When people decides who does or doesn’t have the right to like something or just disses on your interests and hobbies or likes or passions in general. I’ve often seen this done with the older generation who look down on the younger generations for their music taste. I saw a meme my aunt had posted with Kanye West sitting with Paul Mcartney and the meme said “if you don’t know the guy on the right (Paul) but you know the guy on the left (Kanye) I feel like slapping your parents. That’s considered gate keeping

Another form of gate keeping is hating on someone who wears a T shirt of a band they don’t listen to. They just like the T shirt for whatever reason.

Then there’s also the type of gate keeping of grouping an entire generation based on a single incident. For example calling Gen Z the tide pod generation. Although I have been guilty of doing this before since Gen Z can be sort of bully’s at times about other generations

Does this type of stuff bug anyone else?
