WOW... yet again with the gaslighting

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, making 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]

"Cite: Wikipedia"  :D :D ??? ???

Ha ha ha! I like it when you're honest. I noticed your favorite source for information is Wikipedia.
It must be a struggle knowing you're from Gary, Indiana and being a product of their public school system.
We now know your education was limited to watching Romper Room  and using Wikipedia to find the answers to all your grade school questions
Good for you!

Even Haitians can write a 6 word sentence without having to go back and edit and then re-edit
