Me posting first time: these stereotypes coexist.

You: You are opposing him and gasslighting. Also, he contradicted you.

Me now: wtf. Also, he could not contradict my assertion, because I joined only after him and made no assertion before.

I understand what you were trying to say. Have you considered that maybe the other stereotypes did not coexist or were not influential? That's what I'm saying.
