Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

Gaslighting

Gasighting is a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, [attempting to] make them question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim's belief.[1][2]

I guess you?ve just now committed the Chapman version of ?appeal to authority? by quoting Wikipedia.

But perhaps you?d like to explain when Martin or I tried to make you question your own memory, perception, and sanity.

You lot are the ones claiming your opinions as fact

Give even a single example.

Is there some reason your mother has to be alive in order for you to live in her basement? Particularly when your dead dad can beat people up.

Martin?s right though, you don?t understand what a false appeal to authority fallacy is. Or gaslighting.

Particularly when your dead dad can beat people up.

Creep. You can't disrespect my father like that.

In a post directed at me, you wrote

John asked you for an example and you start talking in riddles.... Why is that?

Be precise and tell us exactly what you want to say.

What is there to disrespect. You brought it up;

My dad could beat up your dad

If you are so touchy about your parents you shouldn't have brought them up.

Just my opinion about these forums. While we all may not agree upon everything. And, some of us "insult each other", I do enjoy the interaction. I just wish those on both sides of the argument would respect each other. I have respect for everyone who posts. Hopefully you have the same opinion. Thanks.

Well said, Dale.
