For the top half, the person on the left is quoting the “Meta Verified” sentence: there is a line going from the person to the text box.
For the bottom half, the person on the left is just saying “I’m goth”.
This is surely commenting on the fact that an account can be a Meta Verified subscriber or notable person or brand, but uncool people will still argue about whether they’re really a goth despite that.
I’m still not really sure what being verified has to do with goth gatekeeping though. I would expect a gatekeeper to gatekeep completely independent of some random meta verified tag. I mean gatekeeping is stupid, but verified seems completely irrelevant to it.
