IShowSpeed reacted to the IShowMeat situation by asking his viewers to put themselves in his shoes. He later asked his viewers to think how they would feel if their privates were to get leaked on the internet while millions of people were watching the stream. He also asked his viewers to feel what it’s like to see others laughing at you, calling “IShowMeat”, and reposting it. Speed then got completely emotional, broke character, and shouted at his viewers, asking, “How the f**k would you f**king feel”. He concluded by saying that all of this happened because of a dumba*s accident.
The clip was uploaded on X (Twitter), and a lot of users empathized with him. Commenters made it quite apparent that Speed did not deserve such an incident. While a Twitter user commented that he at least got to learn from his mistake, another user, Dalah, commented that he genuinely felt bad for him.

Despite the positivity, a few commenters worsened the situation. A commenter wondered why Speed was acting as if it was not his fault.
