The Great COVID Gaslighting is underway. I will leave it to historians to determine when and who precisely launched it, but it is certainly here. Gaslighting is a form of manipulation. In one of its manifestations, it is a crude attempt at altering reality to conceal one’s misdeeds. Its tool is the lie. The gas lighter wants you to believe that something you know happened, did not happen.
One doesn’t have to read conspiracy to see that these are not isolated coincidences. Plenty of elected officials who pushed and defended the COVID regime are now seeking ways to launder their blunders through gaslighting. Language, definitions, and official health records are already being doctored. There will be more at an even grander scale in the months to come, unless citizens resist it. The first act of defiance against the gaslighting attempts to change what we know to be true is to remember. If we forget, and if we choose to keep silent, all sorts of misdeeds will be swept under political rugs, and barn-like doors will remain open for similar future abuses.
