The incident sparked a wide range of reactions online. Some criticized his decision to leave valuables in the car, highlighting safety concerns, while others sympathized with him, condemning the audacity and jealousy behind the act. Many, however, have focused on Duke's composure, pointing to the luxury of being so wealthy that even the theft of a Lamborghini and the loss of valuables do not seem to faze him. For some, his response served as inspiration, with one user commenting on their motivation to “try harder” to achieve a similar level of success. The incident is also reminiscent of other alarming cases involving streamers, such as in 2023, when Twitch streamer Justfoxii revealed that a viewer had set his car on fire.
Similarly, in July, Twitch streamer Fanum encountered police during the Dominican Day parade in New York, resulting in his Lamborghini being impounded. Fanum said the officers seemed more interested in driving the luxury car than addressing any legitimate concerns and also announced his intentions to sue the NYPD following the incident, which resulted in the extraction of firearms during his live stream.
