How is my comment “gatekeeping” by any stretch of the defintion? I had one comment and the one making jest that you replied to. I only asked that there should be a catch all term and provided examples to go with it. How is that gatekeeping…?

It’s more to due with social media tropes. Someone sees a downvoted comment and does the same without even reading.

Edit and more proof it has nothing to do with the stuff you claimed, it’s now upvoted since the initial wave of people have stopped and people who care to read the meat of the comments now have and have established balance.
