I'm not sure if this is a hot take or anything, but Grunkle Ford was 100% in the wrong in terms of who was truly at fault between the brothers. Sure, Stanley ruined his science project which got him rejected from college, but Ford's arrogance is what caused everything in Gravity Falls to go wrong. Dude wasn't able to see that Stanley brought him back because he truly loved him.

Also, Stanley's intelligence shouldn't be underestimated. Dude successfully rebuilt the portal from scratch, and was able to maintain a coverup for so many years.
Yeah, while Stanley is undoubtedly rough around the edges and has more than his fair share of screw-ups, you seriously can't fault him for the genuine love and effort he put into crafting that portal piece-by-piece for YEARS, just for the slightest chance of seeing his brother again. And what does he get when he finally reunites with his long-lost twin?

A six-fingered punch to the face.

I think the message though is that neither of them were willing to swallow their pride and apologize to the other. Both of them wanted to hear the other apologize and make up, but neither wanted to be the one to do it. It was still really wrong for Ford not to acknowledge or appreciate all the years of effort Stan put into saving him though.

That said, I believe the show's creator has gone out and said that Stan and Ford are identical twins. That means they're almost entirely genetically identical. The only reason Stan thinks he's dumber then Ford is because that's what he's been told his entire life.

And Guh is a child and I don't want him to talk about those ****y yucky things. ;(
Excuse me, I am responsible for countless war crimes, I can handle those ****y yucky things.

All those war crimes were against Minecraft villagers of course
