How is this gaslighting? I've never seen any evidence that it's a conspiracy. For me to be "gaslighting" I'd have to be in on it and purposely misleading you. Both sides seem to be plagued with propaganda from what I have observed, but I'm open minded to learn more if you truly think otherwise. No need to be so aggressive lmao

They’re literally just people who think differently from you. It’s not a conspiracy.

Again, in order for this to be gaslighting I'd have to somehow be in on it and purposely misleading others. As someone not strongly on either side I don't get why both sides think there is a conspiracy against them. I'm willing to hear you out if you want to explain.

Many people who have suffered at the hands of virtuous leftists censoring wrongthink on other sites have understandably grown very suspicious, and apprehensive of coordinated efforts to subvert open speech platforms. He's right that there are organized shills, who disrupt and try to get these sites shut down.

But, sometimes oblivious left leaning people get painted with this broad brush stroke too.

Thank you for that comment, that actually makes a lot of sense. I may be left leaning but I've been censored for wrongthink too, mostly because I've stated that life begins at conception and biological sex exists, which are no-no topics for the left. So I totally get that.

I just hope people can open their minds a little, especially on sites like this. Not everyone who is somewhat liberal is a robot. But I do get it, I used to hate conservatives until I stepped out of my bubble and got a better understanding of their views.
