Actually he said in a relatively recent interview that his mother shielded him from the backlash. He didn’t see any of it until decades later. In the meantime he battled very serious mental health issues that were unrelated to Star Wars.
But Star Wars fans could almost claim responsibility for the suicide of Ahmed Best. He acted the shit out of Jar Jar and only earned hate for it.
My brother. Millennials were literally responsible for ruining Jake Lloyd’s life. Those entitled cunts have a lot to answered for.l

Ahmed Best isn’t dead by the way.
Also, username checks out. You would know.
Exactly… Right? I would have seen him.
That’s what the “almost” indicates. But he wanted to commit suicide. He was talked down if I recall correctly.
Ahh ok. It was phrased in an odd way. The “almost” looks like it is referring to the claiming of responsibility not the suicide.
Now I see what you mean. My brain is too stupid to think of better phrasing at the moment.
