GamerGate in Brief
GamerGate is a hashtag and quasi-"movement" of gamers around the world that began in August of 2014. #NotYourShield is a sister hashtag, created to lend a greater voice to female and minority gamers who supported #GamerGate and who were dismissed and ignored by the games media.
Beginning in 2014 the video games media, spurred by a scandal involving one of their own, launched a vicious attack on gamers and gamer culture. Their goal was the self-professed slander of "gamer" as an identity and the pushing of a "Social Justice" political agenda into the world of videogames through cronyism, censorship, and collusion within the videogame trade press and mainstream media.
The united backlash by the global gamer community against this dishonest media campaign became the event known to the world as #GamerGate. This is their story.

Far from being unbiased, the GamerGate Wikipedia page was altered away from describing the ethical problems in the videogame press, and edited to reflect only what the "reliable sources" in the games media itself were reporting: The very same lies and slander about gamers that GamerGate had risen to oppose.
