Yeah, I personally wouldn't go out of my way to defend Chris in that he might mistake me for being a friend - and I really don't need that.
I just don't like seeing crowds of people get together to bully individuals who are incapable of defending themselves - it's one of the uglier qualities exhibited by human beings.
Wait wait, you're disgusted by the thread mocking him, but you hate the idea of being mistaken for being his friend so you're not going to help? I don't exactly think you can judge the people of this thread by an "ugly quality" they have when you seem to be exhibiting the idea that being falsely associated with Chris would damage your ego.
Is it wrong to watch old movies and take pleasure out of how corny they are and how unemotional the actors are when they speak since people worked hard on the movies and it's mocking their hard work/creative vision/directing skills? If something like this can't be joked about because it's a real issue, then can we really laugh at other real issues, like slavery, starvation, war, or anything else that is serious?
Everyone has bad qualities, but should that mean we should all be barred from doing things just because we're not perfect/we don't strive for perfection? This thread is primarily for "enjoying" the horrible antics of Chris' creations which overlaps with his real life on multiple occasions, making it hard to understand what the hell is going on without background info. While I'm more horrified than amused by his IRL antics, I don't have qualms with them having fun doing this, especially when none of it is with malicious intent, and no one is interacting directly with Chris while doing it. You might as well be trying to stop gossip, gossip that Chris is probably never going to find or isn't going to care enough about to read.
So don't try to paint yourself as being better than the others in this thread, we all have ugly sides, and no one is "more ugly" than the others.
