#28 Smurfs and cheater's do exist but they are a small percentage of the player base as to not affect ones elo in any meaningful way.

That's what I meant ... Gatekeeping doesn't exist since smurfs and cheaters are a small percentage of the base

Some people have such fragile egos that they have to blame anyone/anything for their own inadequacies. Sad really.

Noam Chomsky is a gatekeeper. James Corbett made a video on him. He presumes to be an outsider critiquing the system. Evidence shows he won't critique the Federal Reserve or 9/11 for example.

Many doctors coming out now and admitting the jab was harmful might be “gatekeepers”; trying to steer the narrative down a path that can be controlled. E.g. that it was all because of “negligence” and “lack of regulation” rather than wilful life shortening….

Is he still alive? He did a few better things but is over-rated.

I thought the Covid jab was crazy for healthy people. They could be making themselves dependent on it for life. Other reasons too.

There's no way the Covid jab was wilful life shortening but all the same, people are just dumb to believe the experts because the experts deal in stats and stats don't deal with individuals but with the group.
