A term, created on 13 March 2025 for the military community, describing the act of excessively or insincerely agreeing with or supporting a senior leader's ideas or decisions, regardless of how flawed, impractical, or misguided they may be, in order to gain favor, avoid conflict, or advance one’s own standing.

A form of Digitallighting that weaponizes brain-related insults to systematically dismantle a target’s confidence in their own mind. The perpetrator repeatedly tells the target they are “stupid,” “brainless,” “delusional,” or that they “need to use their brain”—often in public threads, so the target’s credibility is eroded before witnesses. Brainlighting combines the gaslighting effect (making the target doubt their own perception) with public humiliation. The goal is to isolate the target by convincing both them and onlookers that the target cannot think clearly, therefore anything they say is suspect. It is frequently used in debates where the actual substance is inconvenient, replacing argument with character assassination.
Example: “He ignored her sources, her logic, her evidence, and just kept posting ‘you dropped your brain.’ After weeks of this, she began to wonder if she was missing something obvious. Brainlighting: making someone doubt their own intellect to win without argument.”
