One of the most interesting things about the Digital Age, and especially social media, is how it has changed our very language, with certain words taking on a completely new meaning from their original definitions. If you\u2019ve spent any amount of time on social media comment threads, you would no doubt have seen linguistic evolution in action, evidence of the dynamic nature of language.<\/p>\n

Take the word \u201cgatekeeper<\/strong>\u201d, for example. While, historically, a gatekeeper could be interpreted very literally as a person guarding a physical gate<\/strong> and, later on, someone controlling the flow of information within an organisation \u2013 similarly, \u201csomeone who has the power to decide who gets particular resources and opportunities\u201d \u2013 the modern gatekeeper is a person, or group of people, (usually self-appointed) who decides what is appropriate and acceptable within a particular context. Content moderators is one example but, more often than not, gatekeepers are simply members of a particular community. Sometimes, gatekeeping is done to ensure the integrity of a community, while other times there\u2019s a certain degree of elitism involved.<\/p>\n

Whatever the case, the idea of a gate<\/strong> has always been associated with security<\/strong> and protection<\/strong>, controlling who has access and who doesn\u2019t. Gates are the physical barriers<\/strong> that insulate and shield us against any number of risks to our safety<\/strong>, security<\/strong> and wellbeing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
