Asmongold weighs in on Veibae receiving backlash for saying the "R-word," explains the "best way" to deal with Twitter drama

On May 23, 2023, fans informed Asmongold about the Veibae controversy. The former was unaware of the situation and joked if the online community found out that Veibae was dating Chance "Sodapoppin":

"The Vei drama? There's Veibae drama? What did she do? Did they find out that she has a boyfriend? Oh... Man, I'm not surprised. Yeah, I bet they're upset about that. Jesus! What happened?"

Viewers then provided context, claiming that some Twitter users were upset by Veibae's use of a slur during her Indie Debut livestream. When the co-founder of One True King (OTK) heard this, he said:

"Oh, wow! Wow! Oh, that'll do it. Oh, god! 'Said r**ard as a joke. Twitter raged and now attacking her and Silvervale.'"

A few moments later, Asmongold offered his opinion on the "best way" to handle Twitter drama:

"I mean, really. Here's the best way to deal with Twitter drama. Okay? If somebody says something rude to you, you just block them! Instantaneously! And if somebody else says something rude to you, you block them, too! It's actually so, so easy to make it go away. 'Block works every time.' It does! It's so crazy how you deal with this."
