On October 27, 2025, a video of Valkyrae went viral on Reddit and X, in which she commented on Blaire "QTCinderella" facing homophobia and racism allegations.In the video, Valkyrae stated that QTCinderella's "tone doesn't help," as she "inherently sounds really angry all the time." Furthermore, the co-owner of 100 Thieves described Blaire as the "Whitest woman" she knows. She elaborated:"I did tell her, I was like, 'QT, I do think your tone doesn't help because you inherently sound really angry all the time. You sound really...' And she knows. I was like, 'You're very blunt. I think it's your tone. You're blunt. And it just comes off poorly, especially, you know,' and I was like, 'You're also the Whitest woman I know, and it also is just, you know, you being so White, it just doesn't help.' It doesn't help. Like, I know her. I know her heart. It's just because she wants to help, but I feel like there's ways we can do it better."These statements resulted in netizens accusing Valkyrae of being racist towards White people:"Well that’s incredibly racist" X user @d20woodworking wrote."Valkyrae is calling for a race war?"
