I've noticed a trend among the left and among the jewry of overwhelming gaslighting, be it rewriting history that already exists, making shit up and pushing it as truth or more personally manipulating situations to warp ones sense of reality.
It's pretty obvious to me but I'm trying to find techniques of countering such for those who aren't as willing to accept that they're being lied to and manipulated.
Obviously for ones self, countering gaslighting is as easy as maintaining your grip on reality and your confidence of self-recall.
For others, overwhelming aggression works to counter an individual but backs a narrative of negativity among the morally weak left who see any form of anger or violence, even justified and used as authority, as wrong.
That's not gaslighting, that's just been a jackass. What is the democrat mascot again?
Primary sources are your best bet to deal with historical gaslighting.
For instance, immediately after the American Civil War, southern Democrats began to push a revisionist narrative known collectively as the Lost Cause. They tried to portray the Confederacy as a noble institution preserving their rights, heavily downplaying or even denying the slavery element involved.
But simply reading a few primary sources, such as the Confederate constitution or their declarations of secession, will immediately demonstrate that slavery was one of the primary issues causing the civil war.
And if you're at the point where you start doubting even primary sources, you're too far gone already.
The downside is that this approach practically requires a history degree, and is usually too difficult and time consuming to accomplish.
