nobody gets it but me...chris was doomed from the start bc her parents were never, ever up to the task- ESPECIALLY barb, who was overbearing and emotionally incestuous since christine's youth- and the people she tried to find solace in online only sought to make her life worse. she never stood a chance.
cwc (&emily youcis- but i am W-A-Y WAY less apologetic for her) is a shining example of someone who is clearly, and has clearly been mentally unwell since her debut on the internet, and people (both online & irl) were only interested in the inherent entertainment value of neurodivergent abuse victims online (my pet theory is that both of them are either OSDDID or schizospec or both -schizospec d.i.d. haver)
