[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the thing is, we all know what gaslighting feels like. And it has happened to us all as this story unfolds. I'm never going to trust something written by Kolker again. I'm never going to buy a book from Ng again, or any of the Chunky Monkeys. [b]So it does feel personal, because we were also gaslit here, and made part of the experience.[/quote][/b]

Wow. Wow!! This is such a crucial point, and I’d never have gotten to this thought on my own. We were lied to and deceived, too, and some of us feel somewhere between sheepish and ashamed for not understanding what Dawn went through. This is it. Thank you, PP. [/quote]

You are welcome. I feel the same way you do. I went through a journey with this, where now I don't trust authors (multiple authors!) and institutions I previously would have, if not exactly trusted, given the benefit of the doubt to. What do I do about the NYT now, for instance? They happily sold me a narrative that turned out to be deceptive. How do I value the NYT now?

Dawn was of course the only real victim, but I am left feeling somewhat gaslit myself. [/quote]
