On Your Six is an internet slang term derived from aviation jargon. It means that someone or something is directly behind you, coming from the six o’clock direction. In internet slang, it is used to convey the idea that someone is closely monitoring you or following your every move.

Examples:

1. During a game of online multiplayer, one player warns another by saying “On your six!” This means that an opponent is approaching from behind and is about to attack the player.

2. In a online forum discussion, someone might write “I saw your post and I’m on your six on this issue.” Here, it means that the person fully supports and agrees with the original poster and is ready to defend their viewpoint.
