I think gamer gaters have become so insecure that they spin and reach anything that mentions them as a joke into a scandal. It amazes me that people take something this far fetched seriously.
First how can people say that using a sock puppet is that same as calling someone a sock puppet? It's not, even if people have been saying that they are that just makes it topical.
However those that insist that it is calling #notyourshield sock puppet. That isn't racist, it isn't sexist it's saying you're being used. Used by gamergaters as a shield in fact.
Saying someone is being used isn't racist even if you say a group of people by any term to group them, black women lgbt. Being used isn't a derogatory statement.
It's like gamergaters found the one way to see the dress as white and gold. Even though it's blue and black such a narrow point of view to get easily offended over is disingenuous and losses many rational thinking allies from the cause.
