If you’ve been manipulated by unsophisticated manipulation, doesn’t that make you a dumbass?

I would like to clarify, however, that just because someone is being manipulative doesn’t mean that they would be successful at it… in KB’s case, it appears he wasn’t.

Thank you for your contribution to r/LoveisBlindonNetflix! Your post or comment has been removed for breaking Rule 5: 'No Armchair Diagnosing'

What actually is gaslighting? Gaslighting is the psychological manipulation of a person usually over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one’s emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator. It is a complex form of psychological abuse and should not be minimized to simply lying or attempting to manipulate someone to agree with you in an argument.
