| − | '''#NotYourShield''' is a [[index.php?title=Twitter|Twitter]] hashtag related to, though not fully aligned with, [[index.php?title=GamerGate|GamerGate]]. It has many different meanings to many different people, but one of its primary focuses is to highlight the diversity of gaming and of "Gamers". It also stands to be a symbol that corrupt journalists, media companies and bloggers are 'not your shield' from criticism.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The name of the hashtag comes from the belief that gaming journalists are trying to use their supposed support for minorities in gaming as a shield against criticism. Since it was created, it has gathered approximately 622,000 tweets as of February 2015.<sup>[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]</sup>

| |
| − | | |
| − | #NotYourShield was started by an anonymous [[index.php?title=4chan|4chan]] user on September 3, 2014, responding to a call to organize on a #GamerGate thread on /v/.

| − | <blockquote>Something like<br />

| |
| − | | |
| − | The #NotYourShield tag has gone on to be a point of contention for some people, such as Matt Lees,<sup>[[#cite_note-6|[6]]]</sup> calling the tag a form of "weaponized minority". Many people decry the idea of weaponized minorities, citing the fact that thinking minorities are gullible/stupid enough to be tricked into something is racism in and of itself.<sup>[[#cite_note-7|[7]]]</sup> The concept of "weaponizing minorities" has been parodied by #NYS and #GG supporters.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Another common reaction to the #NotYourShield tag is to call the people behind the tag "sockpuppets", a term for someone running an alternate, or fake, account in an effort to deceive others by garnering fake support or opposition of a topic. People who have used the #NYS tag have often responded with additional photos and datestamps indicating when the photos were taken,<sup>[[#cite_note-8|[8]]]</sup> proving their identities.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some critics of #GamerGate, including Dan Olsen,<sup>[[#cite_note-9|[9]]]</sup> have accused #NotYourShield of being an attempt to deflect criticism by using the hashtag's participants as a shield. While this practice certainly exists, the primary purpose of #NotYourShield is to allow minorities and women who support #GamerGate to speak out in favor of the movement and to criticize those who use them as a shield to deflect criticism.
