Gaslighting

An easily abused buzzword that can be bounced back and forth by irresponsible or otherwise immature people use to deflect blame and accountability. Better off removed from the dictionary for the sake of a functioning society.

Gaslifting

Similar to Gaslighting except you believe what you're doing is for the good of person you're Gaslifting and has a 99% probability of ending terribly. Instead of telling the truth in a kind way you Gaslift them into doing something they will probably regret. It's basically lying for 2022.

Examples include creating an OnlyFans, trying out for 5 aside despite doing zero exercise and doing shots on nights out.
