K-Pop fans bombard #WhiteLivesMatter to drown out racist posts
K-Pop fans have united once again to overwhelm the #WhiteLivesMatter hashtag to flood it with anti-racism messages and fancams.
Korean Pop fans are the internet's favourite community at the moment, especially after drowning out racist messages on a trending Twitter topic yesterday (3 June).
They decided to take down #WhiteLivesMatter by uniting as a relentless force and posting fancam videos and messages of anti-racism, drowning out the racist posts that dominated the hashtag previously.
EAT SHIT MOTHERFUCKERS.

This comes only a few days after K-pop fans united to spam the Dallas police iWatch app with fancam videos to help protesters in the Black Lives Matter protests. The Dallas police department were requesting videos of "illegal activity from the protests" to help them identify protesters.
