What did their friends and acquaintances do to deserve the bill?

Sorry but this sounds a little bit backward to me. Helping a friend in need or being altruistic is never a punishment. It's like refusing to donate money to some cause because what did I do to deserve that? Really an odd statement.

Nothing, but GoFundMe isn't an obligation, it's an ask.

Until "hi how you doing, I saw you decided not to fund my father's healthcare" or "wow, $30, he makes 200k a year! What an asshole!"
