Not only that. While he wants to have the safety and isolation of being the underdog little guy who can take potshots at bigger streamers and be safe due to his obscurity, he also wants the adoration and respect he thinks he deserves for being a 13 year veteran in on-demand and livestreamed begging services. I bet he unironically wants some sort of scheme to be in place where he gets royalties for people using the word "playthrough" because he thinks he coined the term and invented "raw" gameplay videos. He hates the fact that he still has to play videogames and beg for people to throw money at him. He has a 13 year begacy for Mammon's sake! He wants money to just appear in his account while he lives a life of comfort and luxury. Now I'm sounding like a broken record here but we all know that he could've had that life where he has money just appearing in his account every month without him having to move a finger, all he had to do is invest his early Youtube fuck you money into something. Fucking anything. Instead he bought stupid gamer statues and overpaid for some middle unit khando that he doesn't even fully own yet.The part that makes me angry with phil is the way he pretends he's just a small time streamer and an "internet nobody" and shouldn't even be on the radar of bigger youtubers/streamers, which completely ignores the fact that he was one of the big gaming youtubers at one point in time. Of course you still have notoriety even if your number of viewers has plummeted, you were one of the popular gaming channels before.
He acts like bigger streamers shouldn't even know who he is since he only gets like 200 viewers or whatever and hides behind just being a little guy with a small audience. Phil portrays himself like he's some small up and coming streamer instead of a former youtube star whose career has been in a sharped decline for years now, due to his own toxic and disgusting behavior. The big guys are supposed to just leave phil alone since he's a little guy. Phil has free reign to talk all the shit he wants but the second someone hits back, they're the bad guy for going after poor little small time phil.
He wants big gaming companies and streamers astronomically bigger than him to show him respect, defer to him, to take the knee and kiss his gouty ring. He can't get more than 200 viewers on a stream without there being some drama involved yet he thinks that someone like Ninja or Pewdiepie should listen to his sage advice when it comes to gaming and livestreaming. It's kind of like the structure of the mafia where the Don keeps low and doesn't get his hands dirty at all and his immediate underlings are the ones who call all the shots and do all the crimes after the Don tells them what to do.
