I meant more so, while many others are on the spectrum like Ethan is, I couldn't think of a worse dad someone on the spectrum could have than the one he has. He will never have the support he truly needs, which is sad.

Right, that's true, good point. Stan Kurtz is definitely a scumbag for peddling his fake autism cures and flinging around "vaccines cause autism" misinformation like Riptide flings bots around the arena, and I do feel bad for Ethan in that regard. That being said, I have a brother who's also on the spectrum, he hates Team Riptide for their unsportsmanlike actions, and he hates seeing people online defending them using "but he's on the spectrum" as an excuse for Ethan's behavior. Using that as an excuse to defend Team Riptide's actions is basically spitting in the face of anyone else who's on the spectrum because of Stan Kurtz and the harm that he's done.
