@davidallengreen gaslighting is a term that's over 100 years old though 🙄

  1. Extract from a court judgment 6. The phenomenon of trolling has itself spawned a whole new vocabulary of ‘cyberbullying. It has given us a lexicon which includes gaslighting (undermining someone's confidence in their own beliefs and self-belief, even in their own rationality and sanity); sealioning (the relentless pursuit of demands for evidence, including under the guise of a faux-sincere interest in understanding more); doxxing (the public exposure of personal data and private identifying facts about someone, with a view to undermining, humiliation or intimidation); flaming (posting crude and/or obscene personal insults and invective); concern trolling (feigning concern, often for someone's mental or emotional state, as a means of slurring that state) and dogpiling (joining or inciting a hostile group response designed to overwhelm someone and stifle their voice).
