I kept repeating over and over that Etika has been very LGBT supportive in the past. I kept saying over and over again that if he has a mental illness, and mental illnesses can make you do absolutely insane stuff (such as...killing yourself, as we see here), it can OBVIOUSLY make you say the F-word. It's a fucking word. And yet people in here insisted in saying that he's a clown and a bigot and whatever, because of saying the f-word in middle of a mental breakdown while showing CLEAR signs of mental health issues.
Let this be a lesson, please. If someone who has shown to be progressive over and over again suddenly starts to show clear signs of mental health issues, and while this is happening they say something they shouldn't say, maybe cut that person some slack until they recover? It's just... common sense. He wasn't himself while all this was going down. He needed support, not people calling him a clown on Twitter. In fact, in the suicide note he uploaded, he mentioned how everyone considered him a clown. The way people on the Internet treated him during all this was a factor.
Please take mental health issues seriously people. Don't concentrate your sight on a word while ignoring the clear mental health issues the person was facing when he spouted said word. This was not a pewdiepie scenario, yet people insisted in treating it as one.
Oh and also, that one time in where he implied he was going to kill himself and then backtracked and said that he actually meant killing his previous persona and starting from scratch? I think that wasn't a hoax. I believe he did try to kill himself at that point, but in the end decided not to, and tried to convince people that he never actually thought of killing himself.
