Many people are hesitant to identify as atheists because of the social stigma they may face, making it hard to pinpoint connections and differences among this group.
Not to say I agree with everything the person you’re responding to is saying, but it’s gatekeeping because you keep repeating “actual atheists.” You’re commiting a No True Scotsman fallacy by saying in order to be a true atheist, you need to act a certain way.

Just because someone Is right, doesn’t mean they’re gatekeeping.
Being a blowhard edgy hateful troll towards Christians does not make someone an atheist. It’s the ideology that does.
And an atheist’s ideology isn’t defined by who they hate.
I also posit this is a common method used to undermine the atheist position and is probably done intentionally here as well
