YouTube star MrBeast has taken the internet by storm again after uploading a video in which he and his team helped 1,000 deaf people regain their hearing. The six-minute feature has received over 27 million views and 2.5 million likes in just one day. Despite the positive response, some Twitter users have expressed dissatisfaction with the YouTuber's charitable efforts:

Popular streamers and internet personalities have chimed in with their thoughts regarding the video. One True King (OTK) co-founder Zack "Asmongold" poked fun at those who seemingly hated on MrBeast for his philanthropic endeavors and speculated on what they could possibly complain about. The MMORPG streamer sarcastically remarked:

"Oh, yeah! Oh, boy! He should not have done that. Oh, bro! Do you think this kid wants to be farmed for content? Oh, dude! And he forced this kid to hear?! 'How dare he.' Yeah, bro. He's trying to... he's trying to erase deaf culture. Obviously!"

Dream, Tectone, and online community react to MrBeast's recent philanthropic video

In a video uploaded on May 7, 2023, Jimmy stated that he and his team purchased "cutting-edge" hearing technology worth millions of dollars. The Kansas native claimed it is different from traditional hearing aids because it can "analyze" people's specific hearing needs. He elaborated:

"Even entire families hear their loved ones again. But they are only a few of the 1,000 that we are going to help hear again today. We got our hands on over $3 million worth of cutting-edge hearing technology, that, unlike old hearing aids, analyzes people's specific hearing needs, allowing them to hear again without causing any damage."
