   No, you're not an elitist for gatekeeping normies, even if you're called as such

     Gatekeeping is only bad when we do it

     Not ((( THEM)))

     Thing is gatekeeping is a part of PROTECTIONISM

     Which is massively lacking in today's society

     Consider if Mr. Bean would just walk into an ICU unit and demand to perform heart surgery on somebody who might die in a matter of minutes, and the surgeon would tell him to fuck off, is the surgeon an elitist?

     Well, there was a skit on that. Although the analogy still holds IMO

     Oh, I didn't know that, I wanted to use an example involving someone who will guaranteed fuck it up if he were to do something he's not supposed to do, and Mr Bean is the first that came up of someone both the west and east knows pretty well.
