This is a bad example... You are using too many examples of first person reactions to somebody else gas lighting them....these behaviors you listed are also true for someone who is genuinely suffering from some delusion...an effective guide to gas lighting recognition should say more about the behavior and techniques used by the person who is trying to do the "gas lighting "
The Democrats have been gaslighting the American public like no tomorrow, and they get away with it because the corporate media never questions them about it.
Yeah. I had an ex who tried it on me. I knew what was up without knowing the term for it. It was frustrating and disheartening but it was what pushed me into leaving him.
I can see people not as confident in their beliefs of reality falling for it. I see people who are programmed by TV very easily falling for it.
Not if the manipulative fuck spends years honing his craft via being told it is special. In fact, I'd say it's the contrary to the retarded being affected, because like /u/Yubin says, retards believe what the masses believe and therefore don't need to be manipulated into it.
Brainwashing works on the retarded. Gaslighting works on a lot of intelligent people who notice all the retards have accepted the lie and don’t know why. Some intelligent people have a very firm grasp on reality that cannot be easily shaken but some do not. There are a lot of neurotic intelligent people who can be very demoralized by gaslighting.
Some people perform very well on IQ tests but they have personality traits that make them more likely to question their own perceptions. Neuroticism is rather high in hi IQ people. I would say it is harder to fool intelligent people on average but realize there are personality traits that vary independently of IQ that would affect this sort of thing.
I know what you're saying, but I would use a qualifier when describing them. "Smart" alone, implies no major malfunctions for me. "Smart-but-gullible" could work.
Also it's good to see you again. I haven't been around much lately. The world outside my door has gone crazy, and it's making me a little more nuts than usual.
Gaslighting isn't about changing the opinion of someone, it is about crushing his motivation.
Doesn't matter if you are smart or a dumbfuck. In fact, if you are a retard you just follow the mass-opinion anyway, in which case there is no gaslighting needed, because you will adopt their reality that they present to you.
If you aren't retarded, it is supposed to hurt you because you feel that no matter what you do and no matter how much proof there is and how right you are, you will still always be perceived wrong.
Thinking that your nation currently is full of retards can be a result of it btw.
You already think that the majority agrees with some twitter tards and is as easy to manipulate as them. You think that you are a minority or even alone. You got singled out and demotivated.
In reality, twitter is a radical space that doesn't even represent 2% of the population. The vast majority of the population thinks that the media lies and trust in the media is on an all time low. And while 90% of social media seems to support Biden, just about half of the population will vote for him and even they are mostly apolitical and just vote because they got told to vote.
Wearing someone down is a form of torture. Its crazy making and it works on even smart people because its intent isnt to fool you but to confuse and humiliate you. They want you to repeat the words back to them even if you know its bullshit.
Exactly! Every fucking one of them! I can't comprehend how I've managed to prevent myself from doing things that could have sent me to prison in response to this shit.
Definitely. Everything is everyone else's fault, otherwise if they realized that they were to blame it would make them feel bad, which is the ultimate sin to women. God forbid they have to feel bad.
9) You find yourself collecting "proof" things happened so you can reassure yourself.
Wow, hits very close. The mass media and public opinion are gaslighting, whether they know it or not, conspiracy theorists. It doesn't matter how much evidence there is, people won't listen. They made up their minds before the subject was even brought up. They begin at the conclusion and then arrive at the arguments, instead of the other way around. They have been told that conspiracy theories are automatically looney-talk, and to believe them is to be delusional. All conspiracists are retarded, delusional or evil (I believe they may have promoted "jet fuel can't melt steel beams" meme, reptilians, flat earth, to discredit actual conspiracies. If you tell your friends you believe in conspiracy theories, they'll think you belong to one of those three categories).
In the mind of the normie, conspiracies can't be true because it would be crazy/evil, no matter how much evidence there is. It just can't be true because the implications would be unpleasant.
Oh, ok. So he really is a she because it's "his reality". Or those "holocaust survivors" who admit to lyingwere really just victims of gaslighting.
I wondered why it's presentation was that of one meant for a child. Now I know.
There's a difference between "their" reality and "their" lies.
He being a she is a total lie, even if he don't realize it. His Y chromosome, no matter how hard they mutilate his penis and make the resulting gape a "vagina", IS their reality. They refuse to accept their reality, they lie to themselves.
"Their reality" could mean their feelings or opinions, or what they think is true.
Either way, I agree with your idea; I hate the concept of everything being subjective. Not all things are equal, not all opinions are right. This "subjective" mindset led us to having obese black trans models people have to pretend to like to show how progressive they are, shitty art that no one can instinctively enjoy and trashy music.

According to the story, mankind would not know death and sin if it weren't for Eve listening to the "knowledge giver", and the "knowledge giver" deceiving Eve.
We would not know suffering if it weren't for the wretched "knowledge giver". Thanks to Eve and the "knowledge giver" people and animals get tortured, raped and murdered. Thanks to that Serpant, we know death! Curse, your enki! And all who follow him!
I don't need to be right. Go examine the Sumerian myths direct from their tablets. And know that the jews were held in Babylon for 500 yrs, and their youth systematically trained in Babylonian education. And know that the talmud was written in Babylon.
Gaslighting is the practice of trying to convince another person that they cannot trust their own senses or their own memory, and that they may be losing their mind. The Democrats have been doing it since Obama ran for office. But even before that, they were doing it. Bill Clinton's famous line to Congress, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman," is a classic example of gaslighting.

Where in any of the examples in the news of with Clinton is the motive to make the recipient think they’re losing their mind?
It’s not there. They’re simply lying, which is not gaslighting. I agree it’s a fun word though.
