You dense motherfucker, Dave does not want to argue or talk back. He only blocks people , runs away, and talks shit behind their back when they can't response (Ex. Recent B04 playthrough). Second, the fuck are we "backstabbing", when in reality in has been dave who has been backstabbing people for 10 years straight. Even to his own only friends during the Project 7 saga. This guy either a ill informed or just delusional if he think Dave is a "poor innocent victim".
Yes, but if you backstab you are not better than Phil! Even so backstabbing means something very different but it sounds very fancy. In order to backstab someone you have to be a friend/fan in the first place and suddenly switch sides or be some kind of spy. I guess he's not aware people did exactly what he proposes: Tweet him, get blocked. Message him in the chat, get banned and ridiculed. Give him criticizm when he asks for criticizm, get ignored, laughed at and probably also banned. He's also not aware that most people don't want to change good ol' Phil (this is literally impossible) but to warn people to not fall for his actions, you don't need to alarm Phil in the process.
Unless it's suddenly completely okay to take a blind eye for morally bankrupt actions which scratch on the door of criminal activities. When are you allowed to point out literal bullshit, Fates? If you're DarkSydePhil who "backstabs" everyone who encounters him? Phil won't message the developers directly and tell them their game sucks, why is he allowed to do that, Fates? Oh darn, free speach, oh my, where did that come from, oh no.
. . . it's like how difficult would it have been to make an actually interesting "anniversary" shirt?
The bigger question is: Who would wear that?
And yes, apparently it's difficult when the best idea is to throw some words onto a shirt and taking some risks in copyright by using "Youtube" and "Twitch" (right behind the word "hate"). He doesn't even need to write "10 year legacy" or some shit on the shirt, just let the unpaid people design something new which is only available for a limited time. This is "anniversary" enough. Or redesign some old merch to celebrate the
massive change Phil made through (he didn't, but that's not my point).
A shirt that says "Hate" will look really bad to a normie LOL. White supremacist gear.
Best merch is neutral merch. Something you can wear in public which doesn't let you look like a very strange person, unless you want to look like that (I like neutral gaming shirts which doesn't shout: HEY THIS SHIRT IS FROM THIS SPECIFIC GAME. YOU KNOW THAT BECAUSE ITS WRITTEN IN BIG LETTERS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU). Imo, best is when people who know the reference can smile about it and the rest of the public folks doesn't recognize there is a reference and just think it has a nice design. And it shouldn't look like it's designed for little kids, unless a little kid wears it.
Writing Hate, DarkSydePhil, Youtube, Twitch, DSP, King, doesn't really do it for me. It's a cringe-shirt.
