It seems that folks are too quick to bash others - especially when they think they are right. When online trolls hurt someone enough that they harm themselves, the trolls don’t win, but rather everyone loses.
Aged 23? That's amazing to me, so many videos at such a young age.
RIP, darlin. You'll be missed.
Unfortunate when anyone dies that early.

I've never heard of this actress. Gay men are statistically more likely to carry STDs. Seems like a logical decision and not homophobic.
Suicide.
So in this fucked up politically correct world, not wanting to get AIDS makes you a bad person?
Words matter.
This type of trolling needs to end. It must have been unbearable for her, and it’s sad.
Sorry for my rants. I see the effects of online trolling with my kids (who are teens) and it is legitimately painful for them. It can easily get overwhelming.

The internet didn't create assholes, it just gave every asshole a semi-anonymous platform. This isn't a problem that has a quick solution, or any solution really. And obviously she must have been pretty mentally fragile to literally kill herself because of some online bullying. It's just a sad thing all around. Sad for her, her family, friends, and fans. And sad for our country where young people (left-wing people) seem to have completely given up on any notion of freedom of association and freedom of speech. Now sex workers are literally not even free to choose who can pay or be paid to have sex with them! It kinda makes the gay wedding cake debate seem like small-ball by comparison.
Anyone who blames this on "conservatives" is just not paying attention. Perhaps conservatives *would* bully people on the internet if they could, because that's what people do, but conservatives tend to be older and less likely to be on the internet in the first place. Also, conservatives are more likely to have a job or a business, and therefore less free time on their hands (and more to lose). It's like the difference between the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street a few years ago. The Tea Party was largely non-violent and cleaned up its mess after it finished protesting. The Occupy morons literally shit on police cars, raped women, obstructed traffic, and camped out for months like animals. I'm not a conservative, but at least in this regard, they behave much much better than their leftist counterparts.
To me this suicide was deeper than cyberbullying. August/Mercedes may have had a depression issue much deeper than from just being called homophobic. The homophobia accusations were just the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.
Also she put herself out there so much on Twitter. Maybe less of it would have been better. The internet has emboldened assholes to be assholes for sure, but if you don't put yourself out there, you won't be subjected to bullying from them.
It can be a double edged sword - when a porn star tries to exploit social media as a marketing tool. It can be effective to connect with fans. But it can also turn quickly and become brutally harsh.
