It's pretty well established Phil is a massive hypocrite, anything he rails against will be something he does in the future when what he's currently doing isn't making enough money. Like when streaming just started becoming a thing and he bitched about that, or when minecraft became popular and he bitched about it, or when react content came along and he bitched about it. His basic strategy is to be obstinate when a trend occurs, wait a couple years until that thing isn't really super popular anymore, make a lazier version of that thing, then bitch that he isn't getting a massive influx of cash for doing the thing and blame his dents.
