>Autism came to be associated with impassioned gamers, in part, because of a Sonic the Hedgehog megafan referred to as Chris-Chan (now known as Christine). In the mid-2000s, Christine, who was diagnosed with autism early in her life, illustrated the first issue of her Sonic fan comic, Sonichu, from her Virginia home. It was unpolished and unapologetically earnest, just the kind of thing to surface on mid-2007 Sup Forums. After discovering her Encyclopedia Dramatica page, which contained a mocking portrait of her habits and online history, Christine began fighting back against her trolls. On YouTube, Christine tried to reason with them. But it just added fuel to their malicious little war. A 10-year harassment campaign followed, which is still playing out on Christine’s social media.

How much of an autist do you have to be to write such an autistic article?
Video games.
I mean they're right that using autistic as an insult is pretty, well, retarded in this hobby(most speedrunners are autistic for example).
Right for the wrong reasons though.
>Her.
Sonichu is not a Sonic fan comic.
Chris is not a she
These are the same people who use manchild as an insult, which is a slur for men with autism.
>her
How brave of this (((journalist))).
>her
Why are they using 'her' when they talk about events that Chris did as a guy? No im not impluing he is now a girl, just trying to follow their logic.
we don't use it as an insult, we use it as a reminder. trust me i am much more autistic than you and even i can understand the benefits of derogatory banter.
So if you don't take hormones, don't have any surgery and look like Milton from Office Space you STILL qualify as a woman?
What is this
Yet this shit remains up. Whatever. Moderation is getting fucking interesting. I wonder who's shoes go pissed on.
>I'm a girl now
there. literally all it takes. It's even official on government docs. Chris drivers license.
You might not, but there's a LOT of complete normies nowadays who use it in place of the less socially acceptable retard.
They genuinely think Autism is down syndrome, and use it as an insult towards dumb people for that reason.
yup, trannies are fucking hilarious
>her
Rosechu's Story. A rather good reworking of Sonichu.
Didn't he attempt to cut off his genitals with a meat cleaver?
What an autistic article.
Nah, he just got drunk and went ham on his groin with a steak knife.
Becoming a woman is like becoming a Muslim. All it takes is one spoken line. Now becoming a man, that shit's hard.
>Trying to paint Chris as a poor victim when just a couple hours of reading cwcki shows that he's just as shitty, if not worse, of a person as any of his trolls
That's not to mention the fact that most of Chris's problems are his own fault

The fuck does that even mean.
Pence was the former trainer wasn't he?
>unapologetically earnest
Shouldn't these types be screaming about a work full of blatant "women should fuck me out of pity" whining? Really makes u think
