Gazalighting

Psychological manipulation where one who attacks another uses the response to gain sympathy for their actions.

Alex: "I noticed you told everyone about the disagreement we had, but you left out the part where you were shouting."

Jamie: "Well, I was under a lot of stress. It's not fair how everyone is piling on me now."

Alex: "That's gazalighting, Jamie. You're omitting your role in the escalation and then making yourself out to be the one who's being targeted, all to gain sympathy."

When Israelis blame Gazans for the crimes they commit in Gaza.

Gazan: Why did you kill my daughter?

Israeli: Yes, I did it, but it is your fault, because Khamas.

Gazan: Did you just Gazalight me?

Gazalighted

When left-wing, anti-Zionist anti Semitic protesters deliberately spread this information about Israel, the IDF, or the Jewish people; when they deny easily verifiable facts.

Today, on my way to the campus library, someone pulled off my yarmulke, called me a genocidal pig, and tried to choke me. When I complain to campus administrators, they gazalighted me by telling me that protests was peaceful.

If you believe 33,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed since October 7, you’ve been gazalighted.
