Some netizens voiced out their point of view on the said incident.
“This is so toxic that making comments about non-necessary things and replying a non-sensible response is drastically rampant nowadays. If you don’t understand the context and the idea of what they’re doing, then don’t fckin watch. First of all, they sent their deepest condolences to that person. I just cannot see the point of you saying they’re homophobic when in fact they have Allan K and Paolo B as their regular hosts.” -Donny Cherreguine
