Take a learners dictionary and pair it with an advanced one.
Pic some controversial words.
Compare verbs against nouns, nouns against adjectives so the definitions aren’t actually the same but look like they should be.
Completely make up the last “simple” definition so it seems like you are making some profound point that’s actually just a dumb comment.
Call the side with the stupid comment you made up “pop psychology” so people can hate on others for no reason while demonstrating in plain sight what gaslighting actually looks like.
Either that or just be too dumb to know how your own language works.
It’s the wojack/Chad meme of “your side is represented as crying wojack, my side is represented with chiseled Chad version, therefore I win”
And the “umm akshyully this is what gaslighting REALLY is” just makes me think someone made this whole thing just to try and prove to another person they aren’t a gaslighting narcissist who doesn’t believe someone has ptsd and has lasting issues stemming from it.
Besides, There doesn’t have to be some elaborate ongoing scheme for something to be gaslighting.
