It's not just the money, but it also aligns with Phil's honest viewpoints. There is Olympus Mon's evidence of him being a ignorant asshole. There's the Sleeping Dogs playthrough, where he mocked an Asian accent, mocked the Chinese language, there's the Scott Pilgrim Versus the World playthrough where he "joked" about the boss, who was an Asian character, by saying "I hate Asians! They're greasy, they smell, and I hate those slanty eyed faggots!" Everyone was like "Hey, WTF???" Also, let's NOT forget when he was in Bridgeport, his neighbors were having a block party and he dropped that he hates that he has to live "By the welfare people." and how they're "lazy, don't want to work.", and the sentence that shows the New England racist "This was a nice neighborhood before they moved in." Etc....His racist "jokes" aren't funny. I do think Phil is a racist, but of the New England kind.
Him being gassed up by KC and the gravy train with biscuit wheels is now here, he doesn't have to have the facade that *Snort* "I'm no longer that person, dood!" Phil, you were ALWAYS that person. You had to hide it, for fear of being cancelled. You did it back in 2010-2011 because it was the "cool" thing to do, but now the hoods are coming off and people that actually hold those thoughts are now coming forward and letting the world know that they're pieces of shit. Phil is no different.
This is also the same retard that had a "Top 10 Racist Moments", laughed when a tipper tipped him $14.88 and everyone in his chat was chanting the 1488 chant, one of his dents told him what it meant, he said "Uh, Fred Flintstone...uh, don't do that." while smirking.
