I think this is gas-lighting.
this pure BS. Thre was no artificial lighting until 150 yearn ago? viz: “The word ‘dementia’ appeared first in the record of mankind in around 600 A.D. Saint Isidore (560–636 A.D.), the archbishop of Seville, used the term ‘dementia’ for the first time in his book, ‘Etymologies’.2 o to:
HISTORY OF DEMENTIA
Dementia has occurred in human history long before it was named. In about 2000 B.C., the ancient Egyptians were already aware that memory declines as people age.3”
there was no artificial lighting, electric nor flourescent in Rome..
