The writer might want to use a different term besides “gaslight”.
That’s a nebulous, hard to pin down term, that has become overused.
You are being told, by someone who is there and you’re supposed to be able to believe, that what you are hearing isn’t what you are hearing but rather something else entirely. It’s akin to ‘Who are you going to believe? Me or your lying eyes’?
I’m kind of surprised that the term that comes from a movie from the ‘40s is so widely recognized and used today.
Before five years ago I would wonder if the media was just so ideologically entrenched that everything they said was through the liberal filter. Since the rise of Trump it’s become obvious that it’s far worse, that they’re willing to flat out lie. This is a small example but it’s still very dramatic that this reporter was willing to lie in real time about what the crowd was doing.
I’m sort of Old School about that. I would prefer the antiquated term “B.S.” used as an active verb phrase.
They weren’t actually hearing what they were hearing.
Ah the media thinks people are as stupid as they are.

Gaslighting is weaponized lying. It’s a very specific, useful and powerful term that calls out the baddies. By no means is it hazy or hard to understand. People just need to: A) believe that people can behave in Major League evil ways, and/or B) realize that they themselves are engaging in gaslighting people with whom they have a close relationship (spouse, child, employee, supposed friend), develop remorse for that behavior, and reform.
“Gaslighting is weaponized lying...”
“Gaslighting is weaponized lying...”
B.S. it WAS F*** Joe Biden. Anyone saying otherwise is a brain dead moron!!!!!!!
People should start chanting “Let’s go Brandon” in the strangest of places, deny that’s what they were chanting to whomever asks about the strange chant, and then say, with a straight face, straight to the microphone: “We were chanting “Fxxx Jxx Bxxxx”, didn’t you hear us?
LOL! You funny.
