This guy puts out the same clickbait video every day where he pretends to call someone at 3 AM (usually a fictional character) and then pretends that the person he called has broken into his house and is trying to kill him or some shit. Every single video is practically an exact copy of each other besides swapping the name of who he's supposedly calling. This time, he decided to use Etika's name for his shitty clickbait.
It still hurts me so much thinking how he's gone now. One of the best and genuine entertainer I know.This is making me sad and depressed every time I see this thread or Etika's name elsewhere, not only a life has been lost, we have lost one of the greatest entertainers and a incredible person. His hype was something to behold and would bring happiness to anyone watching him.
...
Did someone seriously put "F" on his memorial?
Can't people fucking stop "memeing" for a day?
There are over a million signatures to actually get Etika buried at YouTube HQ just because he said so while clearly joking. Most of his "fanbase" don't see him as an actual human being but a funny man that needs a funny burial. I'm legit worried what's gonna happen when his family more then likely won't push for that.
Yeah, no kidding. Not gonna lie...everyone's rush to be "good" and jump on a man needing help because he was saying offensive things irks me a lot. "We're here for you...but only if you behave well while having a suicidal crisis, otherwise we'll be quick to jump on you to show our moral superiority because, why, we would never say anything bad while suffering from mental illness because we are too strong for that!"
I feel terrible about this. Honestly, feel like I'm gonna quit on this place. This whole thing is a really sour note for me.
I'd always recommend the community thread if you feel vulnerable posting elsewhere.Essentially this. I know I don't feel comfortable talking about my mental illness here anymore... not a lot of places I do now that I think about it. The mentality is too common.
This. Shitty videos are a dime a dozen.Guys, why do you link to trolling and offensive content? Don't signal boost these idiots.
The internet being what is, I'm sure you can find this stuff anytime someone passes. Ignore it.
If this is true, he killed himself DAYS after putting out the "I'm Sorry" video. So, it's likely he saw the reaction the video got and had time to think over it and still went through with it. Man, this shit really is so fucking terrible.
Thank for sharing this. I am definately interested.
These look really cool.
This includes being vulnerable. Honestly, it's a sign of strength to be able to show one's feelings on the outside.
If manhood is "strength," then maybe true strength should be seen as being yourself and being kind to others.
Those look fantastic!
These look really cool.
Good design.
These look really cool.
Very well done.
Hopefully it can be used to tie into a suicide awareness campaign or something. This deserves to have a lasting positive effect somehow.
Well most of youtube's demographic are kids and teens, especially for the gaming channels. Definitely most of etika's demographic. 12-14 year olds loce being edgy, and combine that with how the internet is today, that's what happens. Teens think literally everything is a meme and never serious.Its going to keep happening until these issues are taught at a compulsory level in education as well as treatment improving drastically. Even then some cultures are just breeding apathy, and that's especially prevalent in some social media circles as evidenced with cases like this where people got treated as a meme rather than as a real person.
Amen. It was so sad to hear about his death.
