Idubbbz Releases Content Cop on Ethan Klein, Sparking Backlash and Claims of Betrayal – ryan
Youtuber Ian “Idubbbz” has reignited online drama with the release of a new content cop episode, this time focused on longtime creator ethan small, also known as H3H3.
The video dropped on April 16, 2025, and Quickly Drew polarized reactions, with many fans accusing idubbbbz or backstabbing one of his few public defenders.
The Content Cop Series, Known for its Deep Dives into Controversial Internet Figures, returned after a long hiatus. In this latest video, idubbbbz criticized small for what he describes as inconsistent political stances, particularly around the Israel-Palestine conflict, and for his reliance on public validation in addressing controversies. The episode follows Klein’s Own Recent “Content Nuke” Targeting Political Streamer Hasanabi.
Many fans on x (formerly twitter) expressed disappointment, noting little had supported idubbbbz during earlier backlash over his past content. “Imagine doing this to one of the only people that supported you,” one user wrote. Another Commented, “Ethan defended Him through Thick and Thin, and this is what he does.”
This is the worse option wtf !!! Imagine doing this to one of the only people that supported you become a loser 💀

Idubbbz making a content cop in 2025 does not really work anymore because he’s lost pretty much most of people’s respect towards his opinions.

The video also listed Hasanabi as a contributor, alongside several other creators, adding another layer to the controversy. Hasan and small previous co-hosted the leftover podcast, but their collaboration ended amid public disagreements over the middle east conflict.
Speculation is now swirling about the potential fallout, especially as lena ayad from the h3 team is scheduled to participate in Creator Clash 3. With emotions running high, the situation has sparked new divisions within the youtube and streaming communities.
