The problem with that argument is that people who have done that aren’t here to argue with you. You are stuck with those of us who haven’t been imprisoned shot and killed yet.
Your gatekeeping basically means nobody can be taken seriously until they are no longer capable of making their argument.
“You didn’t shoot someone yet? How can I possibly take you seriously.”

That exactly the kind of shit Nazis push.
I don’t think you know what gatekeeping is.
Saying it’s wrong to shit on people for not doing something you’re unwilling to do yourself isn’t gatekeeping. It’s calling out hypocrisy.
