a certain amount of gatekeeping is good, actually
Even if it is the counterargument would be that no one knows where the line should be drawn between maintaining community standards and being arbitrarily exclusive.
If you can't trust people to be fair-minded then they shouldn't get a say in who is "good enough" to be in the conversation at all.
Not saying I feel this way myself, I'm just looking at it from the other side.
