Unfair. Moral character has nothing to do with raw talent and skill - if shitting in a bathtub so hard you damage hotel property isn’t explicitly banned in the rule book, and the people running the contest haven’t found a method to effectively drug test their athletes for anal bead usage, then I think he should get to keep his title.
After all, there’s no rule saying dogs can’t play basketball
It doesn’t have anything to do with chess. However, whatever organization is handing out these champion titles has the right to award and remove the titles as they choose. If they don’t want a bathtub-shitter as their champion spokesman, they are within their right to remove the title.
I bet that digging into the bylaws of many sports/competitions would reveal codes of conduct that participants must follow.

More to the point: one thing hs nothing to do with the other
The guy is an asshole, but that has nothing to do with chess
There may be a morals clause in whatever contract they signed. (IDK about Chinese law on the subject, though)
Nah. I am all for stripping people of their titles for acting like shitbags. We need this more in society.
What does it have to do with playing chess?

The goal is ultimately to find out who the best chess player is, and bathtub shitting has no relevance to that.
