Here's his mom:Presence wrote:Re: His mom: Has she ever been in any of his videos? I know he's mentioned they are "cool" now, but I wonder if she's just like him--someone who tries really hard to seem open-minded and evolved, but, just below the surface, she's still making decisions, and judging people, based on her past.
Re: His ex: Sorry for bombarding you guys with my armchair psychologist theories about Phil, but the details that are brought up here, the more I find this fascinating...
So, Phil has probably his first serious relationship with a black chick. He even sticks by this woman when he gets disowned by his parents. She cheats on him. He's devastated. Now, here we are, years later, and he can barely contain his disdain for women and his own racist leanings. How bizarre is it that his ex had such and impact on his life and, I think, to this day, he's still lashing out at her through his Twitter tantrums.
Re: The video: I got the feeling they were references, but I have no idea what he was referencing.
The video was made seven years ago. Obviously the pain from the ex was still raw (even though he was with Lyndsey at the time that video was made). Funny how, like I mentioned above, the pain is still there to this day, but, rather than being expressed in song, it's expressed in sarcastic tweets.

She's a pretty woman. I wonder how she ended up with Phil's dad? I think you've articulated quite flawlessly what a lot of women who land on his channels + social media accounts end up picking up on. It's intriguing but it's also really frustrating+depressing because the women around him who don't fit into the category of family will continue to be collateral damage + have to bear the weight of his unaddressed issues.
