It’s more complicated than that. As in Sam Hyde has actually been involved in some of this drama. The creator of this video didn’t include footage of him out of being a Hyde or MDE fan.
iDubbbz (Ian) did a documentary on Sam Hyde and they were both trying to make each other look silly with the footage they had. Sam released his edit but it took ages and a lot of pressure for Ian to release his side. After this, they had a falling out which later impacted Creator Clash and ruined Ian’s credibility.
Creator Clash 1 was successful, but Creator Clash 2 was very unsuccessful and ended up $250k in the red for a few reasons. One of the big ones is that Ian removed Froggy Fresh from the card (facing a tonne of backlash for doing so) and tried suing him over fees relating to the event simply because he was friends with Sam Hyde, and also over a joke Froggy posted online about signing up to Ian’s girlfriend’s OnlyFans.
Last year Ian released a video titled “I miss the old iDubbbz” which was kinda prompted by the backlash he got towards CC2. He effectively apologized for his old Content Cop series and for his old edgy humour and acted like he gained a tonne of empathy.
H3 (Ethan) used to be friends with Fr0gan and HasanAbi until October 7th, and then they had beef over their stances on Israel & Palestine, he and his wife (who served in the IDF because Israeli citizens have to do mandatory military service) got labelled a Zionist and had been relentlessly harassed ever since. One of the people in their circle spread false rumors that Ethan wasn’t cleaning up dog shit and was endangering his kids, and so actually maliciously called Child Protective Services on him. Ian of course omitted all context of this and spun footage in a way that made Ethan look like an unhinged asshole.
Sam is a straight up alt-right, antisemitic shit bag who gives money to nazis. If you include him in your video without even saying that he’s a bad guy I’m going to assume you support him.
And to boil down the Froggy Fresh situation to simply be over a joke is crazy to me.
Ian’s growth has been one of the most amazing things I’ve seen online and I can’t understand people who hate him. They always bring up shit that would, at most, bring me mild annoyance if it was about someone I hated online, but they say that this somehow makes Ian a horrible person. Insane.
Well yes, it was in very large part because Froggy had chosen to associate with Sam Hyde, by having them train together for CC2 and plan to collab on their own content. And Ian’s beef with Hyde was that he insulted his girlfriend, which was what got him banned from CC1 in the first place.

My problem with iDubbbz isn’t that he stopped doing Content Cop and that he ditched his old edgy persona. I completely understand why he, Filthy Frank and others pivoted away, because none of this would fly on 2025 YouTube.
The issue is that he’s a hypocrite.
You don’t make this elaborate apology video condemning your past content for its cruelty and “cwy hawassment” at people you don’t like, and then proceed to drop a Content Cop on H3 a year later because your viewer count is dwindling and you need to defend your political streamer buddies who had been relentlessly harassing and swatting Ethan on false claims that he and his wife are Zionists.
In his initial Content Cop video, he didn’t even once mention CPS, despite using clips from a H3 podcast where Ethan was discussing the time when Snark had called CPS on him over falsified claims (spread by people within their clique) that he was neglecting his kids.
When Ethan’s response to the Content Cop was far better than the hit-piece iDubbbz dropped on him, it was clear Ian fucked up.
So if Ian’s sin is that he didn’t mention some phone call, why did Ethan and Hila talk shit about him and Anisa long before they even got cps called on them?
Did he denounce or criticize Sam after bringing him up?

And then… He dropped a Content Cop on H3 about two weeks ago which proved his apology video was full of shit.
