[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mere use of the term "SJW" is gaslighting.[/quote] Seriously? I am an ivory tower liberal, and this comment makes me shudder.[/quote] Seriously? Do you not know that both the historical origin of the term SJW and its dictionary definition are explicitly derogatory and pejorative?[/quote] I’m aware, as I made clear in my post, which anticipates this response. That doesn’t deal with the fundamental issue, and in any event, saying the term is typically considered pejorative—and it is—doesn’t mean that it’s usage is gaslighting. Its use is inflammatory and, again, pejorative. But it’s not gaslighting, properly understood. And veering into territory of accusing others of gaslighting when they are disagreeing (however imperfectly and however pejoratively) is just illustrating my point about the complete loss of discourse, discussion, and debate.
