Chris having a mental breakdown after being blocked by someone on twitter. |
In January 2019, several members of TF2 Analysis blocked Chris on Twitter after either being harassed by weens tagging them or as a preemptive measure after finding out about Chris's personality flaws. In an extreme online move for Chris, he responded by protecting his account (later reverting this) and subsequently creating a new, protected handle in attempt to minimise troll harassment. Christorians have marked this event as the start of the Soft Exile.
Prologue
Chris has always been a fan of My Little Pony; however, his interest in the franchise peaked in 2017, with notable events including the creation of Sonichu 12-9 protagonist Night Star and his attendance of BronyCon 2017. From this point, Chris would interact with a number of My Little Pony cast and crew, as well as contributors within the Brony community.
Chris is no stranger to people blocking him on Twitter. Not even two years prior, his interactions with Planet Dolan's DoopieDoOver concluded with Doopie blocking him and even his sockpuppet account—severing a potential sweetheart from Chris' perspective.
Later that same month, through both Chris' nature and the activity of the ween masses, Brony voice actor Nowacking blocked Chris on Twitter.[1] Taking a less radical approach than upcoming events, Chris became the spokesperson of a new hashtag campaign. He rallied his followers to block the trolls who peeved those who Chris followed. Realizing the futility of his campaign, he did what most people would have done in the first place and moved on.
BronyCon 2018 was a mostly positive experience for Chris. Despite a failed truce with Nowacking, BronyCon introduced Chris to the talents of artist Mad Munchkin and reviewer DRWolf, having attended their panels.
TF2 Analysis
TF2 Analysis is an online animated series, featuring an ensemble cast of Brony analysts—prolific members of the My Little Pony fan community who review episodes, merchandise, fan productions, etc.[2][3] A fan production crossover of My Little Pony and Valve's Team Fortress 2, the cast of TF2 Analysis includes a number of faces from Chris' past such as ILoveKimPossibleAlot, as well as the aforementioned artists from BronyCon 2018. A popular episode of this series is a 2014 short titled TF2: Analysis Anarchy.[2]
Chris' activity with the Brony analysts
Chris discovered the series as early as September 2018.[4] As he became more invested in the series, he started to follow several of the cast members via Twitter—most notably, Munchkin and Wolf—as well as contribute related content:
In September 2018, Chris introduced a new OC intended as a counterpart to Munchkin's Mary Sue named Gary Stu.[5] Likely spurred on by the participation of Brony analysts, in early January 2019, Chris took part in the #BronyBabes campaign to improve his physical fitness.[6]
As revealed by Chris on 26 January 2019, he had "been a Red Spy since [last] November" and shared a drawing of Chris-chan Sonichu in Analysis Anarchy.[7]
Blocks
Being blocked by these people prevents him from viewing their posts, eliminating a source of (one-sided) interaction online that is not interaction with trolls.
Response to these blocks
Chris responds poorly to getting blocked by those he follows on Twitter and his responses often take the form of vocal outbursts against the trolls who he thinks got him banned. Chris has extended his apologies to those who have been affected by his outbursts on Twitter but he still holds resentment towards the trolls. Chris has stated that the mass blocking he has received from his favorite Twitter users has left him with PTSD related symptoms and has made it clear that this form of trolling has been particularly distressing to him.[8]
He has made several videos and a hand drawn comic on the subject.
As the game of Block the Autistic, America's favorite new sequel to its similarly named franchise hit, continued to rage across Twitter Chris began retreating into a state of denial once more about how much it was affecting him. Since he could no longer convince himself that all the various twitter accounts he followed had blocked their favorite autistic friend and CPU Goddess Miss Christine Weston Chandler by mistake, he began claiming that it must be a new trend[9].

On 9 February 2019, Chris opened a new Twitter account, @CPU_CWCSonichu, in order to evade blocks. He was eventually reblocked by the TF2 Analysis crew after weens tattled on him.
On 22 February, Chris said he'd had enough of the Twitter drama, tweeting:
“ | I wish to go on record now that I am soo over the whole blocking mess. I have no concern over who blocked me, and those people can live their lives as they will. I am Through with them all. | ” |
