Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

Could this be the return, as foretold in prophecy?

Or is it just a good impersonation.

It's a different guy, last I heard the real one was finishing up a residency as an internal medicine doctor. He wouldn't jeopardize his career by harassing a mentally ill lolcow. And Chris can't even see this video from his jail cell anyway.

 

[Ophelia]

Had Chris not been arrested or done the deed with Barbara
he would've likely been able to go watch Dr Strange and the Madness of the Multiverse
which would've justified every single belief he has and further spiral him down the insanity route.

He could have seen Loki a year earlier and gone, “Hmm yeah.” It features Loki meeting a woman version of himself.

trying to imitate

Mimicry is not unheard of in mental health.

Spoiler: edit condense post

Case: Stewart and Cyril Marcus, twins that owned a fertility clinic together.
Basis for the David Cronenberg film, Dead Ringers.
They were described as exceptionally odd and really only understanding one another.
After their death upon interviewing the many people they knew throughout their life together (note I say their death and their life because they were for all purposes one person emotionally.) the line "it was like they were trying to mimic how other people acted." It became so commonplace in each interview that an entire chapter of the novel based on them was about this.
They knew they were not normal, nor could ever be normal. Being genius level persons though they were able to solve it as a puzzle and mimicry was enough to still pass as human and they became arguably the top women's fertility specialist in the world (at the time). Their life was tragically ended after one died from drug withdrawal and the other purposefully withdrew from drugs to die alongside his brother.
I digress, Chris is the antithesis to their life in every aspect other than he knows he is not normal, nor could ever be normal.

I believe Chris was practicing aggressive mimicry opposed to defensive mimicry most of the time.
See when Megan liked something, Chris liked something. It was predatory blatantly. If I like x, y, or z like this person maybe I can get closer to them. There are numerous examples of this throughout Christian's history.
Listen to every phonecall, every time he is in public. His mannerisms, the words he chooses, hell even his fucking accent changes from time to time. This is more an example of defensive mimicry though.
When he talked to Alec, he started trying to use bigger words. He respected Alec (as much as Chris could) and knew inherently Alec was much smarter than him. He tried to mimic Alec's confidence in conversation.
Using Alec "Lars" as an example. Chris starts talking in slang more regularly throughout these conversations. His vocabulary drops considerably. Hell how quick he was to respond with "I'll be your nigga" when Lars goaded him with an act of brotherly camaraderie is a great example of this.
These are just a few examples of the regular imitation practices. Your argument that Chris would imitate things he watched or learned about on the internet is not unfound and you have a lot of ground for going deeper with it.

So when will the Chris Chan inspired Law and Order episode air?

Mimicry is not unheard of in mental health.

You're 100% correct,its in fact not uncommon for autistic people to take and imitate mannerisms/personality traits especially those they see as socially accepted/"cool". Which is honestly where the most interesting part of his imitation lies, in that it often contradicts itself. Almost like not even Chris himself gets why hes imitating it thus has no incentive to keep it consistent from person to person. Like the examples you brought up, he went from trying to sound educated with Alec using big words he really didnt understand to "Lars" acting as if he was from the hood, and its even weirder what happens when he gets caught in his inconsistencies. As much as we like to talk about him being a psychologists wet dream, I sincerely believe you could write multiple books on each facet of Chris as a person. Ego, romance, imitation, sexuality, identity, the effects of being a "child of the media", and the ramifications of being terminally online/wired into the internet. He's a cornucopia of mental and psychological disasters that its no wonder so many people even outside of this bubble are fascinated by him.

I swear I've been hearing that since like 2014. I think he may already have a career as a doctor at this point but then again I dont know the inner workings of medical internship/residency so who am I to cast doubt. However I will say if it ISNT him, by god this person is a damn good impressionist.

 

[I swear she's 18]

A bright eight year old probably understands politics as well as Chris does. I get why we don’t have intelligence tests for voters, but got dam.

Intelligence tests were outlawed in the US due to it being illegally discriminative against the lower class (post founding of the nation when they removed the land owner requirement), and then later racism (Jim crow laws such as literacy tests to prevent black people from voting).* Though Gen-z worries me.

It's pretty funny that Chris was able to not just vote, but also own a gun (pre macing incident) before the incest saga.

It's a bit unfair to use those videos as proof that zoomers are idiots, that's most likely showing cherry picked people who messed up and not the dozen or so that could answer. Even if it was true most of them won't vote anyways so barriers to voting aren't really necessary. Barriers to keep Chris from voting might be a good idea though.

It sounds like him, although IIRC it was two twins who played Liquid Chris, the one who recovered from cancer, became a doctor and married Kacey (Christopher Duckworth) and the wannabe musician (Jon Duckworth) who I don’t think we have an update from (The one who did the singing challenge videos), I think it’s possible it’s the latter.

I doubt they'd do anything that paints trannies even in a remotely negative light.

It's really too bad that none of the Branchland Court neighbors have come forward with their stories. As they say in academia, it presents a big gap in the literature, and whether they know it or not they are the keepers of some really important undocumented Christorical knowledge. Ditto for Chris's classmates from school, now that I think of it.

I'm sure at least a few of them have made it as far as the CWCki, I've always wondered if any of them are secretly among us on the Farms, or have shown up elsewhere in Christory, Joshua Martinez style, as trolls or other figures.

I would love to see a Q&A with a long-term neighbor or classmate and get their take on Chandler shenanigans, weens, and other things they've witnessed. They probably have a few stories nobody has ever heard before. Or maybe an elementary school classmate could elucidate us on the scream-recording incident, or even why he got kicked out of cub scouts.

So much we may never know.

Liquid Chris is a doctor now or something. Fucking with a tard is beneath him at this point. He completed his lovequest and is clapping Kacy's ample cheeks. My money is on good impersonation. Didn't Liquid have a baby hand too?

"Look at him. He looks like a troll. He is a troll."

Never a truer statement about cyraxx spoken.

Or, I suspect, they're pulling the leg of the interviewer. I know if someone asked me the name of the first American in space, I'd be tempted to say Major Matt Mason.

I've always found it strange that the Chandler's neighbours never got caught up in their shenanigans. It probably sucks to have hoarders next door, and if you couple that with Chris's uncanny capacity to cause some kind of drama anywhere he goes it's pretty amazing that they never came to blows.

So when will the Chris Chan inspired Law and Order episode air?

When it becomes ok to put a horrible trans person in the spotlight. If it makes trans people look bad, it’s not going on TV. Unless Matt Walsh picks up the story for a fox doc.

Lots of us would freeze and forget shit if thrown on camera whilst going about our day.

Chris always seemed way too focused on the gays for it to be just something he picked up on not to like. I can't imagine his parents talking about gay stuff around town, however, at the same time, Barb was pretty forceful about not letting him go out in Tomgirl stuff before relenting.

I think it's mostly Chris seeing more gay stuff online, and liking women better, having grown up in a time where you saw hot women in advertising all the time and rarely any, what Chris would consider, "Gay stuff".

On the topic of Chris and his particular hatred of the gays, I always speculated it was because his bullies probably called him gay and a faggot frequently. It was the 90s, that was the go-to insult in schools, and Chris's autism twisted things into him hating gays.

Or it was his cope to prove he wasn't gay, because he didn't understand they were calling him it as an insult instead of them being genuinely confused on his sexual preferences, lol.

I always assumed they had the rep of being that family, the one on the block you know about but are always told are kind of not all there. I think all of us had that or have heard of that at some point. Plus given the look of the house and its condition, most people probably assumed it wouldnt be worth bothering the old couple with the retard son.

I always assumed its because 1. he didnt fit the perfect picture of masculinity and therefore saw it as being gay. And since Chris hates not seeing himself as the 80s macho man (or did) he hated gays because they to him were the opposite. or 2. its your latter option but not coming from bullies, but instead his gal pals. Let's be perfectly honest, anyone, gay straight or zig zag could look at Chris and think "homo". His mannerisms, his voice, his frilly gate, everything about him SCREAMED flamer.
I still remember showing Chris to a couple of friends two of whom are gay men in a relationship, and almost instantly they assumed he was a homosexual, no ifs ands or butts, full on gay. So if they saw that as open gay men in the 2010s I can only imagine what people in the 90s and early 00s onward though.

Yeah, think it’s probably a bunch of things like being creeped out at the thought of gay men, being thought of as gay himself and whatever else.

I doubt zoomers and other younger followers of Chris realise how often fag, faggot and gay was used back then by school kids, calling things gay or retarded was interchangeable with dumb or stupid back then, even in PG movies like Bill and Ted it has the word fag in it.

zoomers

As an 80s guy I think a larger issue is that increased efficiency in information travel has effectively removed Gatekeeping from most things. So there is no larger responsibility from the younger generations to go through the process of brute forcing through each step like previous generations did. There is almost guaranteed someone smarter who you can just ask a question online and get an answer from in just about any community.
While this theoretically makes Z more knowledgeable on a subject. It completely removes the abilities of logic and greater imagination from a good amount of them.
So they are like encyclopedias, endless information within, but an encyclopedia can not use its own information. It must be opened and used by someone else.

you could write multiple books on each facet of Chris as a person.

Chris is a piece of art to me as beautiful as a Goya painting.
He is one of a kind, never to truly be replicated to such an extent. A real life Truman Show.
This might be unethical, but I think for the greater good of documenting the human condition Chris must continue on as Truman. Never, ever in history have we had such documentation on mental illness. Nothing has ever come close to this. I'd argue 9/10 points made by any therapist can be thrown into the garbage because once a patient realizes they are being "treated" it's hard to peer review and compare data.
Chris is unique in this as he realizes he is being watched and he continues to act as if he isn't being watched. It's mind boggling.
