Talk:Enablers

Sections

I still believe the sections "Why you shouldn't be enabling Chris" and "Motives" should be their own section, as they were primarily meant to be for enablers of all creeds. PsychoNerd054 (talk) 18:58, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

There are different types of enablers, though. It's murky if motives/criticism for them are mixed together into one section. Like in the current article, all but two of the sections extensively reference manipulating Chris's fantasies, and the only reference to financial enabling is in one standalone section. Also, I feel that the article could be more neutral in tone and shouldn't directly refer to readers (like with the "you" in section titles), that's why I renamed it to Criticism.

Are the Guard Dogs and Region Ten psychiatrist enablers?

The Guard Dogs tried to protect Chris, but their actions could be described as enabling. From the examples in this list, they took on more than their share of responsibilities, and ignored problematic behavior (in Guard Dog chats where they ignored Chris's attempts to steer the topic to his fantasyland). There's also the fact that The Captain had to manipulate Chris's fantasies in order to get him to trust them. The Region Ten psychiatrist similarly ignored Chris's ranting about his fantasyland and handwaved him through the program instead of intervening.
