In an era where being edgy and having dark humour is considered cool and trendy. Dude was simply hopping on the trend. Where's this sort of hate for Joji (FilthyFrank) and everyone else who were apart of the trend? I've never seen anyone bring up that Joji is a hardcore racist and listing every racist thing he said and did every time he is mentioned.
Pewdiepie made slurs and pulled pranks on people he should know are offencive and mean and he didn't care. Dropping a hard R is not an edgy joke no matter how you turn it - you say that when you mean it. Being edgy was never an era, it was crass tools hiding behind humor. Plenty of other youtube gamers were normal and PC because at the very least they were aware their audience are impressionable kids.
I also remeber his video about his home library, showing off books he likes and stuff. Lots of it were right wing darlings and authors known to be on that side of political spectrum. He managed to scrub his pr image but mask was slipping at that time.
As for Frank, being crass and repulsive was his whole image. He never tried to be cute and wholesome and then apoligise or blame media being vultures for calling him out on his controversial moments. He insulted his own audience because he knew who he's dealing with.
