Because back then, there was a wave of support for what he preached. Things like Gamergate, Comicsgate, and there was still a hate mob for Otaku things thanks to guys like Spoony popularizing the anti-weeb sentiment. But as Razorfist found himself to be more fringe due to his politics and his tastes, he feels like he has to be more extreme to prove his point. It's like with chihuahuas. When they see something big and threatening, they bark louder to emphasize that they're not running away.
What he doesn't understand is that his kind of politics is more suited for a purely political channel where he'd attract the people who devote themselves to this shit 24-7. Especially when Danny-boy goes full Trump-fan. There's no middle ground with him, and that will drive away the people who are there to talk about video games and not about politics, but reel in the kind of people who want to make Trump their Messiah.
Trump, like Razorfist, doesn't know when to bow out. His loss in 2020 is a clear sign that says one of two things: A) his magic is gone, especially if some geriatric Neocon Democrat beat him, or B) the political machine will NEVER let him win another election and NEVER let him run again.
It doesn't matter which one is true, the fact is, Trump should've made like a Christian and turned the other cheek, letting the Dems get their win while graciously bowing out and telling his faithful to pray to God for a better future. He could've just taken a plane to Monaco, sipped martinis on the beach in the company of bikini-clad babes, then when the country starts getting problems, especially the economic or diplomatic kind, he can come back and offer a solution, and make himself look like the better man. Instead, he acted like a spoiled crybaby who can't let things go.
Heh. Maybe that's why Razor loves him so much. Just as Razorfist was never able to let it go when Final Fantasy 7 beat his precious Deus Ex and Metal Gear Solid beat his precious Thief, Trump couldn't let 2020 go and raged like a monkey, further damning his political career and getting his own followers in trouble during January 6.
True enough. But at least it has an audience that can make him some money while keeping him out of trouble with the somewhat left-leaning leadership on Youtube. Becoming Spoony 2.0 and raging about how bad anime and Final Fantasy are makes Danny-boy look like a dork, especially in the case where he insulted Asa's wife, but it's a lot less risky than sticking to the Trump narrative while shitting on other people based on politics.
At least shitting on weebs is something that a sizeable number of nerds in the internet support, especially as anime and manga are becoming so dominant, that manga volumes are being sold in stores like Target along with anime-themed toys and merchandise, even as comic book stores go the way of the dodo. Obviously some nerds will be pissed off at that, especially the kind of nerds who love western comics, D&D-RPGs, and who were big fans of Spoony. Razorfist already started himself on that road, too, so I'm sure some former Spoony fans who loved to see him rip FF8 a new hole jumped over to Danny-boy's fanbase after Spoony dropped out of the game.
It's bullshit, but it's the kind of bullshit that can put food on the table and not get Danny-boy into trouble. The most trouble he'll have if he goes down that road of focusing on gaming and pop culture is that otakus, Witcher fans, and fans of games and movies that he's panned (ie. fans of games like say, Jedi Outcast) would get mad at him and his fanbase, but at the very least, tribes of nerds throwing shit at each other wasn't all that uncommon even a decade ago.
