It was made quite clear that these guys are not doing what they do out of altruism or a simple desire to do good works. It was also reported that their presence in these disaster areas hamper efforts by local authorities and also that they spread conspiracy theories and anti-government propaganda. There was one particular guy that they focused on who was quite open about his white supremacist leanings and whom the segment informed us had not even gone to any of the affected areas to offer any help. He's basically just a white supremacist influencer. You probably won't watch the segment but I think you should.
