A hashtag movement started by a long-forgotten actor to fix video games journalism. It was started up shortly after a blog was published by Zoe Quinn's ex-boyfriend, detailing supposed transgressions she had committed during their relationship. There are a few people that take the movement very seriously and aren't into the whole "attacking people online" thing, but they're just wasting their time, because the vast majority of the people who associate with the movement are. It's been a clusterfuck from the word "go".
