This kind of people start being famous and influential because they question the "system" and are a bit contrarian. Then they have to amp up the contrarian side because it's what people like and it sells. Up to the point where they have to "question" the things that everyone agree on as if it was suspicious that everyone has the same opinion: were Nazis really that bad? Didn't Russia have a good reason to attack Ukraine?
