This hatred that some of yall have in your heart is..I dont even know, I cant find the word for it but it's obvious that this brotha was lost. I really dont understand calling every black person that says something you dislike a "c00n" or "cac". Like what is the purpose? Is it to make you feel better? Is it to reinforce that the person that has a similar skin color as you is beneath you?

I watched some of dudes videos and I could tell that he was hurting but the people who are quick to throw out names or say something crazy like "who cares that he died, he was a c00n" are also the ones that are hurting inside or need help also imo. Idk, its corny to me, especially since people can change. No one is going change if you just call them names. Some of yall act as if you had your black fist raised in the air right out the womb.

*awaits a few negs with "shut up cac" comments lol

With all due respect, Etika is not the hill you should die on. I can't speak for others, but I'm pretty lenient on what's considered "c00n" behavior. I even seldom say that word to describe someone unless they do something really out of line.

He liked video games? Cool. He was into anime/Nintendo/Nerdy stuff? Whatever, no problem. He hung out with and had a majority white following? Understandable, I suppose. White folks comprise the majority of the USA (and by extension, American gaming communities) and you don't necessarily have to compromise yourself to maintain relationships with them.

But when you say stuff like this:


That becomes much harder to defend. Can't really do the "Well he wasn't in the right state of mind" defense because some of those questionable tweets from him date back 2+ years ago, when he was presumably much more lucid.
Additionally, 29 is way too young to die, but that's more than old enough to know better than to say some clown stuff like that for the sake of "being edgy" or whatever.

I hear what you are saying though but there has to be a reason he turned out this way. A lot of people get online and turn into someone else. idk, I've encountered people in person who were way different online and most of the time that crazy talk is coming from a place of pain.

But in the end, that's just me and I respect your opinion

:francis: some of y'all disgusting and thats partially why we can't have discussions on mental health. Ain't thinking about nothing about people around him felt or how he felt. shyt rubs me the wrong way cause I know folks who didn't make it.

On a side , I hate the surface level views of how to address this problem which pop on Twitter a lot. It's always check on your friends to see how they doing, but that step #1. A lot of folks just say they alright/okay or they joke it off.

It's important to create environments where people can openly express how they feel without shyt going in they face. TBH, that's hard to do and hard to get if you are at his level. Imagine being surrounded by folks who,
  • actively want to see you fail and hate you.
  • Only care about the things that they can get from you and don't care about your well-being.
Add that being in predominantly white spaces, it's a heavy weight deal with. With that if you are suffering, please go out and get help. You ain't in this solo.:salute:

RIP. Mental health is a serious issue. I never wanted to kill myself but medication helps you not go into a state where you could think and even do commit that.
RIP young breh.
