      These points being interpreted as “gatekeeping” is wild.

          I disagree because someone sharing their opinion does not limit others from accessing the content. Edit if others aren’t targeted during the opinion sharing

          Someone saying “blue isn’t a good color” doesn’t make blue less accessible, and their opinion isn’t authoritative in some access based way.

          Gatekeeping to me would be flaming someone if they don’t know some nuance about some character in one particular episode then saying they shouldn’t be watching trek at all. They aren’t a “real fan.”

          But we disagree on this most likely. I didn’t @ you or reply to you directly as I didn’t want to slap fight. I was just discussing with OP who has since deleted. So, dead thread I guess. To be clear: I was addressing the votes primarily.

          The original statement surely is a weak opinion on its own, which was hashed out below.

              Edit.meh this isn’t worth it

              I’ll edit and close by saying I DO agree with your final sentence. That is very true.
