Ungaslightable
30th January 2021
Freeberg invents a useful new word.
I am hereby declaring a word for 2021: Ungaslightable.
Yeah yeah it’s got a red line under it because it isn’t a real word. Well, someone has to get on that and fix it. It is the MOST Important word. It can save your soul.
People talk about “gaslighting” but it seems no one remembers the most important thing about it: It requires consent of the victim. You have to disrespect yourself, and rely on the inferential powers of another.
In other words, nobody can gaslight you without your consent.
