The streamer has received widespread support from the community and from fellow streamers.
This included Rachel “Valkyrae” Hofstetter, who congratulated Disguised Toast and said that the allegations against him and his response opened her eyes as well. Daphne “39daph” was of the opinion that the controversy had been exaggerated, as seen in the tweet below. She called the people who were offended by Disguised Toast’s jokes “stans” and “creepy a** kids.”
Tyler “TrainwrecksTV” Niknam responded to Disguised Toast’s post and said that the “crusade” against was orchestrated by “schoolchildren.” Niknam said that they should stop catering to these streamers, while Michael “Sonii” Sherman replied to his comment, as can be seen below.

Finally, streamers Yvonne “Yvonnie” NG and Leslie “Fuslie” Fu also posted comments defending Disguised Toast.
Twitch streamer Imane “Pokimane” Anys also responded in one of her live streams. Pokimane hadn’t spoken to Disguised Toast about the situation when she made the comments:
“Cancel culture in my opinion has a lot less to do with holding people accountable typically than it does with fuelling one’s ego and feeling better about yourself for putting someone else down for things they have done in the past. And the reason I saw this is that the majority of the stuff that is brought up in this cancel culture is from years ago. I hope you guys can see from our past actions that when we feel something becomes truly problematic and can potentially harm others or is truly that bad, we do condemn that person proivately or personally. Obviously none of us think that Toast has said or done crosses any boundary like that.”
During the live stream, streamer Hafu had similar ideas. She said each and every streamer might have said something that could be considered problematic at the end of the day. However, she defended Disguised Toast and said that she herself has “crossed the line many times” like her fellow streamer. She called on the community to stop trying to “cherry-pick” such incidents.
