You’ve obviously never been gaslit.
Good for you.
Others have. When they learn of the term and watch the movie they have an epiphany. It’s not just me, others have had this done to them too. They end up appreciating the fact that the movie was made and the very specific verb coined.
The term is useful, in great part due to its very specificity. Sometimes a little obscurity can be a good thing.
Interesting! I’ll have to keep a more open mind and see if I can search and DVR it.
