I just saw a post saying that Stanford's "willingness to let Stan be treated by their parents that way" (paraphrased) makes him a failure of a brother or some shit. I was so mad lol
The sheer number of posts blaming Ford for the way Filbrick treated Stan makes my eye twitch so. bad.
What a way to make it the child's responsibility for how their parents treat them and their siblings. Like, they know that Ford ALSO grew up in an abusive environment and was abused too, right?? Apparently not oml
Don't even get me started on the science fair incident. Like, he had every right to be mad, and it wasn't Ford that threw Stan out. Blaming a child for not standing up to their abusive parents for their sibling seems to be rampant in the Gravity Falls fandom these days
