He never called him self the ‘equal opportunity offender’ he called himself the king of hate. Phil attempting to retcon his own online history is so funny
I can’t believe he let something so stupid sounding come out of his mouth. 😂Equal Opportunity Offender sounds exactly like a villain from some lame overly safe new age Hollywood movie.
It's literately a one man's echo chamber without any confrontation. We can easily debunk all his lies in front of any public debate, BUT this guy hides inside his gated community and bans everyone that says truth or facts about him. He is the mots hypocritical person I have never seen on the internet. 😂
For real. It was spectacle... not comedy. People came to watch him be a moron and say absurd things. To laugh AT him. It was all children... children who enter a GTA lobby and just start yelling the N-word. Children that scream in the mic when something happens. Kids who think poop and boobs and swears are hilarious. That was his audience.
I love how he constantly harps on how he has so much experience from 15 years, yet he's begging for tips and only has a couple hundred viewers. Seems like he hasn't learned a thing
Phil has absolutely no expertise in anything. He's a complete luddite that couldn't even cobble together a streaming set up without someone in his audience literally picking everything he needed for him. He has no idea how games are made, how they're marketed or the business side of the industry. He just jumps to the most cynical conclusion and then fills in all the gaps with his assumptions which are always incorrect.
Reminds me of the "I can't get sponsors" & "I don't take sponsors cuz I'm not a shill" dichotomy. Dude is a gigantic fucking 🤡 and his supporters are thick as 💩
And there is no “they” either. Theres a market for being anti-woke. Woke, anti-woke, none of that shit has anything to do with anything & he knows that.
Same as him ranting that detractors had clipped him "out of context" to get him banned from platforms and sponsors, but says here that he used to be offensive. If it's offensive now, it was offensive then.
His demographic bs was just on the spot lying! When EVER have teenagers been honest about being teenagers?? So he would have had to personally poll his viewers back then to know they're teenagers... Oh, wait. Polls weren't on YT back then! Christ, he's insufferable
In the message I didn't mean be like he used to be again. He didn't read the whole message about suggesting that he doesn't come across like he dosn't have fun playing games anymore while might be to reason it comes across as boring.
It’s been more than a year since the side scrollers interview and he’s still trying to justify that slavery “joke.” If he really grew up, then why’s he still trying to convince everyone to that joke is kosher?
Fun fact: Did you know that people who lie a lot also have tendencies to hold grudges against their parents because they didn’t bought them a Wolverine figure when they were a kid
My dying grandpa gave me and my brothers 100 dollars each. My dad and stepmom made us give them the money to buy us our christmas gifts. I ended up getting a reburbished ps3 that costed 200 dollars (and i paid 100 for it, half the cost) meanwhile my stepmoms kids, all 4 of them got brand new ipod touches (150-300 dollars at the time) and 1 of them got a 200 dollar cell phone (this was back in 2007). Ill never let it go either
He doesn't understand, the only thing interesting about him to his dents is the drama around him. They want him saying outrageous things that they can fight about on twitter
It's so disgusting watching him digging at the back of his neck for zits and then looking at his fingers to see if he squeezed out anything interesting. 10 bucks says he'd sniff his fingers if he wasn't on stream.
Does he not realise he isn't a comedian just trying to make people laugh. He's a middle aged man playing video games on RU-vid. He thinks offending everyone is fine.
Phil wants to always complain how he can't say things. But then he wants to tell other people what they can and can't say and what they should think and do. If he's truly for some kind of freedom and a more lenient Internet, how about starting from number one? You can't have it both ways in a thing like this.
15 years ago his audience was teenagers between 13-19 and now his audience is mid-twenties to mid-thirties between 28-34, then they're the same people. The demographic has changed the people have not. Phil, it's basic math. Dunce.
DSP lack of being funny has nothing to do woke-ism. He's just not funny in the slightest, ever. I don't know why he's so insistent on being an inconsiderate asshole = funny, as though the only means for him to be funny is him being a cringy edgelord. Not even to mention that a big part of telling a good joke is in how it's delivered, and he just... couldn't deliver a joke if his life depended on it.
That's what I meant with the comment. Before dsp came across as someone that had fun with a game and it shows with it being entertaining. Now he just steam rolls threw a game like it's a chore that he dosn't want to be which is boring.
If any of this were true, Filthy Frank would’ve never been popular and The Goons wouldn’t be popular today. Phil has never been entertaining. He just sucks.
"I get why you had to change but you used to be more entertaining. You should find a way to be less boring now that you can't use edgy humor as a crutch." Phil: "My content is more meaningful now without that stuff. If you only like me for my old edgy humor it's time to move on." ??????????????????
There's a RU-vid channel I watch. Called TheDoo. His group makes fucked up jokes. Racial stuff, homosexual jokes, etc. He has over 6m subs. The difference between him and Phil, is that their jokes are actually FUNNY. You can get away with it if you're actually funny, which Phil is not.
Dark humor hasn't gone anywhere. It will never go anywhere. But Phil is one of these hacks who thinks "dark humor" just means "racism". Gotta adapt with the times, and you gotta work with your audience. If the room is telling you your joke isn't funny, then it isn't funny. If you can't adapt to the tastes of your target audience, guess what? You're a shitty performer.
I have tried to figure out why Phil thinks it's better to insult millions of people you don't know than to insult one person you do. I don't think my brain is soaked in enough gin to understand.
His content has "evolved"? More like he fell in line because he's scared to death of RU-vid doing what Twitch did to him. With all the shit he talks about RU-vid and his AdSense shenanigans, I'm amazed Google still allows him to operate his "business" with their resources. That's why he can say he is happy being "small time" because more eyes on him would be a disaster.
Entertaining people can be entertaining without joking about those topics. I don't mind that type of humor, but it's really the laziest and easiest type of humor. Low hanging fruit that requires little witt or life experience.
The only reason why he was even popular back in the day is because there wasn’t any more choices. It was him and like 10 others on all of RU-vid. 😂 now people got hella choices to watch.
Exactly. I used to watch him back in the day whenever I was too poor to get some new release, since I knew he’d have footage on day 1. Nowadays, day 1 footage is not impressive in the least, there’s not “Day 1 views” to be had unless you’re already a big creator.
He keeps saying I was known as the fill in the blank guy bro , I think it was meerkat who said it but hes like a rat in a cage and were all scientist doing experiments and reacting to said rat
He's fine to ha e considered himself an "equal opportunity offender," but when it's DSP's turn to be criticized, it's unfair, and he's the whipping boy of the internet. Do you wish you could go back and make those jokes, or did you change like you're always saying, DSP? You can't seem to ever make up your mind...
Most people who get lucky and do this for a job start with a few viewers and move up from there. DSP worked backwards and started with a lot and wittled his way down to 100 or so regards that white knight for him. Its sad.
Phil is IMMATURE and LAZY which is why crude, sexist and racial jokes (the ones he calls "dark humor") are the only types of humor he knows and understands. It's ALL he used during his early YT and Twitch days before he got kicked out. We've seen how totally clueless and perplexed he is during his react streams at submitted videos that contain parody and satire not to mention surreal and self deprecating humor. This is also why he couldn't help but make a slave trade joke during that scene because IT'S THE ONLY JOKE HE CAN THINK OF.
If your content needs racist """jokes""" to be interesting and/or funny then it's not worth anything in the first place. His Dead Space 2 jew bit wasn't funny in any context, it was dumb even not considering the sensitivity of it at all. This is pure cope.
Boondocks and South Park beg to differ. People also remember OG Modern Warfare lobbies fondly because they were offensive. If anything walking eggshells trying hard not to offend is boring.
@@Drums_of_LiberationAnd wtf do MW lobbies have to do with this? No one ever said that they were funny lol people only brag that they survived them or something, really weird
That's what I originally meant when I sent that message to dsp. Hus issue isn't all able the woke stuff. All he has is offensive stuff and with that gone he has nothing left. He didn't read the entire message live but I encouraged him to find a way to come across more entertaining.
It wasn't a dark joke. Jokes are funny. It was just the first racist thing that popped into his head and ever since the Side Scrollers he's been struggling to justify it as social commentary. It wasn't that either. It was an attempt at humor, as evidenced by the fact that Phil clearly thought it was hilarious. He laughed at his own joke and then repeated it. I'm offended that he thinks he's funny.
He made 3 "jokes" in the same play trough and they were all about drugging and selling teens and children at a slave market and That was the whole punchline of the "jokes".
What is wrong with Phil's brain lately, his content isn't boring because of that stupid 'W' word, his content is boring because he is outdated, washed up and not even changed his content style since he started and his content has only gotten worse over time. Leave it to Phil to lie about his situation, he made hateful, harmful slurs in the past.
IMO Phil is starting to realize he's on a sinking ship of a channel. Several whales have left over the past year, No real growth in his channel besides detractors especially after Side Scrollers and being memed on TikTok/Twitter for being trash at TOTK, the Argentian memberships have made him lose at least 1k a month from memberships, plus due to inflation and the increase of taxes in his area its costing him more into his already declining revenue. Now couple that with him having to pay enough to the feds and state for tax time to avoid trouble while also having enough to pay for his vices. It's not surprising he has been pulling every card he has to beg for cash (Bringing back Kat after 5 years, rebranding a channel to reupload old playthroughs, making a react channel, talking about making a 4th channel for politics etc)
Saying swear words or talking abkut touchy subjects ≠ not "woke" Phil is too alienated to understand common sense, he isolated himself from society and has no friends besides a wife who's literally routing
The dead space “hello Jew” Nazi jokes almost got him cancelled back in the day as offensive. He still makes scat and homophobic “jokes” for his teenage audience.
He just doesnt get that there is a group of people that are going to nitpick any thing he says no matter their morals bc they do not want him to succeed and that that group is completely distinct and holds entirely different sentiment than anyone that actually is watching him
"I've changed, I can't and don't say the stuff I used to in the past"...watching his old playthroughs "I ended up making the same joke as when I played the playthrough, I didn't go back and watch or anything and I'm saying the same jokes as before" hmmmmm
"Back in the day, no one complained about my Khammantary" Didn't he get banned over his infamous Nazi joke during his Dead Space 2 Playthrough? Also nice to know Pigroach is setting the stage for Pigroach Politics.
Holy shit the cope that the only reason snort man is not popular is because his content is too nice. There are so many examples of more successful creators that are more entertaining and don't have to resort to drama content. Phil just isn't entertaining enough
I did buy hades thanks to dsp by the way. I figured if someone like him that's a crappy gamer can do ok then there's hope for me. I'm half fan half detractor.
It is funny that dsp didn't read the full message. I do understand that things have changed. Dsp is no longer playing games to have fun it's all about the money and it shows. Dsp makes it hard to to be a fan of his. At least I never gave a single cent to him :)
Has anyone else basically never seen a single minute of Dave actually playing a game? Like I’ve seen a few negative highlights, but I’ve spent years watching this man talk about his content, and I don’t think I’ve actually seen more than an hour of it collectively
@3:46 getting eyes on his content, but he'll open his tweets once or twice a year for people to comment on them if he thinks it will get his channel attention...right... I also like how the person he was responding to said "your content puts me to sleep", but he claims his content has "evolved". @6:50 the problem with Phil's "honest" takes on ANYTHING is that they are mostly guided by ignorance or naivety. A lot of the time (for gaming anyway) he doesn't understand the mechanics of a game so he'll call it "bugged game mechanics". So he'll sit there and trash a game over something he perceives as bad, but in reality he just doesn't understand it, or he overlooked a key clue that would have guided him to the next step. I'm pretty sure he has done this to Balder's Gate 3.
It was kinda mean of me to write that it had to be sad but I'm only one of many that thinks this. I was looking forward to seeing how he does with bg3 but couldn't last 2 minutes without yawning. Even him raging doesn't help.
