He wasn't worried about losing his Twitch partnership either. Nor was he worried about ever getting in trouble on Twitch. He should know by now that certain people take such statements as a challenge.
He has to be aware that he's a nobody, and if you're willing to do the work you can get him in trouble because he does break so many rules. TJ managed to take away his streamlabs, I managed to get articles written about him, Anonymouse managed to wreck his super secret Discord and several other people did amazingly funny things he said couldn't be done. All things he said can't be done were done. If you're well spoken, polite and willing to look for the right door to knock on, you're Phil's worst nightmare.
I need to point out this isn't me telling you to fuck with him. I'm simply gobsmacked that Phil has learned fuck all over the years. He should just shut up and move on. He should play his shitty little games and focus on begging for the few years that he has left, and not give people challenges that are at this time career ending for him.
There are a lot of things at play here. He clearly hates the idea of expending any energy in order to stay a step ahead of the community of hall monitors watching his every move, that he already despises the existence of on basic principle. His immaturity ensures that he'll never stop giving us ways to bust him, and his entitlement and laziness ensure that he'll never come to grips with the fact that he must choose: match his detractors, or stop being such a target.
He also hates the idea of acknowledging that we're up to the task of keeping up with his bullshit, despite having years worth of reasons to reverse that policy, because he's just so damn stubborn on everything. And his ego is obviously making things worse, it's like it erases the past constantly in order to maintain its existence.
Although we have to give him one thing, and that's that he HAS shown awareness of a way he can be royally fucked: his parents. Phil has gone out of his way before to establish them as being essentially cavemen compared to him, and that is very obviously out of sheer terror of the thought of someone like yourself managing to have a nice conversation with one of them, especially Linda.
And in thinking on that, it's pretty funny that the worst thing a troll could ever do to Phil is talk to his parents about all the things he has been lying to them about for years. Not get his water shut off, not send Teespring a video of his racist humor, not even maintain a thread on his Champions spending. Just talk to his mom and dad, like normal people, and be honest about some things, unlike him.
I hope the thought of THAT happening keeps him up at night in a cold sweat. Regardless of the likelihood, it very much should, because holy shit would his life SUCK after that.
