Eh, he's definitely shifted his rhetoric a lot since his early days of fame. At the start, he wasn't nearly so overtly politically focused - he wasn't always talking about government or elected officials. But in order to maintain an audience, and thus a continued stream of money, this is what these folks (almost) all end up doing. At the end of the day the incel crew is his core constituency and he has to give them what they want, or they'll find someone else to pay attention to.
Which isn't to say he isn't a true believer because who the hell even knows what he actually believes, if anything. Because it's absolutely the case that "who he's always been" is a total loon.
