Also I haven't watched the suicide note video but I didn't realise until after I had read it that this was the transcript for it.

If nothing else he will become a common case study in academic texts on internet culture in the years to come. A issue people are aware of but are not being vocal about are the private struggles and sense of loneliness felt by youtube content creators and influencer's. Etika was one such case where even though he had thousands of people who listened to every word he said he ultimately had few people he could openly talk to about his problems, especially when a lot of those people were making light of his problems. It completely screwed with his head.
He's not the first youtuber to have committed suicide but he is probably the biggest thus far.
