After seeing the gist of the post, Asmongold commented on the situation and shared his thoughts on those seemingly hating MrBeast for his philanthropic efforts.

According to the Austin, Texas-based personality, MrBeast's haters were "stupid" because they did not care about helping those in Africa and instead wanted to "look good" on social media. He stated:

"People are mad at MrBeast for this kind of stuff. 'People think that about MrBeast, never actually directly (or) indirectly helped anyone in Africa.' Because they don't give a f**k about helping people in Africa. They give a f**k about looking good on social media because they're stupid!"

The One True King (OTK) co-founder made a sarcastic remark and recalled a time when the Kansas native was criticized after curing 1,000 people's blindness:

"That's right, guys. MrBeast, you know, we thought he did enough harm in the world by curing 1,000 people of blindness. And he said, 'Wait a minute. Hold my beer. I'm going to go even further than that. I got another one in me!' And he goes and gives 20,000 kids pairs of shoes. Can you believe that? He can't get keep getting away. I know, this is disgusting and I see this on Twitter, regularly."
