Then they lied and said they had never blamed the video.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A fight with a family member or significant other and had the other person categorically deny facts that you both know are true?

OMG, my wife is famous for that. Now there's a word to describe it? I always thought it was an artifact of being married...

[Persevero]

I like your thoughts but I guarantee you if the pay and benefits were high enough those construction jobs would be filled.

Suppose they paid $200 an hour? Would there be any vacancies? Of course not.

Well keep going lower and you’ll find the correct wage when you get a decent number of qualified candidates. And that’s how capitalism actually works...not by importing slaves.

"I guess we just have different memories."

That's some very poor advice from the author. That's giving more ammo to the aggressor.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

But it only works on the ignorant and easily led.

Nope, it works if you trust the person lying to you.

You do not trust CNN (at least I hope you don't) so you were able to laugh it off.

If you were dealing with someone you trusted on another subject you would probably fall just as easily into the trap.

When it looked candidate Trump was the real thing and might win!

The Never Trumpsters on Free Republic went ballistic with their Gas Lighting of Candidate Trump. They posted every vile left wing and NR article that blasted candidate Trump.

Then, when we told them to knock of the Gas Lighting, they doubled down and said they were the real conservatives not Trump and not us. That was their Gas Lighting of us, the Deplorables..

[SgtHooper]

They only “trick” the weak or unwary. Anyone confronting a libturd should know that little to nothing will be accomplished.

[Impy]

the 1944 movie "Gaslight," a mystery-thriller in which a man slowly tricks and manipulates his wife into believing she is losing her mind ...

Dude must have been gay, married to Ingrid Bergman and all cared about was finding some rocks.

[Rebelbase]

The best thing that ever happened to my mental was being able to identify manipulation. Some people are so subtle with it that it took years before I understood what was going on.

And after I stopped being manipulated by them they hated me.

Life is good!

“And that’s how capitalism actually works...”

“Wait - so you mean if I work here I can’t collect welfare!? Well how is that fair?”

I was going to add “And a drug test!!?? That’s against my rights.” But of course that IS part of the free market of supply (of good workers) and demand. Although I guess even that is affected by the government. Pretty sure there isn’t any drug test to qualify for welfare.

Had people try it on me - it never worked though

[Bender2]

Have never been a big fan of "Gaslight" being called high art. It was a film noir era thriller flick (that came out two years before the term 'film noir' was coined), pure and simple.

As to have I ever been "Gaslighted?"

Many trolls and FR-lite posters on this forum have tried, but never succeeded!

Gaslighting Abbie

[central_va]

Libertarians, like Rush Limbaugh, Fox News etc., have been gaslighting “normal” Republicans into believing Free Trade is a good thing when every statistic and observation says the opposite.

[central_va]

Trump may start a trade war - Right wing Gaslighting.

The entire GloBULL Warming hoax - Left wing Gaslighting.

[Just mythoughts]

.......Have I gaslighted at times?

We are a nation of laws... IF any person enters this nation illegally they are 'bad'!!!!! But worse than the illegals, are those that participate in the crime. You try and go to the country of origin of any illegal and see IF you can 'work' on the sly and get away with it.

Do you work for some national 'religious' charity?

[central_va]

The left portrays illegals as living in the shadows, living in fear, petrified. Some anti-illegal voices go to the other extreme that all illegals are terrible people ... just because they did not play mother-may-I with the Nanny state.

Go f yourself.

“Dude must have been gay, married to Ingrid Bergman and all cared about was finding some rocks.”

Agreed. Poofery on display.
