Where was there confirmation that it was a stunt? I heard the same thing myself, but couldn't find any sources from a google, and I'm interested in how he "justified" it.

Internet celebrity Etika may be losing it again [WARNING: RACIST AND HOMOPHOBIC SLURS] (Update: hospitalized again; see threadmark/staff posts)

He explained what had happened and his friends confirmed it.
- It was meant to be an ARG that got out of hand, people thought he was suicidal but he was only talking about his streams.
- Said that it was almost entirely to do with the fact that the network he was a part of was keeping him from making more money.
- Wanted a fresh start which meant shutting down his then stream and making a new channel.
Etika had consistently used misogynistic and homophobic language forever.
He also stans hard for guys like PewDiePie.
In pretty sure he have some sort of mental problem or something, well for once he have ADHA and his girlfriend is ever crazier
Honestly couldn't have said it better myself.
hey I remember that reddit thread. But yea it's impossible to take Etika seriously when he does this after the whole mental institute claim. Dude became obsessed with growing his mind share and he will do anything to make it grow at this point.

Just posted porn on his new youtube channel, and it just got taken down.
Throwing it all away, again.

It's astounding to me how many people in this thread are all but excusing the racism and homophobia by saying he "needs help" and probably has emotional problems. Since when has this ever been an excuse for anyone?
dude should be banned from youtube and twitter. and just forgotten
I'm so glad he's getting so big. Dude is putting in the grind and doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon.
He does most likely have emotional problems and he does need help. He's also clearly racist and homophobic. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
Scott really deserves the growth. Been following him for almost a year now.
People have to stop following these assholes.
Like ban him from all social media already. If he has mental illness, someone who knows him personally should step in and help. Else he deserved lifetime social media ban. Don't need people like him adding his racist shit on top of all the "regular" racists.
Sadly people online still following these guys. Just stop giving them attention already.

Not any more, he had to dump them on the side of the road to avoid getting arrested by the popo for selling something that is not for resale.
Im a bit shocked at this also. Ive seen era go at people for a lot less.
Seems to be he's just an asshole chasing clout.
Preach.Yeah he can fuck right off.
You know, it's funny. I had a thread a while back about Toxicity in gaming and steps devs could take a while back and people gave me the usual garbage responses:
"Just Mute them lol"
"Don't play MP games?"
"It's just words don't get mad"
Meanwhile I sit here and get harassed daily in games like Siege:
There's countless more Clips, Videos, Audio Recordings, Etc that I have all saved from when I play siege that I could go through and grab revalent parts, but it's obvious that at the end of the day no one on Gaming Side could give 2 fucks about slurs being shouted as long as they aren't the ones being attacked. I'm fucking done of sitting here and being shit on, and having some dipshit youtuber with a history of pulling theatrics say hurtful shit and having people say "Poor Etika :'( ilsym".
Fuck Etika and fuck anyone that defends this piece of human refuse.
Seems fine to me, just acting a regular 13 year old asshole, which is fitting for his demographic.
He's the Kanye of YouTubers.
PewDiePie support is similar to Trump support.
Mental breakdowns feel similar, too, as a result of all the attention they crave but cannot handle.

Etika isn't even good at smash. He reacted to smash trailers and people watched him.
Sakurai rt'd his mewtwo reaction and he blew up.

Damn..... laying it out like this is pretty eye opening to me.
It's a different account. So this would make two he's suicided via hentai upload.
OK, it's still attempted account suicide on this second case.
