'''A-Logging''' is a term used to describe one expressing disproportionate levels of hatred for Chris, often including wishing him physical harm, usually for perceived "crimes" that Chris is "guilty" of. The people who do this are known as '''A-Logs''', and are considered at the other end of the spectrum from [[white knight]]s; where white knights try to defend Chris from [[trolls]] and help him to improve his situation, A-Logs hold the belief that Chris is deserving of whatever scorn and harm he is subjected to, and then some. A-Logs are sometimes interchangeably referred to as [[weens]], as many A-Logs also tend to be weens and vice-versa, although weening has a different meaning to A-Logging, namely unfunny or failed attempts at trolling Chris. While once fashionable, A-Logging has become associated with people trying to "trollshield" themselves, like the original A-Log, and therefore is looked down upon by Christorians.
'''A-Logging''', named after noted [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris-Chan]] critic '''Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto''', is a term used to describe the act of overplaying or exaggerating the negative traits of someone lulzy at irrational levels. This often (but not always) includes expressing disproportionate levels of hatred for someone and/or wishing physical harm on them, usually for perceived "crimes" that they are "guilty" of. A-logging also typically involves comparing oneself to someone noticeably lulzy or dysfunctional, and claiming that they're not as incompetent as said lulzy person.  


The term originates from '''Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto''', a [[YouTube]]r who is known for making what can charitably be called "commentaries" on Chris. Commentary videos are meant to refute bad points and offer opinions on an opposing view; what A-Log did was make videos where he reacted to Chris, pointed out the obvious, and went on tangents about how Chris is an awful person (and how he, A-Log, is better) who needs to have harm inflicted upon him. However, A-Log's monomania led trolls to wonder what he was trying to hide, leading to them doing a bit of research on him. The result was that A-Log became known as "Chris-Chan 2.0" because, as it happened, he had many, ''many'' faults similar to Chris himself, [[Hypocrisy|and could easily be considered worse than Chris]]. Among other things, he is a furry, has made terrible erotic fanfiction, is doing a laughable college radio show (from which he was almost fired after being caught [[Mass debating|watching]] [[Bob Walks In|porn]] in the studio), was the subject of a leaked video of him doing a painfully bad stand-up routine, and much, much more. Ultimately, A-Log became subject to trolling himself, and is the inspiration for this very term. At one point, A-Log even received his own wiki called the "Logattopedia", which was relatively short-lived and unpopular. He also spawned the phrase "Hi, A-Log!", used to mock A-Logs and other Internet "tough guys".
People who are suspected of doing this are often referred to as '''"A-Logs"''' or '''"A-Loggers"''', and are considered at the other end of the spectrum from [[white knight]]s; where white knights try to defend Chris from [[trolls]] and help him to improve his situation, A-Logs hold the belief that Chris is deserving of whatever scorn and harm he is subjected to, and then some.


==Features of A-Logging==
While once fashionable, especially when Chris was a relatively new internet phenomenon, A-Logging has become associated with people trying to "trollshield" themselves, like the original A-Log, and therefore is looked down upon by Christorians. The shocking revelations that came to light during the [[Affair with Mother|Incest Saga]] saw A-Logging come back into vogue to some degree, though actively wishing death or physical harm upon Chris is still considered by many to be crossing the line.
There are a few qualities which are common in A-Logs, and many of them can be seen in the original A-Log's commentaries.


===Justifications for trolling Chris===
==Etymology==
Some would argue that it is sinister and just plain wrong to mock a mentally deficient person such as Chris. A-Logs therefore try to justify trolling him by arguing that, regardless of his [[autism]] and other undiagnosed problems, he has shown that he is a bad person who "deserves" to be trolled. Many A-Logs are themselves autistic, and they can often be heard making arguments along the lines of Chris "giving autistics a bad name." Others will appeal to his many instances of bigotry (most of them debatable) as reasons to troll Chris. By establishing that Chris is a bad person, it seems to justify that Chris not only deserves the treatment he currently receives, but also deserves physical and/or psychological harm inflicted on him.


While Chris has done some horrible things, including [[October_2013_Facebook_Posts#Megagi_La_Skunk_agrees_that_you_should_have_never_been_born|cursing his ex-friend for trolling him]] (which of course, she didn't) and [[28 October 2011|hitting a game store owner with his car]], it is still somewhat ironic that A-Logs think the best recourse is to wish him death and curse him back. Not to mention, they tend to ignore the factors that led Chris to behave in this way--unsurprisingly, unbridled malevolence is never one of them, as discussed in further detail below.
{{Protip|This article is about the term "A-Logging", not about Anthony LoGatto himself. This section is only meant to provide context to why this aspect of the [[Unholy Quintet]] is named after him. If you want to read an article about LoGatto and his hypocritical campaign against Chris, alongside other shenanigans, then you should go read his [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] page [https://dramatica.online/index.php/Anthony_%27A-Log%27_LoGatto here].}}


===Trollshielding===
{{Infobox Person
Often times, people who A-Log Chris do so to "[https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/Troll_Shielding trollshield]", that is, to avoid becoming subject to trolling themselves. Like A-Log himself, they tend to have many traits in common with Chris; they generally have an autism spectrum disorder, still live with their parents well into adulthood, are unemployed and/or are living off welfare, are sexually frustrated virgins, have trouble socializing and forming relationships, and/or are fixated on cartoons, toys and other things that most people their age would have little interest in beyond their nostalgic value. Some perhaps have even more faults than Chris, especially bizarre fetishes, as seen in the case of A-Log himself. However, A-Logs will argue that at least they are "not like Chris" and are fervent in their vitriolic condemnations of Chris so that people don't troll them instead. More often than not, as in the case of the original A-Log, this backfires and they find themselves becoming the subject of trolling.

==Arguments against A-Logging==
Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/user/ottagol1985/ A-Log's YouTube account]</ref> is a [[YouTube]]r and "voice actor" who is known for making what can charitably be called "commentaries" on Chris. Commentary videos are meant to refute bad points and offer opinions on an opposing view; what A-Log did was make videos where he reacted to Chris, pointed out the obvious, and went on tangents about how Chris is an awful person (and how he, A-Log, is better) who needs to have harm inflicted upon him. However, A-Log's monomania led trolls to wonder what he was trying to hide, leading to them doing a bit of research on him.
While Chris is far from perfect, it is generally accepted that calling for him to be harmed or abused like A-Logs do merely legitimizes Chris's sense of victimization, and makes the A-Logs themselves look sociopathic and unbalanced.


===Chris is not Hitler===
The result was that A-Log became known as "Chris-Chan 2.0" because, as it happened, he had many, ''many'' faults similar to Chris himself, [[Hypocrisy|and could easily be considered worse than Chris]]. Among other things, he is a furry porn connoisseur, has made terrible erotic fanfiction, is doing a laughable college radio show (from which he was almost fired after being caught [[Mass debating|watching]] [[Bob Walks In|porn]] in the studio), was the subject of a leaked video of him doing a painfully bad stand-up routine, and much, much more. Ultimately, A-Log became subject to trolling himself, and is the inspiration for this very term. At one point, A-Log even received his own wiki called the "Logattopedia"<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130403082245/http://logattopedia.wikinet.org/wiki/Main_Page Main Page - Logattopedia]</ref>, which was relatively short-lived and unpopular. He also spawned the phrase "Hi, A-Log!", used to mock A-Logs and other Internet "tough guys".
While the [[CWCki]] certainly doesn't vindicate any of the bad or stupid things Chris has done, what A-Logs ''must'' understand is that Chris, while he may not exactly be a likable person, isn't guilty of "crimes" that must be punished with violence or abuse. We really shouldn't need to point out that Chris being compared to people like Saddam Hussein and Adolf Hitler is at best hyperbolic, and at worst, utter insanity. Hitler was responsible for the death of nearly 11 million civilians during World War II.<ref>[http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/36qs.html 36 Questions & Answers About the Holocaust]</ref> Hussein actively persecuted and murdered almost 200,000 Kurds and Shiite Muslims.<ref>[http://civilliberty.about.com/od/internationalhumanrights/p/saddam_hussein.htm]</ref> Chris's antics hardly compare to the atrocities committed by two feared and reviled dictators; he's just a gullible idiot who spends his time trying to hit on women (very badly) and make them his [[sweetheart]]s, [[Tomgirl|crossdressing]], and playing [[vidya]].


While he ''is'' quite prone to [[rage]] and has a noted tendency to wish [[Curse-ye-ha-me-ha|very unpleasant]] [[death threats|things]] on those who wrong him, it should be plain to see that he is simply too lazy, weak, cowardly and incompetent to actually carry out whatever he threatens. After all, do you really think a man who [[Don't Mess With Me|has to spend nine seconds to open a Swiss Army knife]] is capable of killing anyone? Plus, there's only [[The GAMe PLACe#Chris's Attitude at the GAMe PLACe|one extant account]] of him even getting close to fighting someone, and in that instance, he pussied out, so it seems that even Chris himself knows that there could only be [[Kick the Autistic|one outcome]] if he ever tried to get violent with anyone. Moreover, when taking Chris's childlike mental state into account, it's also quite possible he doesn't fully understand the gravity of what he wishes upon people when making death threats, especially when he's blinded by anger.
==Features of A-Logging==


Chris is also known to exact violent retribution from those who have wronged him in his fictional works, which A-Logs tend to use as evidence of him being evil or psychopathic. For example, he is known to have beaten up representations of his real-life enemies in ''[[Soul Calibur]]'', and subjected some of them to particularly gruesome deaths in the ''[[Sonichu 8|Sonichu]]'' [[Sonichu 10|comics]]. However, not only are these gory episodes in [[CWCville]] isolated incidents, but again, one must remember that he is resorting to this because he is sensible enough to realize that he could not do this in real life, due to his own weakness and because he knows he'll be punished for it, which is, in itself, an encouraging sign. Moreover, even if this were taken to be evidence of a violent streak, it does not merit abuse or punishment because obviously, he hasn't actually hurt anyone except fictional characters in video games and homemade comics. While violent fantasies like these ''do'' merit anger management classes and/or a few sessions with a psychiatrist, they are ''not'' a green light for A-Logs to demonize Chris; he's mentally ill, and as such needs help, not hate. In addition, while acting out violence in fictional settings is more common among autistic people, it isn't uncommon in the population as a whole; many people find escapism in doing so.
There are a few qualities which are common in A-Logs, and many of them can be seen in the original A-Log's commentaries.


Even compared to many other infamous Internet personalities, Chris is actually fairly benign. While many A-Logs tend to justify their actions by arguing Chris could someday act on his fantasies and commit violence or even rape, they tend to forget about people who have actually done those things. For perspective, fellow lolcow [https://lolcow.wiki/wiki/Vade Vade] is widely believed to have intentionally caused her boyfriend to commit suicide in order to gain sympathy on Tumblr. She then used this sympathy to build a sizable legion of followers who would spam any Tumblr user Vade deemed offensive or unworthy, for a time she practically ruled the site like a micro-dictatorship. Yet for some reason, countless A-Logs direct their scorn at Chris even though his purported violent and authoritarian fantasies have remained exactly that.
===Justifications for trolling Chris===
Some would argue that it is sinister and just plain wrong to mock a mentally deficient person such as Chris. A-Logs therefore try to justify trolling him by arguing that, regardless of his [[autism]] and other undiagnosed problems, he has shown that he is a bad person who "deserves" to be trolled. Some A-Logs are themselves autistic (or at least claim to be so), and they can often be heard making arguments along the lines of Chris "giving autistics a bad name." Others will appeal to his many instances of bigotry (most of them debatable) as reasons to troll Chris. By establishing that Chris is a bad person, it seems to justify that Chris not only deserves the treatment he currently receives, but also deserves physical and/or psychological harm inflicted on him.


A-Logs also tend to turn to the [[October 2011]] [[GAMe PLACe]] incident to try and portray Chris as a truly violent individual. More likely than not, Chris's actions on that day were the result of his mother's influence, his non-existent driving skills, and sheer blind panic rather than outright malevolence.<ref>[[28 October 2011#Email?|"Mom took the wheel"]]</ref><ref>[[DayOut|Chris exhibits poor judgement while driving]]</ref> Likewise, Chris's decision to visit a local [[GameStop]] he was banned from [[26 December 2014|and subsequently macing an employee]] who tried to get him to leave were not the product of malevolence on Chris's part. It was caused by Chris's [[Chris and reality|assumption]] that he would be allowed in because he was [[Honor roll|in disguise]], and [[Ego|because he]] [[Autism|had decided]] that his ban didn't apply because he was there to buy, not to [[Sonic Boom Protests|vandalize merchandise]], which had got him banned in the first place. Additionally, the leaked video of the incident shows Chris merely spraying at the employee's shirt rather than his face, which lends credence to Chris's own account that he was simply issuing a warning shot in case the employee tried to detain him, or merely spraying in his general direction as a parting, [[Tomgirl|sassy]] "fuck you" to the staff, not trying to actually harm the man. All in all, the GameStop incident was caused not by a violent streak, but rather by Chris's persistent habit of trying to circumnavigate rules when they inconvenience him, and his tendency to forget the consequences of his actions.
While Chris is definitely not a good person and has done some horrible things, including [[October_2013_Facebook_Posts#Megagi_La_Skunk_agrees_that_you_should_have_never_been_born|cursing his ex-friend for trolling him]] (which of course, she didn't), [[28 October 2011|hitting a game store owner with his car]], [[26 December 2014|macing an innocent Gamestop assistant manager]], and [[Affair_with_Mother|having sex with his own mother]], it is still somewhat ironic that A-Logs think the best recourse is to wish him death and curse him back. Not to mention, they tend to ignore the many factors that led Chris to behave in this way--unsurprisingly, unbridled malevolence is never one of them, as discussed in further detail below.


===There's no legal defense over attacking Chris for real===
===Trollshielding===
Perhaps the best reason against A-Logging is the legal liability (i.e. being charged with and possibly convicted for stalking, terroristic threats, assault, or a myriad of other possible charges). Whatever feelings you may have against Chris, there is no legal defense for taking the law into your own hands, and chances are you will end up with a [[Idea Guy|life-changing felony conviction]]. In addition to this, part of the charm of watching Chris is in his eternal rage over a nonexistent enemy. Committing actual violence would only legitimize Chris's victim complex, and likewise would, in such a circumstance, make ''you'' the villain.


===Chris's beliefs are simply ignorant, not supremacist===
Often times, people who A-Log Chris do so to "trollshield", that is, to avoid becoming subject to trolling themselves. Like A-Log himself, they tend to have many traits in common with Chris; they generally have an autism spectrum disorder, still live with their parents well into adulthood (which is somewhat more justified now due to the instability of the housing market in the United States compared to when Chris graduated), are unemployed and/or are living off welfare, are [[Virgin with rage|sexually-frustrated virgins]], have trouble socializing and forming relationships, and/or are fixated on cartoons, toys and other things that most people their age would have little interest in beyond their nostalgic value. Some perhaps have even more faults than Chris, especially bizarre fetishes, as seen in the case of A-Log himself. However, A-Logs will argue that at least they are "not like Chris" and are fervent in their vitriolic condemnations of Chris so that people don't troll them instead. More often than not, as in the case of the original A-Log, this backfires and they find themselves becoming the subject of trolling.
While Chris has held some politically incorrect, even bigoted opinions in the past, they hardly seem to suggest Chris is an amoral monster. One must consider that Chris was raised by and has spent his entire life around [[Borb|two elderly, disturbed rednecks]]. Of ''course'' he has socially unacceptable beliefs on controversial topics such as race and sexuality--they were given to him by people whose every word he has unquestioningly accepted since he was young.


Aside from this, Chris's discomfort around black people likely has more to do with [[Bob]]'s influence and his own failure to understand social norms. Chris simply doesn't understand that one does not publicly announce they are discomforted by African-Americans; this is far from the outright ideology of white supremacy that your average neo-Nazi would have. Chris has no history of actually going out and lynching blacks or other minorities that discomfort him. Chris's notable offenses have been applying stereotypes to and picking on the black kids who defeated him in [[TCGs]] at the GAMe PLACe, as well as using "Jew" as a pejorative against [[Michael Snyder]], who Chris inaccurately thinks is Jewish, and taking photos of an elderly black woman who was giving him "a hard time" and putting it on Facebook without her permission. One of Chris's grievances, if you can call it that, is that non-white women don't fit his ideal vision of a [[sweetheart]], which he constantly fails to properly articulate; it is entirely possible for a non-racist white man to not be sexually attracted to non-white women. Chris has also used the racial slur of "nigger" in a few of his means of communication, though he shows some degree of reservation where he uses this word. During the [[Lars Call]], Chris showed great apprehension towards using the word "nigga" and only did so when Lars gave him implicit permission. One of the most famous instances of Chris's use of the word "nigger" is in his video confronting [[Surfshack Tito]] on his trolling efforts.<ref>[[Chris Drops the N-Bomb#Video|On camera use of the word "nigger"]]</ref> In this video, Chris's racism is often found humorous as Tito is Hawaiian, not black. Moreover, Chris's usage of the word in [[Don't Trust Any Homos Over There]] is the result of it being an adaptation of a song from the racially-charged show ''[[Adult Swim|The Boondocks]]'', and pure laziness to change every racist part in the song to homophobic parts. When one examines Chris's use of the word, he does not show any understanding of the complexity, history, proper context, or underlying implications of the slur.<ref>[[Surfshack Tito E-mails|Chris's liberal use of "nigger"]]</ref> He simply repeats it blindly as he knows that it is edgy and offensive to black people.
===Standing up for groups that Chris misrepresents===


In regards to his homophobia, while his reasons are ill-informed at best, again, Bob is the likely source of Chris's dislike of homosexuals,<ref>[[Matthew Noble call#Transcript|"[...]conspired together with a couple of other people- kids there that I think were gay[...]"]]</ref><ref>[[Tomboys And Tomgirls of Virginia#Re: Coming out to my parents|"[...]and my father threw the damned "fag" card at me."]]</ref> not to mention the fact that Chris has had very little friendly interaction with ''anyone'', never mind true homosexuals. It is also worth noting that trolls are at least partially to blame for his hatred of homosexuals, as they would often pretend to be homosexuals, or spam his websites with homoerotic images, to get under his skin, not to mention that they often pretended to be black for the same reasons. As a result, Chris, in his autism, began to believe that all trolls are gay black men, thus cementing his disdain for both homosexuals and black people, as he thought they were responsible for the trolling he was subject to. A-Logs also like to appeal to his attempts to "cure all the homos" with a vaccine made with his blood in the comics as proof positive of his homophobia. While this may be so, it is often seen as unintentionally funny by Christorians--not only because it shows his ignorance of science, but also because vaccines are made with dead cells infected with the disease they are curing--meaning that Chris unknowingly implied that he was gay. In short, Chris is ''not'' the Westboro Baptist Church--he doesn't go around picketing the funerals of dead gays, nor is he head of a power-lobbying group against LGBT individuals in Washington. He's just a redneck who's too indoctrinated by his parents and unused to minorities, or the concept of people being different to him, to know better.
Another misguided aspect of A-Logging is the idea that bashing Chris is somehow to the benefit for marginalized groups that Chris is a part of, most notably [[Autism|autistic]] and [[transgender]] people. The argument behind this, in an A-Logger's eyes, is that it needs to be pointed out that Chris does not provide an accurate representation of those kinds of people and their communities, and that as such, he needs to be ostracized. Of course, doing so is to little benefit of the groups that are actively being oppressed and instead comes across as a flimsy excuse to aim at low-hanging fruit rather than to do something genuinely worthwhile to helping those kinds of communities. It should go without saying that making fun of or directly harassing a mentally-ill weirdo on the internet is not going to help anyone's cause.


It is also worth noting that with Bob gone, and [[Barb]] soon to follow, Chris has begun to emerge from his parents' influence, and has back-pedalled on his bigotry towards minorities. In particular, Chris has begun to express his desire to become a lesbian transwoman, and has accordingly publicly apologized for his old bigotry towards homosexuals, first on Facebook, and later [[Apology for past homophobic comments and homophobia.|in a YouTube video]], and he has become a staunch supporter of LGBTIQ rights. He has even been attending [[Impulse Gay Social Club|gay bars]], the one thing he said he'd never do.
==Arguments against A-Logging==
[[File:A-Logging in nutshell.jpg|thumb|left|A-Logging in a nutshell. You don't even need to watch the video in question; the title and thumbnail are enough.]]


===Chris just cannot get a job===
While Chris is, to put it ''very'' mildly, far from perfect, it is generally accepted that calling for him to be harmed or abused like A-Logs do merely legitimizes Chris's sense of victimization, and makes the A-Logs themselves look sociopathic and unbalanced.
Some A-Logs contend that Chris is a bad person because he "steals" [[taxpayer money]]. What is almost always overlooked by A-Logs who make this claim is that it wasn't Chris who applied for social security disability; it was Bob who applied for it and convinced Chris that he would make more from disability benefits than working at a minimum wage job. Realistically, Chris didn't have any say in the matter because Bob was the head of the house, and as such it was at his whim that Chris had food, shelter and clothing.  


So why doesn't Chris "get off his lazy butt and earn his keep"? Well, because there are a couple of very difficult barriers that stand in his way that many A-Logs simply don’t take into consideration.
===Chris is not a Hitler-level monster===
We really shouldn't need to point out that, while Chris is guilty of actions that could be considered [[Song for Jackie.MOV|foolish]], [[26 December 2014|immoral]], or [[Affair with Mother|downright reprehensible]], being compared to people like Adolf Hitler or Saddam Hussein is at best hyperbolic, and at worst, utter insanity. Hitler was responsible for the death of nearly 11 million civilians during World War II.<ref>[http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/36qs.html 36 Questions & Answers About the Holocaust]</ref>
Hussein actively persecuted and murdered almost 200,000 Kurds and Shiite Muslims.<ref>[http://civilliberty.about.com/od/internationalhumanrights/p/saddam_hussein.htm The War Crimes of Iraq's Saddam Hussein]</ref> Chris's antics, depraved as some of them may have been, hardly compare to the atrocities committed by two feared and reviled dictators; for much of his life he was just a gullible idiot who spent his time trying to hit on women (very badly) and make them his [[sweetheart]]s, [[Tomgirl|crossdressing]], and playing [[vidya]].
 
The revelations relating to the Incest Saga caused many A-Logs, both past and present, to crow that they had been right about Chris all along, and that anyone who had defended or tried to aid Chris to any degree during the past decade-and-a-half was guilty of [[White Knight]]ing him and enabling his actions. While we won't argue that Chris's actions towards [[Barbara Chandler|his infirm mother]] are totally indefensible, it should be noted that Chris's prior criminal activities largely consisted of things such as [[Get-Tar Region|public disorder]], traffic violations, [[List of places that have banned Chris|trespassing]], and [[26 December 2014|petty assault]]. Arguably the worst thing that he had previously done was [[28 October 2011|his hit-and-run on]] [[Michael Snyder]], and even then, the court appeared to view Barb as the primary guilty party in the whole affair, judging by her getting the heavier sentence of the two. It's no exaggeration to say that there's a massive leap in severity between any of Chris's prior crimes and what he is currently accused of, and while many Christorians may have been [[naive]] as to the extent of his depravity, A-Logs can hardly use actions no-one could have reasonably foreseen as justification for their behavior.
 
===There's no legal defense over attacking Chris for real===
We really should not need to tell you that inflicting, or threatening to inflict harm on Chris is nothing short of being illegal. Perhaps the best reason against A-Logging is the legal liability (i.e. being charged with and possibly convicted for stalking, terroristic threats, assault, or a myriad of other possible charges). Whatever feelings you may have against Chris, there is no legal defense for taking the law into your own hands, and chances are you will end up with a [[Idea Guys|life-changing felony conviction]]. In addition to this, part of the charm of watching Chris is in his eternal rage over a nonexistent enemy. Committing actual violence would only legitimize Chris's victim complex, and likewise would, in such a circumstance, make ''you'' the villain.


First, there is the bureaucratic red tape and regulations involved in someone working full-time while receiving disability benefits. Ironically, it isn't Chris sitting around playing video games day after day while living on government handouts that would likely get him in trouble for disability fraud, it would be working full-time at a minimum wage job while still getting a disability check that would get him in trouble.
===Like A-Log, you can make yourself a target if you try too hard===
Chris ''does'' share traits with a lot of people, and some of these traits are quite disturbing and embarrassing. It's a fair assumption that a lot of people who follow Chris's antics are unemployed losers on the internet, for example. A lot of people have seen Chris and uttered in their minds "Finally, here's someone who's more pathetic than ''I'' am!"... But make no mistake, that is a ''very'' low bar to clear. If you extensively go into how much you hate Chris and try to insert yourself into his shenanigans, the same people that you're attempting to impress will likely consider looking into your own shortcomings.


Second, there is the issue of Chris's lack of preparation for independent living, as well as his lack of coaching in finding a job and being able to keep it. Moreover, given the existence of this wiki, and the fact that it is standard these days for employers to Google potential employees, it would more likely than not take someone working in human services or in the employment field (that has ''extremely'' good connections) and a job coach (on a long-term basis) to convince a skeptical employer to give Chris a realistic chance at successfully getting and keeping a job. In addition, given Chris's rap sheet, even under ideal circumstances Chris's chances at decent employment may be slim at best. Chris has been convicted for the events of 28 October 2011 and 26 December 2014, which would deter potential employers, regardless of his ability to perform to tasks they set him. While it may sound attractive to the uninformed to "[[Kick the Autistic|kick his ass]]" when it comes to Chris working, in reality there are deep-seated issues that go way beyond the expertise of a few trolls, and no amount of A-Logging can change this.
As much as Chris is far from being likable, responding to his every move with unconditional hatred can make you come off as being just as much a target, if not more so, than him. Saying that you are better than Chris is not at all impressive, especially when you take into consideration just how much Chris fails at everything he does. Therefore, you should not be using someone else’s character flaws in order to justify and excuse your own. This is especially true if that very same person has no bearing on your life as a whole, and are only comparing yourself to a relatively well-known lolcow to feel a little less shitty in comparison.


===Chris is just an idiot===
Before you fall into the fallacy of believing that vociferously condemning Chris will save you from his fate, remember that having embarrassing traits like Chris's ''doesn't'' automatically make you subject to the sort of trolling Chris has had. It ''may'' make you subject to ridicule, but what's more important is how ''you'' respond to the ridicule. You could be like Chris and get [[Chris Calls Clyde Out|BLANGRY]] at every traitorous troll under lucricities, and give the trolls power over you just like Chris did. Or you could laugh with them at your faults, or even just ignore them and go about your business. Trolls generally aren't interested in people they can't coax a reaction out of. All in all, if you don't want to end up like him, A-Logging isn't the way to do it. But avoiding the myriad of mistakes Chris and A-Log made is.
Chris is not mentally retarded as defined by medical standards and [[Exposing Jeff|as he claims]]. His IQ is within normal range. What trips him up is his lack of common sense. He actually believed that an [[Vanessa Hudgens|attractive celebrity]] was interested in him sexually and that he was talking to her. He used to insist that he'd had many [[sweethearts]], all very attractive women, and never seemed to find it curious that they all either died, disappeared, or were unmasked as trolls. He is an easy mark, not a criminal mastermind.


===Most people can avoid being trolled===
===Chris has stopped worrying about the hate he gets===
Chris ''does'' share traits with a lot of people, and some of these traits are quite disturbing and embarrassing. It's a fair assumption that a lot of people who follow Chris's antics are unemployed gamer losers, for example. A lot of people have seen Chris and uttered in their minds "Finally, here's someone who's more pathetic than ''I'' am!"
Chris is too busy entertaining [[Messiah complex|fantasies of godhood]] and the totally-real [[Dimensional Merge]] to pay attention to tryhards who want to be remembered as the next [[Clyde Cash]]; and, really, wanting to be remembered as someone who attempted to intimidate a disabled person is absolutely nothing to be proud of, or worth aspiring to. Chris will be too distracted by the latest drama or [[Financhu Crisis|monetary issue]] in his life to even pay attention to people who are obsessively angry with him, and even assuming that you actually get attention, there's little guarantee that you'd be able to engage with him on a long-term basis.


But before you fall into the fallacy of believing that vociferously condemning Chris will save you from the same fate, remember that having embarrassing traits like Chris's ''doesn't'' automatically make you subject to the sort of trolling Chris has had. It ''may'' make you subject to ridicule, but what's more important is how ''you'' respond to the ridicule. You could be like Chris and get [[Chris Calls Clyde Out|BLANGRY]] at every traitorous troll [[Laughs Under Lucricities|under lucricities]], and give the trolls power over you just like Chris did.
What's ironic is that Chris has been so desensitized by his many [[enablers]] that it's not likely he even cares about the amount of hatred he receives by A-logs on a daily basis. Therefore, A-logs are often considered some of the most lulz-worthy of the Quintet, particularly in the regard of them obsessively raging at a practically non-existent enemy and only succeeding in making themselves even more of a laughing stock; much the same as what happened with classic-era Chris against his own trolls. If whatever Chris does really bothers you, then the least you can do is calm your ass down, and try to avoid making a fool of yourself from your obsessive hatred. Otherwise, you could easily become "Chris Chan 4.0" yourself.


Or you could laugh with them at your faults, or even just ignore them and go about your business. Trolls generally aren't interested in people they can't coax a reaction out of. This vital recognition is something Chris never managed, and what set him down the path to perennial trolling in the first place. All in all, if you don't want to end up like him, A-Logging isn't the way to do it. But avoiding the myriad of mistakes Chris and A-Log made is.
===Being better than Chris is not and never has been an achievement===
As mentioned earlier, the incest allegations (and accompanying embezzlement of approximately $750 from Barb) are now considered by many the point where Chris crossed the line from being a buffoonish, sometimes morally-questionable but mostly harmless individual, to someone truly detestable and indefensible. By that same logic, however; trying to aggrandize one's self by A-Logging Chris is even more of a waste of time than it was previously, to the point where it ''will'' have exactly the opposite effect. Trying to make yourself look better by comparing yourself to a [[Obesity|fat]], [[Chris and anger|anger-prone]] manchild with [[DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS|incontinence issues]] and [[Chris and art|elementary school-level drawing skills well into adulthood]] is the kind of juxtaposition that always rung hollow at best, but saying you're better than an incestuous sex criminal with [[Messiah complex|a nose-diving grip on reality]] and close to four decades' worth of unsavory information to his name is something so pathetic, it can only make anyone attempting it look laughably insecure.

PROTIP:
Expressing disdain for Chris following his (alleged) appalling actions against his mother is not the same as A-Logging. A-Logging is still as unadvisable as it was before the leaks; don’t do it.
“ What Saddam did in the Gulf War was small potatoes to what Chris has done. ”
A-Log providing a helpful example of A-Logging, by comparing Chris to a war criminal.
“ He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you. ”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

A-Logging, named after noted Chris-Chan critic Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto, is a term used to describe the act of overplaying or exaggerating the negative traits of someone lulzy at irrational levels. This often (but not always) includes expressing disproportionate levels of hatred for someone and/or wishing physical harm on them, usually for perceived "crimes" that they are "guilty" of. A-logging also typically involves comparing oneself to someone noticeably lulzy or dysfunctional, and claiming that they're not as incompetent as said lulzy person.

People who are suspected of doing this are often referred to as "A-Logs" or "A-Loggers", and are considered at the other end of the spectrum from white knights; where white knights try to defend Chris from trolls and help him to improve his situation, A-Logs hold the belief that Chris is deserving of whatever scorn and harm he is subjected to, and then some.

While once fashionable, especially when Chris was a relatively new internet phenomenon, A-Logging has become associated with people trying to "trollshield" themselves, like the original A-Log, and therefore is looked down upon by Christorians. The shocking revelations that came to light during the Incest Saga saw A-Logging come back into vogue to some degree, though actively wishing death or physical harm upon Chris is still considered by many to be crossing the line.

Etymology

PROTIP:
This article is about the term "A-Logging", not about Anthony LoGatto himself. This section is only meant to provide context to why this aspect of the Unholy Quintet is named after him. If you want to read an article about LoGatto and his hypocritical campaign against Chris, alongside other shenanigans, then you should go read his Encyclopedia Dramatica page here.


A-Log
Information
Name Anthony Logatto.
Date of birth (1985-05-08) May 8, 1985 (age 39)
Gender Male
Race White
Nationality American
Occupation YouTuber
Comedian
Voice Actor
Podcast Host

Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto [1] is a YouTuber and "voice actor" who is known for making what can charitably be called "commentaries" on Chris. Commentary videos are meant to refute bad points and offer opinions on an opposing view; what A-Log did was make videos where he reacted to Chris, pointed out the obvious, and went on tangents about how Chris is an awful person (and how he, A-Log, is better) who needs to have harm inflicted upon him. However, A-Log's monomania led trolls to wonder what he was trying to hide, leading to them doing a bit of research on him.

The result was that A-Log became known as "Chris-Chan 2.0" because, as it happened, he had many, many faults similar to Chris himself, and could easily be considered worse than Chris. Among other things, he is a furry porn connoisseur, has made terrible erotic fanfiction, is doing a laughable college radio show (from which he was almost fired after being caught watching porn in the studio), was the subject of a leaked video of him doing a painfully bad stand-up routine, and much, much more. Ultimately, A-Log became subject to trolling himself, and is the inspiration for this very term. At one point, A-Log even received his own wiki called the "Logattopedia"[2], which was relatively short-lived and unpopular. He also spawned the phrase "Hi, A-Log!", used to mock A-Logs and other Internet "tough guys".

Features of A-Logging

There are a few qualities which are common in A-Logs, and many of them can be seen in the original A-Log's commentaries.

Justifications for trolling Chris

Some would argue that it is sinister and just plain wrong to mock a mentally deficient person such as Chris. A-Logs therefore try to justify trolling him by arguing that, regardless of his autism and other undiagnosed problems, he has shown that he is a bad person who "deserves" to be trolled. Some A-Logs are themselves autistic (or at least claim to be so), and they can often be heard making arguments along the lines of Chris "giving autistics a bad name." Others will appeal to his many instances of bigotry (most of them debatable) as reasons to troll Chris. By establishing that Chris is a bad person, it seems to justify that Chris not only deserves the treatment he currently receives, but also deserves physical and/or psychological harm inflicted on him.

While Chris is definitely not a good person and has done some horrible things, including cursing his ex-friend for trolling him (which of course, she didn't), hitting a game store owner with his car, macing an innocent Gamestop assistant manager, and having sex with his own mother, it is still somewhat ironic that A-Logs think the best recourse is to wish him death and curse him back. Not to mention, they tend to ignore the many factors that led Chris to behave in this way--unsurprisingly, unbridled malevolence is never one of them, as discussed in further detail below.

Trollshielding

Often times, people who A-Log Chris do so to "trollshield", that is, to avoid becoming subject to trolling themselves. Like A-Log himself, they tend to have many traits in common with Chris; they generally have an autism spectrum disorder, still live with their parents well into adulthood (which is somewhat more justified now due to the instability of the housing market in the United States compared to when Chris graduated), are unemployed and/or are living off welfare, are sexually-frustrated virgins, have trouble socializing and forming relationships, and/or are fixated on cartoons, toys and other things that most people their age would have little interest in beyond their nostalgic value. Some perhaps have even more faults than Chris, especially bizarre fetishes, as seen in the case of A-Log himself. However, A-Logs will argue that at least they are "not like Chris" and are fervent in their vitriolic condemnations of Chris so that people don't troll them instead. More often than not, as in the case of the original A-Log, this backfires and they find themselves becoming the subject of trolling.

Standing up for groups that Chris misrepresents

Another misguided aspect of A-Logging is the idea that bashing Chris is somehow to the benefit for marginalized groups that Chris is a part of, most notably autistic and transgender people. The argument behind this, in an A-Logger's eyes, is that it needs to be pointed out that Chris does not provide an accurate representation of those kinds of people and their communities, and that as such, he needs to be ostracized. Of course, doing so is to little benefit of the groups that are actively being oppressed and instead comes across as a flimsy excuse to aim at low-hanging fruit rather than to do something genuinely worthwhile to helping those kinds of communities. It should go without saying that making fun of or directly harassing a mentally-ill weirdo on the internet is not going to help anyone's cause.

Arguments against A-Logging

A-Logging in a nutshell. You don't even need to watch the video in question; the title and thumbnail are enough.

While Chris is, to put it very mildly, far from perfect, it is generally accepted that calling for him to be harmed or abused like A-Logs do merely legitimizes Chris's sense of victimization, and makes the A-Logs themselves look sociopathic and unbalanced.

Chris is not a Hitler-level monster

We really shouldn't need to point out that, while Chris is guilty of actions that could be considered foolish, immoral, or downright reprehensible, being compared to people like Adolf Hitler or Saddam Hussein is at best hyperbolic, and at worst, utter insanity. Hitler was responsible for the death of nearly 11 million civilians during World War II.[3] Hussein actively persecuted and murdered almost 200,000 Kurds and Shiite Muslims.[4] Chris's antics, depraved as some of them may have been, hardly compare to the atrocities committed by two feared and reviled dictators; for much of his life he was just a gullible idiot who spent his time trying to hit on women (very badly) and make them his sweethearts, crossdressing, and playing vidya.

The revelations relating to the Incest Saga caused many A-Logs, both past and present, to crow that they had been right about Chris all along, and that anyone who had defended or tried to aid Chris to any degree during the past decade-and-a-half was guilty of White Knighting him and enabling his actions. While we won't argue that Chris's actions towards his infirm mother are totally indefensible, it should be noted that Chris's prior criminal activities largely consisted of things such as public disorder, traffic violations, trespassing, and petty assault. Arguably the worst thing that he had previously done was his hit-and-run on Michael Snyder, and even then, the court appeared to view Barb as the primary guilty party in the whole affair, judging by her getting the heavier sentence of the two. It's no exaggeration to say that there's a massive leap in severity between any of Chris's prior crimes and what he is currently accused of, and while many Christorians may have been naive as to the extent of his depravity, A-Logs can hardly use actions no-one could have reasonably foreseen as justification for their behavior.

There's no legal defense over attacking Chris for real

We really should not need to tell you that inflicting, or threatening to inflict harm on Chris is nothing short of being illegal. Perhaps the best reason against A-Logging is the legal liability (i.e. being charged with and possibly convicted for stalking, terroristic threats, assault, or a myriad of other possible charges). Whatever feelings you may have against Chris, there is no legal defense for taking the law into your own hands, and chances are you will end up with a life-changing felony conviction. In addition to this, part of the charm of watching Chris is in his eternal rage over a nonexistent enemy. Committing actual violence would only legitimize Chris's victim complex, and likewise would, in such a circumstance, make you the villain.

Like A-Log, you can make yourself a target if you try too hard

Chris does share traits with a lot of people, and some of these traits are quite disturbing and embarrassing. It's a fair assumption that a lot of people who follow Chris's antics are unemployed losers on the internet, for example. A lot of people have seen Chris and uttered in their minds "Finally, here's someone who's more pathetic than I am!"... But make no mistake, that is a very low bar to clear. If you extensively go into how much you hate Chris and try to insert yourself into his shenanigans, the same people that you're attempting to impress will likely consider looking into your own shortcomings.

As much as Chris is far from being likable, responding to his every move with unconditional hatred can make you come off as being just as much a target, if not more so, than him. Saying that you are better than Chris is not at all impressive, especially when you take into consideration just how much Chris fails at everything he does. Therefore, you should not be using someone else’s character flaws in order to justify and excuse your own. This is especially true if that very same person has no bearing on your life as a whole, and are only comparing yourself to a relatively well-known lolcow to feel a little less shitty in comparison.

Before you fall into the fallacy of believing that vociferously condemning Chris will save you from his fate, remember that having embarrassing traits like Chris's doesn't automatically make you subject to the sort of trolling Chris has had. It may make you subject to ridicule, but what's more important is how you respond to the ridicule. You could be like Chris and get BLANGRY at every traitorous troll under lucricities, and give the trolls power over you just like Chris did. Or you could laugh with them at your faults, or even just ignore them and go about your business. Trolls generally aren't interested in people they can't coax a reaction out of. All in all, if you don't want to end up like him, A-Logging isn't the way to do it. But avoiding the myriad of mistakes Chris and A-Log made is.

Chris has stopped worrying about the hate he gets

Chris is too busy entertaining fantasies of godhood and the totally-real Dimensional Merge to pay attention to tryhards who want to be remembered as the next Clyde Cash; and, really, wanting to be remembered as someone who attempted to intimidate a disabled person is absolutely nothing to be proud of, or worth aspiring to. Chris will be too distracted by the latest drama or monetary issue in his life to even pay attention to people who are obsessively angry with him, and even assuming that you actually get attention, there's little guarantee that you'd be able to engage with him on a long-term basis.

What's ironic is that Chris has been so desensitized by his many enablers that it's not likely he even cares about the amount of hatred he receives by A-logs on a daily basis. Therefore, A-logs are often considered some of the most lulz-worthy of the Quintet, particularly in the regard of them obsessively raging at a practically non-existent enemy and only succeeding in making themselves even more of a laughing stock; much the same as what happened with classic-era Chris against his own trolls. If whatever Chris does really bothers you, then the least you can do is calm your ass down, and try to avoid making a fool of yourself from your obsessive hatred. Otherwise, you could easily become "Chris Chan 4.0" yourself.

Being better than Chris is not and never has been an achievement

As mentioned earlier, the incest allegations (and accompanying embezzlement of approximately $750 from Barb) are now considered by many the point where Chris crossed the line from being a buffoonish, sometimes morally-questionable but mostly harmless individual, to someone truly detestable and indefensible. By that same logic, however; trying to aggrandize one's self by A-Logging Chris is even more of a waste of time than it was previously, to the point where it will have exactly the opposite effect. Trying to make yourself look better by comparing yourself to a fat, anger-prone manchild with incontinence issues and elementary school-level drawing skills well into adulthood is the kind of juxtaposition that always rung hollow at best, but saying you're better than an incestuous sex criminal with a nose-diving grip on reality and close to four decades' worth of unsavory information to his name is something so pathetic, it can only make anyone attempting it look laughably insecure.

The Hall of A-Logging Shame

In this section, the CWCki has compiled several comments (and plenty more to come) from A-Logs on YouTube and elsewhere.

“ Obviously you've never heard of what he calls other people who are autistic, and that he calls people with Aspergers(such as myself) "fakers". he doesn't deserve some, he deserves everything for giving us a bad name. The trolls are also doing what they do to him for a good reason. it's not about the autism to them, but more of that he's a moron who is evil reincarnate and deserves to go back to hell. I don't believe you know what all CWC has done to us on youtube. ”
GamerXZ0, in a YouTube comment on an original upload of an A-Log video.

OfficialSteroidHedgy, in a comment in Chris's YouTube account.
“ I hope you are ashamed that a retarded autistic person (just like yourself) killed 20 innocent kids....all autistic people should be wiped from the earth and aborted before birth since you are all evil i wish the worst fates that heaven and hell can bring upon you and all the other autistic pieces of shit like you ”

“ Sadly, yes. ”
Another post from the Bad Webcomics Wiki's Facebook Page, when told that Chris survived the fire.
“ Words cannot adequately describe my utterly all-encompassing hatred and disgust for the grotesque entity that is Christian Weston Chandler. You Christian, are a shamelessly gruesome, inhuman monster. Everything you do and say only adds to your, almost incomprehensibly massive, list of atrocities. Were I to load up http://www.sonichu.com or some other Chris-Chan-related news source and saw that you finally died a death which properly corresponded to what you've inflicted upon this world, it would be the happiest day of my life.

Happiest. Day. Of. My. Life.

”
ephewe, on I Love You, Catherine.
“ Listen, you fat, autistic piece of shit. I've tolerated you so far because you're going to be my new neighbor, but this is the last straw. You traipse around your yard carrying blow up dolls and singing awkwardly, not to mention I can constantly hear you screaming at your mother. I am serious considering finishing cleaning this lot and selling this property to someone better equipped to handle someone like you. I was well within the city ordinances with this controlled brush burn. Also, if I see any other videos of me on my lot portraying me in a negative light, I will take up a libel suit with you. ”
Mac Slims, trying much too hard to pretend to be Chris's neighbor.
“ God I fucking hate this piece of shit. I hope he dies. ”
JAZZ HANDS, on the GameStop assault video.
“ Why the fuck is he still alive!?

God, I mean, the guy looks ridiculous, he is also racist and an anti-social idiot that attacks people for no reason, and now he's a fucking burglar!? What's next, he will become the next Hitler?

”
Rafael Gutierrez, on the GameStop assault video.
“ Yes people, THIS is the person Chris's trolls have been whiteknighting and pussing out on trolling because hes "had enough done to him" seriously, give me a break, this guy is an asshole and deserves anything that happens to him because its his OWN DAMN FAULT ”

Boner Dix, responding to a YouTube comment left by Chris
“ Why can't this fucking freak of nature just die already?!!?! ”
Gogol ginn, on "The Best of Chris-Chan, Vol. 1"
“ One of these days, someone is going to beat the shit out of Chris and I will not have an ounce of pity for him. I am actually surprised that the people of Ruckersville haven't gotten together to run Chris and Barb out of town. ”
Red Roja, in a NationStates Forum thread about Chris
“ Someone strangle this fucker to death. Please. ”
Darkside780 on CWC Music Video Holding Out For a Hero
“ I just saw a semi-censored version. WHO THE FUCK MAKES THESE KINDS OF VIDS? He's acting like a retard and at the same time running around naked. I wish this man a slow, painful, death. I don't care about the lulz he gives us. This man is disturbing,creepy, and should not be allowed to join society. ”
thesideshowman212 on CWCFlyingElephants
“ Proof perfect that autists should be dumped in the nearest alligator pit when their condition becomes apparent. ”
GalVorbak on the Sign Destruction Video

Whatever happened to predictability?
This crazy manchild doing weird shit each week.
