Gaslighting, an ongoing process

GASLIGHTING

Back in 2022, I wrote a commentary about gaslighting; in it I wrote, “Gaslighting is a power play, a way for one person or group to gain and maintain power over others. In the United States, we are gaslighted on a daily basis by individuals and institutions such as religions, our education systems, the mass media, and politicians. There are numerous ways, means, and techniques--devious people use to control, disorient, and disarm people they want to have power over.

One technique is to tell blatant lies and then make you think you are insane for questioning or disbelieving them. The ruling class and their minions lie to us daily. When the ruling class decides (they are not a monolithic group, but they do cooperate to accomplish their goals) they want to bum rush a country and steal their natural resources--they demonize that nation’s leader to gain public acquiescence and consent for their actions.”

Well, here we are in 2023, and the gaslighting continues even more so. The same forces, cabal and megalomaniacs, are hard at work trying to pursue their nefarious agendas, which include menticide, global depopulation, and the intended reconfiguring of the current world order into a dystopian hellscape that makes the most gruesome science fiction horror stories look tame by comparison.

To get us to go for their okey-doke they use the media they own and control to tout their schemes as “progressive” and “beneficial,” or they lie and tell us they are needed to confront and solve pressing problems like a “war on terror” a public health crisis or climate change. It’s all lies and gaslighting.
