The term “gaslighting” has made a comeback in the public discourse in recent years, and many people, including yours truly, are thankful for this. Once I learned what the word meant, I started noticing gaslighters in my sphere and realized that I should be careful not to let them into my inner circle. It’s just too bad that I can’t keep all the gaslighters away.
Gaslighting describes the practice of making someone question their perception of reality in order to control and abuse them for the perpetrator’s benefit. The term is often talked about in the context of relationships, romantic or other, and usually refers to individual behaviors. But what happens when an entire group acts as gaslighters? Or worse, when an entire society becomes the victim of gaslighting?
