Markinsa Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or a group covertly sows seeds of doubt in a targeted individual, making them question their own memory, perception, or judgment, often evoking in them cognitive dissonance and other changes such as low self-esteem. Using denial, misdirection, contradiction, and misinformation, gaslighting involves attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim's beliefs. Instances may range from the denial by an abuser that previous abusive incidents ever occurred to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim. The term originated from the 1938 play Gas Light and its 1940 and 1944 film adaptations (both titled Gaslight). The term has been used in clinical psychological literature,[1]:31–46[2] as well as in political commentary, philosophy,[3] and popular culture. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO RV, then BV Shabs, hard to watch you make a statement such as this when lately EVERY TIME the frigging Lame Stream Media opens their mouth it is NOTHING but lies about Trump and conservatives. They lost their credit with most freedom loving Americans a LONG time ago and since the have now become the mouth piece and titular head of the Rat party, they probably will NEVER get that credit back. They have been exposed for who and what they really are. Forget about research and reporting just the facts and let the deplorables make up their minds. Nope like good socialist/communists we must be told what to think and what is acceptable in our ives and politics now by a bunch of mentally ill self appointed elitists. The deplorables have awaken and they spoke in 2016 and they will speak again loud and clear in 2020. And as you say Shabs, "as always, just my opinion!!"
