Desmond Amofah AKA Etika was a YouTube star famous for his gaming channel, with a whopping 800,000 subscribers. He was a pioneer of YouTube gaming and leaves many distraught fans in his wake. There is an online petition with almost half a million signatories, demanding the reinstatement of Desmond’s channel, which was taken down according to the petition “due to his misconduct of a few uploads” (sic). YouTube may have suspended Etika for breaching the guidelines but I for one am amazed at their efficiency when cyberbullies Kiwi Farms have used YouTube to continue abusing their victims cross platforms for years. Perhaps his fans are unaware of the circumstances leading to his untimely death and need to be told, there is more to this story than first meets the eye.
Desmond Amofah had not drawn attention to the thread Kiwi Farms had created to target him, probably because he was afraid. I know I wanted to run and hide until it was all over. I had suicidal ideation that I was able to work through. In this haunting clip, he discusses his own death in a disconcertingly chirpy manner, forcing a smile that cracks in the corners as his eyes tell another story.
He is imparting his final wishes, perhaps knowing the truth that the day would arrive much sooner, but you can’t really say that to people cos it upsets them. I did and I was saved. Maybe he really didn’t want to be.
Desmond is the 5th person to end their life as a result of harassment and stalking by nazi incels and bullies Kiwi Farms. The death toll continues to rise and the response from the authorities is meagre at best. NYPD found and reported the news of Desmond’s passing yet failed to mention Kiwi Farms as a possible motive. Perhaps they are unaware. Of course it’s not like me at all to give the cops the benefit of the doubt but I’m hoping they will at least look into it.
