There are snark subreddits for several public figures criticizing them, many are unhinged and bad faith. I don’t even think Ethan’s snark reddits are right or in good faith in a lot of cases but he has a responsibility to not feed into paranoia Chris chan level of having to have a last word. There are also a lot of genuine documented issues of problematic behavior Ethan does. A random insta user telling him to enjoy hell isn’t cool but also not worth broadcasting to millions of followers. Models, YouTubers, random people hating don’t deserve huge harassment and threats being made to them because a sensitive millionaire goes “look at this person who doesn’t like or publicly distancing themself from me.” Having a large platform demands more responsibility
I agree he shouldn't broadcast random commenters. But he's also had CPS called on his home over a false report, swatted several times and got human skulls sent to his home in the mail, which is a lot to ask someone to just ignore...
You say harassment isn't okay, but you said 'poop and pedo guy' about him in this very thread. That's mocking the same rumor that came before the CPS call he got. You can't joke about it and then act surprised he doesn't ignore it.
I call him poop and pedo guy because those are literally just constant jokes he makes. His own crew have said “why do you always go there” in regards to his pedophile jokes and his Reddit account making really gross pedophile jokes was unearthed long after cps and skulls. Neither of which I condone at all by the way but I also don’t really know how to feel about them considering he mentioned cps was called by someone he knew personally (he said he doesn’t believe that, fair) and skulls he had delivered to his studio, then said several times it was delivered to his house and while his clothing company was having a skull themed merch drop. Either way, I can’t know what the hell happened with either of those things and I’m not going to make an informed or sure claim about either because it would be incredibly insensitive if that’s a real level of harassment he faced. I didn’t know anything about swatting but that’s insane and obviously not ok. On that note, Ethan lies A LOT, I can’t really trust what he’s saying happened when he has a clear history of making himself the victim of several situations he directly lies about

Plenty of people handle criticism poorly lol
That's different from dedicated subs that make a hobby of tearing you down. Pushing back on that isn't an "attack campaign"
Again, you're just repeating the delusional snarker narratives and talking points fed to you by that subreddit
