having never heard of it before it comes across as a negative when you first hear someone say it. not a good start
essentially it was invented on 4chan as a way to prove it wasn't about misogyny, and was started by white dudes pretending to be women and POC in an astroturf (IE fake grass roots) campaign. not sure how far its gotten though.
yeah dont you gamergaters realize, that when you sign on to 4chan there is a signal sent to your computer, to take your picture, and then run it threw the secret 4chan computer to determine your color and weight. no black men ever would go to an image board wear people post random things.
seriously people 4chan is a diverse place with sections for recipes, anime, games, LGBT, advice, Social , political and politically incorrect(never ,for the love of all that is holy, do you go into this section). it allows and absolutist free speech(to a certain point) that anyone(even the coloreds) are fine with visiting. yeah there are racist white fat guys as they exist in society, and such they exist on 4chan,facebook, myspace, etc. as totalbiscuit said" its a damn internet forum, not the Illuminati". to say that notyoursheild was an evil plot by 4chan. when you can look up the black man who started it, read that he had no problem expressing the fact that he did in fact start it, you can use twitter analytics clearly showing he started it, and he will admit that he regularly visits 4chan(as they are not an entity of misogyny living in a hollowed out volcano, they are a diverse group of people with a demographic better than the sites criticizing it). you must ask yourself who is the racist, the black man using a forum or the person calling him an uncle tom. stating that he is betraying his race by agreeing with some of the politics of fox news.(not conservative myself, but i am an adult, and realize that they aren't pure evil incarnate trying to destroy America.)
whats weird is i used to think everyone into tech knew about 4chan, as all the techy people in my school knew about 4chan and yeah most of these people were black. there were a lot of us into tech as well. noticed the same when i went to college. yet because all people who aren't in the know,only think of 4chan as a cabal of evil misogynist who leak nude pictures of celebrities. forgetting the fact that one guy posted those pictures to a forum. but hey i guess all facebook users are also evil for all the racist Confederates that use that site huh?
im sorry if this seems charged, but i feel that the whole "this was all a plot by the white guys of 4chan". is really racist.
