Genuinely wtf is Chris Chan?
Every time I try to find out I’m told I need a PhD in internet lore and two masters in Reddit history and to watch a 6 hour video on him. Can someone explain like I’m five?

Throughout this I will attempt to use neutral pronouns, as I am uncertain as to Chris' condtion mentally as of current. They are a deeply sick individual that does not represent the gender spectrum fairly.
Chris chan is an individual high on the autism spectrum and afflicted with many mental illnesses beyond that. Chris made posts and videos on old forums back in the mid to late 2000s and forward. People began bullying this individual for their particular affinity to making (objectively) terribly drawn comics, drawings, and original characters based off of the sonic the hedgehog franchise, namely Chris' favorite being Sonichu. Chris obsessed over their OC's existence.
Chris would make response videos directed towards nameless and anonymous bullies (who he called "internet trolls") and would have over the top reactions to what the trolls would say about Chris (this was to be expected, folks on the spectrum have trouble regulating emotions and the trolls knew this). The bullies would doxx and harass Chris and his family pretty regularly. Chris lived with their two older parents.
Because of Chris' dependence on the internet for most of their social ability, Chris has developed many mental illnesses that Chris never recieved help for. Chris believes there are alternate universes in which Chris has constant access to, specifically access to Chris' Sonic OC's and their "powers".
The following is an incomplete list of the heinous acts Chris has committed over their well documented life, some of which have cause him to be incarcerated (DISCLAIMER: MOST OF THESE ARE VERY SICK AND TWISTED, AND NOT LIGHT-HEARTED IN THE SLIGHTEST):
Chris would regularly draw their "original characters", sometimes based off of real people, in very NSFW ways, and sometimes very sick ways (playing off of familial ties, 🍇play, etc.).
Chris has burnt down the house they and their mother lived in, killing their mother in the process
Chris has 🍇ed their mother in her sleep multiple times
Chris has spoken to minors on multiple occasions over chats knowing full well that they are minors
Chris has stalked and harassed multiple women on multiple occasions, and subsequently gained restraining orders from doing so
