"Gatekeepers" is a common term that I've heard, and used, for over 30 years. Gatekeeping doesn't sound new to me, but it's new to the kiddos, I suppose.

'Gatekeeper' was one of those awful terms that was used in management-speak a lot, along with equally annoying terms such as 'turnkey', 'bespoke', 'synergy', 'positioning', etc.
I can't really see the kids adopting these other words.

Well, let's not get too excited. It's easy to shoot the whole wad on a dry run, but if you rush in prematurely you can end up with a real mess on your hands.

I know it’s a word that had a definition, but the iconoclastic usage is trending now with young adults. It seems to be. I was just curious if anybody else had noticed.

I have. It's being applied more broadly to "people who disagree," presumably because the youngsters using it in this way haven't yet the job experience to understand its actual meaning.
