——this, thank you. We were being Gaslighted , by an arsonist
Actually, you are kind of as enlightened as him. The 1944 movie you are talking about was a remake of a 1940 British film Gas Light. But that wasn't the source of the term either...
The British film was based on a 1938 play of the same name. The gas light come from it taking place in 1880s Victorian London, before it had electrical lights.

“BALVINDER SANDHUHER” = BS
Yes, it’s like all of the bogus entries in Urban Dictionary for things where people just enter their half assed guess at what something means rather than doing any research.
Yep, this is a ‘bash men’ thing dressed up as an ‘in’ phrase.
I was saying to myself, “this child has probably never seen even one Ingrid Bergman movie, let alone the one that brought ‘gaslight’ to the lexicon as a verb.”
