Gaslighting is a colloquialism, loosely defined as making someone question their own perception of reality. The expression, which derives from the title of the 1944 film Gaslight, became popular in the mid-2010s. Merriam Webster cites deception of one's memory, perception of reality, or mental stability.

January 6, 2021…Today is January 6, 2024…Three years have eked on since a sitting President and his cadre of Coup anti-Democracy Fascists, attempted to install a dictator into office, and I believe in earnest hoped that a final death knell of decency, justice, liberty, and freedom for all would end in a disastrous demise!
History made in front of our eyes, an Insurrection plotted, planned, and almost complete in front of our eyes…YET three years after, with the success of Right Wing Homegrown Terrorists, Right Wing Propagandists in the Media and o sitting in Congress, along with so-called Christian Religious Leadership, what we witnessed, the repercussions of even just that day… have been, as I see it, dismissed as hocus pocus, a sleight of hand, and of course the favorite tactic of the Right-Wing, the good old, “look over there, and pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.”
AND as we face this anniversary of this TRUMP inspired plot to overthrow the American Government, three current lawmakers were referred for defying subpoenas: Reps. Scott Perry (R-Pa.), Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), then add to that the former Speaker of the House, “Kevie” McCarthy and sadly they and their Anarchy-loving band of MAGA Republicans have been successful in rewriting ALL THAT WE WITNESSED and had to ENDURE!
Today, January 6th next year January 6th, a decade from now January 6th, should be a day in which every legitimate news outlet either plays the video demonstrating the CORRUPT, CRIMINAL, and ANTI-CONSTINTUIONAL plotting, planning, and actualized attempt to MURDER OUR DEMOCRACY. And I believe that anyone in participation should be held accountable for the charge of PRE-MEDITATED MURDER of the United States of America.
BUT, somehow, GASLIGHTING has been the only successful attempt regarding January 6, 2021! SAD!
