    All words are up for interpretation, that’s what language is. You just haven’t made a real argument for how you’re deciding to interpret “gaslighting.”

        In the above thread, I see one person making an argument based on research they did, citing academic definitions and I see one person making an argument based on feelings and then abandoning it for ad hominem attacks as soon as they figured out they were incorrect. Guess which one you are?

          Ohhh you are referencing the opinion of the assistant professor who studies based on a targeted audience? You got me there!

            See, if you put as much work into building your own argument as you do into trying to dismantle the other person’s, you might actually make a point. Wouldn’t want that though, better continue to tear people down and revel in your own ignorance 🤷‍♂️ Happy Hanukkah!

              I’ve presented my point clearly, and feel no need to present it to you individually. Merry Christmas!

                And obviously I disagree and feel the desire to tell you. You’re also waaaay more rude and pretentious than that other person, though me maybe not lol

                  I disagree, and that means you’re objectively wrong :)
