The cyanide comic is shit, but that isn’t the point. What makes the “I love science” crowd annoying is that they aren’t trying to engage with the topic at all. You can’t gatekeep when nobody is attempting to pass the gate.
It’s like people who claim they love books, when all they do is stack them in their shelves to appear intelligent.
“Loving everything about something even the boring parts” isn’t even how love works so i don’t feel the need to address the rest of the gatekeeping
