To the last hypocrite entry, the troper that added this seems to confuse hypocrisy and changing your mind on something. Hanson has stated numerous times that he regrets using the n-word, (for example in his interview with the Anime Man). Everyone and their dog even vaguely related to Newgrounds animations has used the word before in the early 2000s, which is why it feels like the troper just personally dislikes Arin and feels like justifying their dislike for him by dredging it up in [current year]. It's consistent with a pattern that led to the creation of groups like the rantgrumps subreddit, where it started out as a venting space for stupid things Arin did in games, and devolved into an insane hodgepodge of foamy-mouthed conspiracy theorists that make their sole existence proving that Arin/another grump is a horrible moral person.

Another comment:

He tends to treat the Game Grumps as a serious entertainment company, with adult comedy content as their bread and butter. Their more recent endeavors have them adhering to very child friendly policies, such as limiting their swearing, or making cartoonish clickbait-style thumbnails and titles for their videos (as opposed to the simple more straightforward format of listing what number in a series they were doing, the standard format beforehand)

Yes, this did happen, but not because he's a hypocrite, it's because the algorithm forces him to. You can sit on your high horse and say that he should run his company more poorly out of some backwards notion of integrity, but Hanson has employees to provide for, and You Tube frequently changes the rules of what gets recommended. For example: Axing multiple part numbers because viewer retention isn't high enough. Longer/shorter videos, policy on language, etcetera. While it does suck that You Tube does this, what would we have him do instead? Fire a couple of people because ad revenue doesn't support their wages anymore?

I'm not going to outright remove the entries because I'm not a regular here and that would seem invasive, but I do want to suggest softening these two entries somewhat, because while it's worth mentioning, it feels overly mean-spirited and/or taken without the necessary context to portray someone behaving worse than they actually are.

Alright, so now I am confused on how to classify this ... Red Oni, Blue Oni, seems the page already has an entry stating that Arin is the blue oni and Danny (and Jon) are the red oni, but I was always under the impression that Arin was the red oni as he's more prone to fits of rage or manic excitement, while Danny always seems more relaxed and happy, and only ever seemed annoyed or amused by anything bad that happens.

Can I replace Danny's quote to "Every fuck is a party" Legend of Zelda II episode 17
