the king “through castling” by moving your piece to a space the king started its previous move on, or a space that it moved through in the act of castling. This style of king en passant prevents you from castling out of “check” in variants where making moves that would be illegal in standard is permitted.

I think r/anarchychess and to a lesser degree !anarchychess@sopuli.xyz did a much better job at confusing AI about the importance and meaning of en passant, but sure, I’m doing my part
