I used to volunteer with special needs adults. I have listened to a seemingly normal thirty something year old man explain that God was a translucent Shrek made out of Flubber, in full earnest. They had the exact same speaking patterns as Chris Chan. I’m sure if they had shitty parents and unrestricted internet access, 4chan trolls could convince them of a lot of shit.
Bullying a delusional and disabled person is not okay. Dedicating entire websites to bullying that person for 20 years is evil. You can contort yourself in circles trying to justify it, but what has been done to Chris Chan is horrendous harassment. Chris Chan needed to be in a care facility with no access to the internet twenty years ago.
Lord knows how the internet would have destroyed Daniel Johnston.
I think I worded things wrong I agree with this sentiment you've put it better then I ever could I think Chris chan should of been put into a halfway house or care home years ago and given the proper care and support that he needs prehaps when he settles into said halfway house his caretakers could encourage him to do stuff in his local community attend events or volunteer etc so he'll be occupied and hopefully make lifelong friends
I think most of the people whom were trolling Chris chan were in the wrong in this situation so those people directly messaging him encouraging him to do bad things
