I'm a fucking hypocrite.

looks like I'm one of you guys.

But really, let's respect trans people.

I'll just say this:

Chris Chan was far from perfect, and she shouldn't have had intercourse with Barb (that is, if it wasn't just platonic cuddling etc., intermeshed with some "Idea Guy"/Praetor bullshit, perhaps combined with Bella sneaking in some lines over an AI voice cloning TTS program, which Chris believed altered her "Akashic record.").

However, there's nothing wrong with using SSDI, especially for people who probably wouldn't do well in the working world. If anything, I think we need a major transition away from the "old order" that punishes certain disorders and personality types in the big world. We shouldn't make cashiers stand in place, office workers sit still, or anyone (for the most part) make small talk and fit into some cultural ideal just to do their job. And we should abolish copyright, replace it with a culture that respects multiple ethics of creation, and eliminate all film permit laws for films that don't substantially interfere with the public (such as by blocking roads), in addition to radically reforming business permitation. And Wall-E is anti-post-scarcity propaganda.

Additionally, if we can protect parodies as transformative, we should also protect fan work.

We can criticize Chris Chan as a "Fat Fuck," but that ain't exactly a direct reflection on your character. You can make all the arguments of it being wasteful, offensive to some hypothetical creator, or a strain on the health system, but honestly, generic statins cost pharmaceutical companies very little to make, and the other arguments don't really hold water and seem more judgemental. And Chris isn't even that obese compared to others.

I think the "virgin with rage" and "incel" cultures pretty much only have one (1) point: the traditional protocol for gendered behavior and heterosexual relationships hurts a lot of people. It makes them scared to naturally deviate.

No one is entitled to sex from a specific individual, but for many, intimacy is a need. A culture that accepts alternative forms of intimacy, as well as alternative forms of gender presentation... and that doesn't shame people for "looking like losers" or not living up to gender expectations, would make life better. The fact that this CWCki simultaneously criticized Chris for not living up to male expectations and not living up to feminine expectations says a lot. The gender binary hurts people. Megan probably wasn't the right person for Chris anyways... but there was probably someone out there for her, and frankly, if you're happy just masturbating, that's also OK.

A person is a person, an individual, not a representative of their gender.

And I'm 50% sure a lot of Chris' issues stemmed from being put on Paxil as a young adult, as well as from almost growing up in a cultural time capsule. I.e., considering Virginia Sanford and Tiffany Gowen to be tomboys just for perhaps not being as old-fashioned as Barb. And 90% of Chris-Barb cuddling was probably purely platonic/familial. Ever given a family member a massage?

Also, who the hell knows what really went down during Chris' childhood. Were her first words since the "Abusive Babysitter" event really about go-bots? If so, why the hell was she in speech therapy? Does Chris know that the only reason why she doesn't have Asperger's is because she was diagnosed at a time in the US when you needed a speech delay to be autistic? Does she know that it would have perhaps been worse if she didn't have the delay... they'd more likely diagnose such a patient with prodromal schizophrenia, childhood psychosis, bipolar disorder, or conduct disorder... or just send them home to be bullied and squeak by school barely passing?

Also, Chris probably has ADHD in addition to autism.

Reality is, we don't know Chris. Most of us don't even know her online. Just her outputs.

Go ahead. Don't conform to gender expectations. Order that treat if you can afford it. Stim away. Make that fanfiction. Play that Nintendo game. Build that Lego project. Sing like Crystal Waters, draw like Basquiat, dance if you want to, and leave your "friends" behind.
