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.

Tries To Gaslight and Rob Into

Community tries to psychologically torture someone into being sorry and walking back their words... I'm not. Nor will I ever be.

Hym "Tries to gaslight and rob into doing it. I'm not ever doing to do it. That's what you'd LIKE me to do but I'm not getting the credit or the money I would require to do it AND... Even if I had it, I STILL wouldn't take it back as I AM CORRECT. You don't deserve any sympathy. You are sacrificing my freedom for safety THAT I CONTROL. I CONTROL WHETHER OR NOT YOUR KIDS ARE SAVE AND THIS A DESPERATE AND PATHETIC ATTEMPT TO TORTURING ME TO DELUDE YOURSELVES INTO BELIEVING I DON'T. It IS and always has been a breeder racket and FOR DOIKG SHIT LIKE THIS... YOU DESERVE TO HAVE YOUR CHILDREN MURDERED UNTIL YOU LEARN TO STOP. It's hilarious that I have to explain it to you. You'd think with all of the school shootings you would have figured it out by now. A desperate attempt at clawing back control you won't ever have. You will fail and I will not. The sooner you accept that, the safer your kids will be."
