It’s like saying you weren’t cheating when you chose to stay friends with some who actively was trying to get you to cheat. Pointing out how she enabled him, an autistic person who had made it completely obvious he would do just about anything to lose his virginity, isn’t victim blaming.

Bro I was a regular kid who looked like every other kid and still got bullied, beaten (by teachers, principal and my parents) laughed at and wasn't even allowed outside of my house or to even look through a window or be allowed to get summer jobs to get allowance (bc parents wouldn't give money to a girl anyways why would u need it. U ain't goint nowhere. While my bros got treated like princes)had no rights to have friends bc mom was against it and no communication with the outside world other than going to school. i ve seen kids who got less problems than me, and still ended up either dropping out of school and becoming delinquents or shooting up schools The autistic kids in my school who were just verbally bullied and never beaten (bc who would beat an autistic kid?) Turned out amazing. Had good lives and excelled in their studies. They weren't even being followed up by drs except for one of them which had also mental problems in addition to autism. Her dad built a private school and named it after her and made her the owner of the school. She deserves the best honestly. Such a nice girl with the biggest heart. She had a hard time reading people's emotions so she always assumed the worse out of people. That's why she dropped outta school.

I’m autistic too, and yeah, parts of this story really stand out to me within that context.

Actually in a way, they did improve, if you look at the earlier versions of characters, they were stick thin-ish, but later on as Chris life spiralled in to sexual deragement, they became more...shapely... bigger thighs, tits and other....Really, what you would expect from a person like Chris. The art style itself still looks garbage like it looked like before, but there is slightly more in the form of character designs. The sad thing here really is that this less obvious evolution has nothing to do with getting better over years, but more about Chris life spiralling out of control.

Please don’t generalize us autistics as incompetent… please. We all won’t turn out like Chris Chan 💀 we are literally just chilling. EDIT: it’s long, a lot of people misinterpreted what i said OK THIS BLEW UP. im autistic and almost 18 so my experience is obviously going to be different than someone under the age of 13 and is autistic. i agree SOME autistics need supervision, banning us from social media or the internet and having parents being controlling literally us is the opposite of what we need. high/low whatever functioning you are… there’s something very strange to me that OPs uncle and aunt are keeping their child blissfully unaware of the outside world. barely knowing what a TV streaming service is…? is very concerning to me. unless he’s like 7. if he’s 13-17 he should at least know what it is. REGARDLESS: assuming autistics on social media who get trolled like Chris Chan will end up like Chris Chan feeds into the stigma that we are incompetent babies and need to be taken care of. Chris Chan became the way she did because she was neglected, raised terribly, and was treated poorly online. this does not excuse her behavior (obviously)- she is a terrible person. unfortunately her fate could’ve been prevented if circumstances were different, but i do not have sympathy or compassion for her 😭 TDLR (i know a lot of you won’t read that dw i wouldn’t want to either): > being unaware of the world around you as an autistic = BAD > over exposure to social media when you’re under 13 w/o supervision = ALSO BAD > autistics online who get trolled ≠ same fate as chris chan

You can almost pity Chris. You can almost feel bad for him. You can almost, if I dare say so, excuse his behavior. But every time you do, he immediately whisks all that empathy away by doing something absolutely foul & you realize that you nearly bought into his charade. "He is intelligent enough to understand that he does not understand." He's most definitely aware of his actions. Don't let him fool you into ignoring this fact. EDIT: It's been a few weeks & some replies have caused me to feel the need to add an addendum. A long one, so be warned. Tom doesn't really dive into the nitty gritty of all the individuals in Chris' life path, only key figures like Megan, Liquid, his parents, etcetera. There have been many, many "trolls" that did take pity on Chris. That did want him to better himself, that desired the best for him even though they jeered & mocked him. He's received multiple speeches like the one from Megan, explaining in clear detail that he should get away from the internet, that he needs to break away from his habits to achieve the things he keeps whining that he doesn't have. Money, relationships, fame. The things he deludes himself into thinking he has. & every single time. Without fail. Chris ignored them. & dumped their advice in the trash. Chris isn't a child. He is an adult. A disabled one, sure. But one that is capable of functioning & *chooses* not to. Chris is a product of his parents, most definitely. But he is also a product of himself. He *chose* to log in to his computer, day in & day out to act as the personal dancing monkey to a bunch of strangers on the internet. He *chose* not to work, he *chose* not to go to counselling or seek professional help. Above all, Chris-Chan is egotistical. He doesn't seek to better himself not because he doesn't know how. But because he thinks himself above it. He thinks he's his best self already. You can feel bad for him. You can feel he's worthy of empathy, I personally think he's not. But you may have more heart than I do. But you cannot pretend that everything bad that had happened to him, he didn't walk into aware of the consequences but thought himself above them or stronger than them. Just keep away from him. If you're unlucky enough to bump into him. Don't let however you feel about him overturn your logic & interact with him. Just let him be, he's gone through enough. Thank you for reading.

I always liken Chris to someone thrown into a bakery with no cooking experience and then everyone laughs and scolds him for being terrible at it. So many of the issues with Chris could have mitigated with proper counseling and education for his disability. "Chris knows better." But does he REALLY? It seems people like to really cherry pick Chris's abilities and mental state. I'm not defending Chris, but the idea that he's mostly responsible just never sits right with me. Shit's fucked.

[@RedLion502]

@@LateNightTableCo agreed. I know people really really tried to get through to him but it really seems like there’s a serious disconnect that he just can’t seem understand his role in things or how just because he wants something to desperately be real even though it hurts him he keeps going back to it. His parents and local government really let him down when he should have gotten the counseling and help he needed when he was growing up. It’s just messed up all around and nothing good was going come from this situation unfortunately.

I've seen this phenomenon in action before. Mentally handicapped people are not stupid by any means, some of them can be extremely smart and even know how to manipulate society's feelings. I have an actual example. Back in 2019 I joined the California Conservation Corps, and we got a guy that came onto our crew named Oleg who had downs syndrome. Now he wasn't dumb by any stretch of the imagination, he was actually really good with computers and knew how to work all kinds of video editing software. However he was high-functioning enough to know that people treated him differently because of his disability and he would intentionally use that to his advantage to get away with all kinds of stuff. You could see him smirking to himself whenever the crew would get reprimanded for accusing him of something and he'd play dumb to get off scott-free.

[@jadedkratos5528]

Take that back. We all have our issues and we can either choose to go with the flow or to end it at any point and move on, however Chris Chan made the decision for himself to go down the path he took and must suffer the consequences of his actions. Who cares that he's autistic, so am I but I haven't done anything stupid, dangerous or illegal yet.... If you think his upbringing was bad [chuckles] you'd probably question your sanity if you knew barely a fraction of my childhood or went through it. I went through things that would usually cause people to become a drug addict, an alcoholic, suicidal or well be 6 feet under but I am still here with my sanity somewhat intact.

[@hodonyassin9760]

I need to get this off my chest: I had probably the same problems as Chris Chan when I was a child. Like him, I’m also autistic and couldn’t process basic sentences until I was around 12-13 years old. Because of this, I had trouble making friends and turned to TV shows (mainly live-action children’s shows/cartoons) to cope with my loneliness. At the time, I didn’t know all of it was all fictional and due to my autism, my brain was wired WAY differently than a lot of people. I stated to believe that everything on the tv was real and began based my whole life on what I learned from tv shows. I started to make videos from my iPad with my own drawings and characters based on people I knew irl. As I mentioned before, I didn’t had any friends and due to my autism and little knowledge of friendship, I started to believe that every child that inspired the characters in my videos were my best friends. The more I believed this lie, the more crazier I became. While I did make friends from kids my own age later on, the kids that inspired my characters were I could think about. Yes, I know that all sounds stupid, pathetic and weird, but at the time, it was the only way for me to cope with my loneliness. This lasted for almost two years until I started high school. Then, I was super psych to be reunited with all of my “friends.” But when I approached each of them with a friendly hello, I ended up getting the opposite response than what I was looking for. These kids were not the people I expected them to be; they were in fact, very mean, rude, and selfish assholes. Many of these kids glare at me, iced me out, spread lies about me, etc. I gotta tell ya, it was absolutely horrible; not only did I make a complete and total fool of myself, but I wasted the last two years of my life on a false hope. I was also severely bullied for my disability, even by people whom I thought were my friends. After that, I was very miserable and didn’t make any videos later on. Because of my unhappiness, I started to act out in front of my family and at school and mistreat other people, so much so I was almost expelled! Luckily, thanks to my loving parents, I ended up seeing a therapist who got me out of the rut I was in and I started to feel a little better about myself. Later on, I made some new friends (a few whom I still talk to), my grades improved and I made up with my family. I’m now in my 20s and now studying at one of the best colleges in my state, and it’s classes I aced last semester. I’ve recently found out that the TV shows I worshiped were fake and only created for money and ratings. This really hit me hard and I had trouble processing everything. I’m better now, but I’ve decided not to work in making TV shows anymore; I’ve taken up sewing and fashion, and it’s really been taking off. While I do have friends now, I’m nowhere near as obsessive and clingy as I used to be. I don’t know where my former classmates who bullied or rejected me are now, but if you ask me, I could care less. I guess the moral of the story is don’t believe what you see on TV because it’s all fictional and only created for ratings and entertainment and don’t believe in false hopes, because chances are you’ll only be disappointed. If Chris Chan got the love and help he needed, he’d probably wouldn’t do all the horrible things he’s done and got arrested. Anyway, thanks for reading and have a great day! 😊 Edit: I’m currently 22 and am just finishing up my semester! I have more friends now that share my interests! I’m also working on going to a fashion camp at CCAD and working on new creations. ❤

I also was terminally online with undiagnosed autism, my story is similar to yours. I was too into MMORPGs and growing up with Tumblr was awful for myself because I thought the people I've met online were a portrayal of the rest of the world 😭 Life gotten stressful after I moved out to dorm at university, I understand now looking back I was not ready to make that decision. There were too many changes and I should've asked for a reduce course load as accommodation (the Quarterly schedule, Chaos, lack of social skills was a lot to take in). It was only after I left college on Leave of Absence that I actually was able to get my shit together and pull myself out of Misery. My friends and family were great support base and working a graveyard shift with my co-workers (they are very understanding and kind) that I was able to expand my world more. They helped me with social training that my autism needed. Things are better- better than they were in the past. I hope things are well for you too. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees their problems the same as Chris. Theres always hope, and if theres no hope, theres always change. Happiness is fought for. Good luck!

Sometimes they would also kneel on their face or chest. It was used on kids with anger issues, reactive attachment styles, and autism. I watched a true crime documentary where some people did this to a child with anger issues and autism and they ended up accidentally smothering her to death. Absolutely horrific.

You may also notice, if you pay close attention to his behavioral patterns, that Chris not only seems incapable of original thought and actual creativity (copying tropes and ideas he sees and experiences verbatim without really understanding the context behind them), but he also seems incapable of expressing genuine emotion, except anger. It's not autism. It's diagnosed psychopathy. All the emotional displays in his videos are completely fake and performative. He talks like he's reciting a script, because he basically is. He's copying and pasting tropes from things he's seen, and tries to equate it to how he THINKS people act when they're happy, sad, or angry. It's why he acts like a sentient live-action cartoon 99% of the time. It's all he knows how to do to get what he wants. The only time we ever see him convey a sincere emotion is when he gets genuinely angry. We've never actually seen him become truly sorrowful or joyful. It implies heavily that the person beneath all that performative display is either an animal, or a real psychopath.

When I was I was a kid I was big into sonic and had many friends that enjoyed sonic and they first told me about Chris Chan. Many people on the internet were dedicated to destroying his life at that and continue on wards. I don’t think he did anything bad at that time, he was just cringy and everyone wanted blood. You don’t have to worry about becoming like him. I’ve met many success people with autism.

Dont worry, you did not become like him you are putting your professional goals in front of Video Games in terms of Priorities and there are MANY Autistic People who PROVED that Autistim is just the term for being EVER SO slightly more unique than average

[@michaelbugner7011]

I don't think it's video games. Just a huge lack of concern for anything else. I love video games. It's really the only thing I enjoy doing. But I still have a full time job and can be responsible.

The fact that you at least have the awareness of your issues makes you leagues better than Chris-chan

[@mw2noobever]

Chris Chan is the physical embodiment of a car crash. It’s sad, horrifying, and messy but you can’t look away. He is an incredible specimen, the likes of which we will never see again. It’s hard to articulate how much of a fantastic monster Chris is

[@jmwilsoND]

He's a semi-truck jackknifing on a highway during a winter storm after totalling a schoolbus full of special needs children causing another semi-truck transporting countless organ transplants to flip, losing power and spoiling all organs and when we all thought it was over another semi-truck ran into and killed all first responders causing a similar course of events multiple times over... and of course you can't help but stop and watch

It's kinda scary how close I could've been another Chris-Chan. I thankfully went through early intervention therapy for my autism, which has helped immensely.

[@SirJoelsuf1]

Yeah same here. Didn't do any intervention therapy stuff, just had buddies who cared enough for me to call me out on whatever dumb sh1t I was doing. I'm kinda glad I actually didn't go through any intervention therapy, probably would have inflated my ego even more...especially in my youth where I literally thought there was a growing conspiracy against me.

Autism doesn’t make you into a horrible person, but constant bullying does
