#ButtGate
javascript:(function(){var g="#gamergate";var f=function(t){return t.split(' ').map(function(w){return w.toLowerCase()==g?w:'butt'}).join(' ')};var es=document.getElementsByClassName("tweet-text");for(var i=0;i<es.length;i++){if(es[i].innerText.toLowerCase().indexOf(g)>0)es[i].innerText=f(es[i].innerText)}})()

Let me code-golf this a bit:

javascript:void [].slice.call(document.querySelectorAll(".twitter-hashtag")).forEach(function(e){e.innerText=e.innerText.replace(/#gamergate/ig,"#buttgate");});

This targets the hashtag <a> tag rather than the full tweet's text, so it doesn't clobber any other hyperlinks in the tweet and affects multiple instances of the hashtag in the same tweet.

Mine replaces every word that isn't #gamergate with "butt" :)
