Now that's some gaslighting here.

These products give false hope and are triggering for people susceptible for it which leads to abuse.

Can you explain what do you mean by "gaslighting" in this context? We seem to have a different understanding of what that term means?

Gaslighting is when someone manipulates you into questioning your own perception or reality. By dismissing the concern, minimising the abuse, and subtly shifting blame, you're continuing to do just that - making me question whether the emotional manipulation described is valid, which is exactly what gaslighting is.

You are mistaken. Gaslighting is not simply someone sharing a different perspective than you. It requires an ongoing relationship and an orchestration. By using the term for simple situations like this, you are minimizing what actual gaslighting entails, and how destructive it can be for someone's psyche.

How are you reading my comment as something where I make you doubt your perception? Can we not simply disagree, and share our different perspectives? Can we not hold different opinions about things, even concurrently, in our minds? I can unfold, and explain my position more, if you're interested. This is a place of discussion, after all.

Yes, dude, keep gaslighting. I think you need therapy if you are like this in real life.

You are using techniques of diversion instead of engaging with the content of the discussion.
