I only consider Gatekeeping valid for people that are in charge of converting the material to a new form, they obviously should know the source material well. For fans though? piss off, they are allowed to like it without studying it. Having the same standards for regular fans than for show runners is very unfair.

Community Rules

Must be a wholesome meme All posts must be wholesome memes: uplifting, life-affirming, or nice-ing up a rude meme. Photos or screenshots without superimposed text, as well as social media posts, are not memes.
Be general, not specific Memes should be relatable, with universally uplifting themes. Avoid posts that promote an ideology, religion, or brand over others, & posts that show individuals’ politeness without some universal theme. Memes about controversial themes, people, and/or institutions are not allowed either.
No NSFW content Please avoid submitting NSFW content. PG-13 is fine, but please tag those “NSFW” for young or sensitive users.
No trolling, harassing, or general rudeness Please no trolling, harassment, rudeness, or behaviour unbecoming of the wholesome users we know you to be. Keep comments civil and be respectful of your fellow users. Be nice. This is a happy place. No proselytizing. Keep your religion, your politics, your diet, and any other crusade you might carry to yourself. We come here to get away from arguing and politics and the like, so please respect that by keeping your agendas to yourself.
No personal info or private communication Please do not post personal info, yours or others. All names should be blocked out, except public figures. Also, private communication & private posts are private; please don’t post them here.

No reposts Avoid posting memes that have already been posted to this sub. Fresh content is vital. We may allow a repost at our discretion, if it has not already been a frontpage post, and if it has been over 6 months since it was last posted here. Do not spam or post more than 3 memes in a 24 hour period.
