When you use the fact that you raised money for charity as a form of deflection against criticism for any oopsie you made. Very prominent on social media influencers and Youtubers.
Person 1: So have you heard about this guy who got himself into trouble on the internet?
Fan: WHY ARE PEOPLE SO FOCUSED ON HIS MISTAKES?! WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE CHARITY RUNS HE DID IN THE PAST?!
Person 1: How does raising money for charity negate these actions? There's no such thing as a Charity Shield."

Get the Amond shields mug.When a company or individual uses the diversity, equity, and inclusion of a show as a shield against criticism.
The way it's done is simple. Create a movie or show and make the cast diverse as insurance. When the movie/show starts to flop, ignore all the sane criticism and cherry pick the most offensive tweets and pretend that it's the norm. Then proceed to blame the fans as toxic, racist, sexist, transphobic, etc.
Doing this gets you free publicity, and increases the reputation of your company with people who believe the narrative. You may also get more viewers who are curious about the controversy, or rabid supporters who then believe that watching the movie/show is a moral imperative for minority rights.
This basically ensures that even if the movie/show is bad, you will still get a return on the investment.
