For those asking: The boy in the Youtube video was a Justin Bieber fan who made fan videos about him. He kept getting negative comments left on his account, so he made a comical video declaring war on Bieber haters. At this time, it was just a playful war thing on Youtube. Problem was, to stir it up, somebody posted his videos on 4Chan and then went on there impersonating him. It caused his videos to go viral. Then somebody discovered his private account and put up videos where he confessed he was gay and had a boyfriend. The FBI eventually got involved. Eric's father is a very religious man and when he saw the videos flooding Youtube, he's supposed to have beat him and got arrested for doing so. This is why he changed his bio to all that religious stuff and says that he was just pretending to be gay. He is trying to defuse the bullying. I feel really sorry for him. I'm talking with him right now and I'm connecting him with The Trevr Project to see if they can help him.
