Erkeling 

Erkeling someone is when you set them up to fall on their face and once they've fallen flat on their face and soundly made a fool of themselves through their own actions loudly saying in a nerdy voice “did I do that”

Erkeling someone is usually done by a quick witted person to their would be bully in such a way that instead of being laughed at for the things the bully tried to do, they get to be the one laughing instead.

While Erkeling someone can be a primary act it’s usually done as a reactionary tactic by someone quick witted.

By: Emobard “I’ll cut you with my voice”
Someone plays emotional gaslighting games which you find out partway through so you set them up by continuing the joke and once they have forgotten what they were doing and even lay you a ticket price for the show saying “did I do that”

Another example is leading your would be bully into making themselves appear in a negative light when they were first tryi my to tarnish your personal image and once they’ve fallen flat realise they were made of fool of you say “did I do that”

Erkeling someone is usually done by a smarter or more quick witted person to their bully.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
