…yeah, there’s no gas-lighting…I feel that gas-lighting has become one of those new buzz word expressions that’s just thrown out as a label…and that’s also how things begin to lose their meaning because it all becomes overused…Ali seems to have controlling aspects to her character and can try to manipulate to gain that control in situations and then close others down as a response…I mean, conversations are easy to have in exactly the way you’d like them if you’re the only one speaking, aren’t they…?…
…but it’s not gaslighting…that’s another fish entirely…
