~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

The kid bought a silver YT button from the NCIX channel at auction. Linus tried to buy it back from him, but after some discussion, realized he should just let him keep it .
Some people supposedly harassed that guy online and eventually he killed himself.
People blame Linus for this because... 🤷 Ragebait, I guess.
Dude, WHAT? I knew about the first part, but the rest is horrific!
