The issue atheists on the right (which until quite recently I would have considered myself) have to contend with is something like 80% of atheists consider themselves "far left" or "progressive" in their politics, with most of the remaining 20% considering themselves "center left". Right-wing atheists, though they do exist (eg. JF. Gariepy), are essentially a rounding error.
Which means that any atheist gatekeeping which might occur would almost certainly work against the right.
Then I'm confused as to what sort of "gatekeeping" you're doing as an extreme minority in a group. The concept isn't "owned" by the left, but all the socio-political power is.
