The act of selectively mourning the death of someone based on their political or ideological alignment, while ignoring or rationalizing the deaths of those outside one’s tribe. A form of emotional compartmentalization that reveals unconscious bias in expressions of empathy.
When the invited speaker was killed, the campus held vigils and posted tributes. But when a student protester died last year, barely anyone mentioned it. That’s grief gating—mourning filtered through ideological lenses.

Get the Grief Gatingmug. A set of different areas around the Troy, IL and Collinsville, IL areas, outskirts of both and backroads that aren't really specified to where they go. You either know them or you don't. If you want to explore them, do so at your own risk. Disappearances, murders, occult things of varying degrees and even missing vehicles and the people in them.
"Oh, you've heard of the Seven Gates of Hell, right?" "What, around Troy, Illinois?" "Yeah. It's messed up. I've heard of people disappearing around there. I checked it out but I couldn't find anything." "Um, I recognize you. Haven't you been dead for a few years?"

Get the Seven Gates Of Hellmug. When a person begins doing hard drugs without smoking weed beforehand as a gateway. Often done by people that do not realize all drugs are not the same level of bad. Considered very rare.

Get the Hopping the Gatemug. "Did you hear about that kid who got suspended?"
"Yeah someone found out about his meme account and totally pulled a Beyond The Mint Gates on him."

Get the lungs on the gatemug. When two girls stand in front of each other , and the guy is standing with an erection. The two girls pee on his penis, while he is fucking them both.
