[gas-lahyt]
verb (used with object), gas·light·ed or gas·lit, gas·light·ing.

A description of their mission and a health prevention poster on "Understanding TDS" is here:

“Well, the conventional wisdom is wrong. The Democrats have not actually become radical leftists, or anything close to it.”
Gee, I wonder if it occurred to them that their “viewpoint”, being “radical leftists” themselves, might make other “radical leftists” seem perfectly simpatico?
Dear David,
the Tea Party isn’t over yet! No one has gone home.
We are still here and if we need to throw some more
bums overboard we WILL.
Party on Dudes 2020 is coming soon.
The New York Slimes is so repulsive birds refuse to shit if you line their cages with it.
Wow they had TDS before he was elected!
It’s a myth that it’s a myth.
Yes, the story misses 3 important points. First, that the democrats already were moving radically to the left, and have been for 8 years, so you would not expect a rash of incumbents losing.
Second, the republicans didn’t lose that many incumbents either, just a couple of big named ones.

I mean, to a leftist NYT board it must look that way, since they think they are mainstream, but there are no “alt-right” people being elected, much less white surpremists, people who pretend they like Nazis, or worse.
Anybody who vaguely hints at being alt-right is forced from the stage, while Loius Farakhan sits front-and center and gets warm handshakes from former President Bill Clinton.

I have the same problem...
They become irrational, hateful people...
It’s sad...
I don’t think I could stomach that place.
That’s very sad. I never felt that way about Obama, despite the damage he did to the country.
It’s very sad...one of them is my own sister.
Indeed. We may have joked, or wrote letters, or even marched in the Tea party, but the unmitigated , all-consuming hatred was not part of it.

My brother...though lately since all of his loony toon theories about Trump pretty much have never materialized...and the hate was eating him alive, has been quiet as of late...
