The psychological manipulation in which Gen Z pro-Palestinians verbally manipulate historical archaeological facts and artifacts of the Judean Tribe via TikTok and Instagram through the use and mass sharing of AI powered images, false historical claims of territory and means of cultural appropriation to incite hate, antisemitism and anti-zionism to the indigenous peoples of Judea/Israel.
I spoke with a they/them LGBTQIA+ member with purple hair about ancient maps of Judea and Israeli currency to show her my ancestry but she just told me to go back to Germany although I’m Middle Eastern…I think I’m being gazalighted.

Gazalighting

Gazalighting is a term used to describe a specific manipulative behavior where an individual attacks or provokes another person, and then, when the other person defends themselves or retaliates, the instigator tries to shift the blame or portray themselves as the victim. It involves a deliberate attempt to distort the reality of the situation, making the second person question their actions or feel at fault for the initial person's aggressive or provocative behavior. This term captures the essence of creating confusion and doubt in interpersonal conflicts to manipulate the narrative in one's favor.
During the debate, John criticized Mark harshly, but when Mark responded with his own criticism, John accused him of being aggressive and hostile, effectively gazalighting him into thinking he was the instigator of the conflict.
