Linus' fan base allegedly drove a little boy to suicide, and the mother subsequently took her own life as well.
This got dark fast.
R.I.P. mother and son.
Holy fucking shit 😳
:(
Wonder how those same fans would react to the opportunity to cancel Linus 🤔.
And LMG was supposed to do what about that? I get they've been shitty recently, but how can you blame them for the actions of their fans? They didn't tell their fans to do any of that stuff, they've told their fans to not do it on the past multiple times, what should they have done?
