what is gaslighting?

this uber-liberal chick in my Sunday school class is all over FB about gaslighting. I've never heard the term. What's it mean? The sad part is she's kinda hot too.

manipulate (someone) by psychological means into questioning their own sanity.

What is an example of Gaslighting?
A person using this technique may pretend not to understand someone so that they do not have to respond to them. For example, they might say, “I do not know what you are talking about,” or “you are just trying to confuse me.” Trivializing: This occurs when a person belittles or disregards the other person's feelings

Gaslighting is a tactic in which a person or entity, in order to gain more power, makes a victim question their reality. It works much better than you may think. ... For example, in the movie Gaslight (1944), a man manipulates his wife to the point where she thinks she is losing her mind.

Sounds like a nut job defriend her

When the news always refers to election fraud as Unsubstantiated claims.
They were saying that from day 1. Even when evidence was being presented. Never did they refer to Russian collusion as Unsubstantiated claims.
If you feel the claims should have been heard in court, you were gaslighted by MSM

When you are made to believe something you know is true is false or something you know is false is true.

It would be like when Sam told you Texas was back.

I'll unfriend you

You said she was kinda hot...I can’t figure out why we’d have to ask for pictures. Smdh.

I don't know what's happened to him, he used to be considerate.

that's her and her husband, best pix of her I could steal off fb

Farting on an open flame

Yup

Just what I thought

I think those old Coleman lanterns with the mantles that you had to pump up were gaslighters.

Do yourself a favor, don't have liberal friends.

Also known as marriage

No, that's bait and switch.

Ironically the original post here is actually a great example of gaslighting.

I’m driving up there soon to try and kickura with the Arig again.
And I’ll do my best to not push any fish off your jerkbait.

how is she not turning into flames by walking into a church?

I still think you did that on purpose. It looked like this except with a bass.

In layman's terms, its pizzing on my leg and telling me it's raining.

we aren't friends just happen to be in the same SS class. Not like we have driveway beers together.

I was in a small bible study group and I was the only conservative. I liked them, but I had to leave.

Gaslighting sound exactly like what the Social-Democrats and the MSM, along with big tech, are doing to America. It is working because Americans are stupid and sheep.

Are y’all taking about Allison?

I thought it was one of those things all fancy homes had in the front yards in the 60's that now have light bulb or bird nest in them.

You got gas lighted.

Want examples of gaslighting just watch CNN, MSLSD or the others. Constant barrage of total BS to the point that sane clear thinking people start to question logic. You know when Adam Schiff went on those shows and stated for years that he had concrete evidence, but never did.

in the 60s gaslighting involved bending over the campfire and lighting gas.

got to be pretty entertaining sometimes.

Bible Study would be a tough crowd.

Would Jesus have been a Conservative or a Liberal?

Good question .

I would say that Jesus Christ ( being an observant Orthodox Jew) was conservative . The liberal question comes from the fact that He challenged the religious authorities to reconsider their condemnation of those sinners they believed were beneath them . He gave His life to teach (and give us) forgiveness .

That said , He directed the forgiven to "Go and sin no more " . He didn't give everyone a "get out of hell free" card regardless of how we act and treat each other .

He showed us the Way . It's up to us to follow His footsteps .

One guy tried to convince us there was no such thing as sin.

Actually, Jesus was a radical who set about to overthrow the Roman government and the Jewish priests who ran the temples and fleeced the people of Israel.

pretty sure Jesus didn't endorse Abortion, then I could be wrong...……….
