    I was talking to my daughter about something awhile back and I ended up divulging to her that I had depression, and she laughed. I questioned her on why that would make her laugh and she explained that she didnt know what depression was (she's 12), but she knew that everyone pretended like they had it and made fun of it all the time.

    That conversation got real serious real quick. Kids are fucking ruthless.

    Did anybody watch Keemstar's interview with him on DramaAlert?

    Keem kept ridiculing Etika's clearly manic state throughout the interview and even jokingly challenged him to jump off a cliff if he truly believed reality was just a simulation. In the eyes of many, he had gone too far, especially after it turned out that Etika was actually suicidal and not clowning around for attention.

    But then again, I don't see how people are surprised by Keemstar's conduct. After all, he's the kind of guy that used to make racial slur-filled rants on his stream, driving old age Runescape streamers to tears over falsified paedophilia accusations, and just generally being a massive drama llama. He is one of the few YouTubers scummy enough to have iDubbbz drop a Content Cop on him.
