Intent is the last refuge of the scoundrel. Dont discuss intent, always discuss behavior. Intent= When i stabbed my sister 84 times I was trying to save a puppy and slipped. Lets discuss how awesome of a puppy saver I am instead. Youre right to recognize this as gaslighting.

While I agree with most of what you are saying, I don’t think this is an example of gaslighting. This is just run of the mill dishonesty.
