Okay, this hashtag has its roots in the Quinnspiracy/Gamergate debacle, as a way for minorities to speak up against this, as well as tell gaming journalists to stop using minorities/women as a means of deflecting the issue at large. It originated in this particular thread. I will quote the conversation;
"WHO /MINORITY/ HERE? I'm like 2/3 of the things these faggots say they are fighting for, and when I engage them on Twitter (WITH MY FUCKING PERSONAL ACCOUNT) they ignore me. Jesus Christ this is getting frustrating, I might as well be a white male for these faggots."
"Something like
>#NotYourShield
And demand the SJWs stop using you as a shield to deflect genuine criticism"
Currently, it is having a great effect on Twitter and tumblr, and I felt that it deserves an article for extra visibility.
As much as I hate hashtag articles, I felt that this one could use the KYM oomph.
And I want SJWs to suffer trying to comprehend this.
Here is an article at One Angry Gamer discussing the hashtag.
