institutional gaslighting

Institutional Gaslighting: When a group of respected people within an institution are posed as investigating on the victim’s behalf, but in actuality act to belittle or deny the reality of the harm committed in order to protect the institution’s reputation, the institution can cause the victim to question their own perceptions of reality, feelings, instincts, and even sanity. When an authority figure incites self-doubt in the victim, they are employing a tactic of emotional abuse referred to as “gaslighting, a term coined in reference to domestic abuse.” Perpetrators, whether they are individuals or institutions, use “gaslighting” to get what they want, typically “without ever taking responsibility for their actions or even their precipitating desires.” When an institution gaslights a victim in order to protect its own reputation, the institutional betrayal silences, invalidates, and harms recent survivors in their most vulnerable states.

Gaslighting

Gaslighting is a systematic pattern of abuse by which the abuser manipulates factual information to give the victim the impression that they cannot trust their own senses. It should not be confused with discounting or minimizing, two very different forms of verbal abuse that are far more common.

Yashar Ali has no idea what 'gaslighting' means.

daylighting

Working on a paid project while being paid by an employer during the same hours. Usually an 8-5 job. But using ones energy on another paid project and not producing any valuable units for the primary employer.

Person A: I was daylighting, worked all day on my consulting website instead of doing work for my employer 'Z'.

Person B: Sounds like you just doubled your income, but is it ethical? What does employer 'Z' think about it?

Person A: Let me look up ethical on UD. I'll get back to you.
