Minnesota gaslighting

The act of convincing or attempting to convince someone that your personality and the current local temperature are both warmer than they actually are.
"My friends were Minnesota gaslighting me when they told me I wouldn't need a sweater but I later found out they just thought it was ugly and didn't want to be seen with me wearing it."

Big Data Gaslighting

A technique of modifying historical data to magically contain data it used to not have, so that you can avoid blame about not having the right data in the first place.
Funny how when I complained about the zip-codes all bring blank from last year, then it all suddenly appeared! Must be Big Data Gaslighting.

Righteous Gaslighting

A restorative act of helping someone embrace forgiveness—both giving and receiving—by lovingly challenging their perception of guilt, shame, or unresolved conflict.

It involves gently leading them to understand that through true forgiveness, the past is erased, as promised by God’s mercy and grace. This approach seeks to restore relationships and align hearts with the divine principle that forgiven sins are no longer remembered.

Biblical Anchoring
Jeremiah 31:34 (KJV):
“For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
• Connection: God’s forgiveness is absolute and restorative. Righteous gaslighting reflects this by encouraging people to fully accept forgiveness as a clean slate, rather than clinging to past sins or grievances
Examples of Righteous Gaslighting
1. Forgiving Others:
If someone says, “I can forgive them, but I’ll never forget what they did,” you might gently challenge this with, “True forgiveness means letting it go entirely—like how God forgives us and remembers our sins no more (Jeremiah 31:34). Can you trust Him to help you erase the past?”
2. Accepting Forgiveness:
When someone insists, “I don’t deserve forgiveness,” you could respond, “God says otherwise. Psalm 118 reminds us that His mercy endures forever, and He restores us as a new creation.”
3. Rebuilding Relationships:
If a person holds onto old grievances, you might remind them, “If God has forgiven and forgotten your sins, shouldn’t we do the same for others? Imagine what healing could come from letting the past truly stay in the past.”

Righteous Gaslighting restores hearts by reshaping perceptions of forgiveness, aligning them with God’s truth: that forgiven sins are erased, and each day is an opportunity to rejoice in a restored relationship with Him and others

Gaslight

A word that actually has no definition, no matter how many people tell you, gaslight, gaslighted, gaslit, or any other variations, are fake. If you thought any of them were real in the first place, you might be crazy, or misled by family and friends. They want to lie to you about real definitions. Yes, you.
