Product placement
Dan and Phil: A YouTube channel/online personality duo. They ACT by having a stated stance against bigots and conservatives, which is used to define the subject's character. Removing them would change the subject's characterization. They merely APPEAR as a reference point for the creator's argument. Removing them would not change what happens in the video.
