An advanced explanation of how gaslighting works and how to solve it at the root
Max the Know better says: I’m not about to gaslight you, but taking psychedelics is part of the drug culture, and many hippies in the sixties took marijuana and psilocybin mushrooms, I don’t take them because they will ruin my life, I get accusations at what’s seemingly bud in my hand-rolled cigarettes, that means drugs will ruin my life, as for you they might be making your life easy; but I think people doing drugs except for you are bad people, that’s what I think, are you going to demonise the truth because of a thought? What are you going to do, considering I think all of life is bad, and all of life is heartache? The whole vibrations thing and the hippies were right, is bad vibrations, every millimetre of a false move I get bad vibrations, I don’t know anything else, nothing stops a man like substituting obedience for importance, if it’s important for me to phone someone, I will. I get gaslit about doing what I want or entertaining myself, and gaslit about being normal, told it’s not normal, or told I’m an individual, that’s gaslighting because people’s beliefs don’t allow them to think any different, they seemingly let their beliefs and normality limit their thinking, I don’t, I can think of a trillion things your normal mind won’t let you think, I don’t let my language, norms, beliefs or culture or forgetting words set a limitation on what I’m thinking, I expanded my mind to include normal people’s thoughts I otherwise couldn’t possibly think. That’s how gaslighting starts, I don’t remember being what I’m told, my beliefs are rebelling against every shit belief you say about me, they don’t conform to your non-philosophical, no-beliefs bullshit, and so it goes that’s why people are full of shit.
Max the shithead says: I don’t know better, thus I’m not “Max the Know better”, I haven’t been for months, goblins and elves might be real, my experiences of reality are simple, it’s just the same ordinary reality of everyone else, as for witches, that’s bad, I’m not trusting of witches and believe me they exist, they’re just hidden in these “normal” jobs so you wouldn’t spot a witch, even if they were unemployed you wouldn’t identify them, that vegan who lied about “yes” she eats fish (she doesn’t), that I was trying to get in her pants, might be a Christian at best, or maybe a closet witch who doesn’t come out as a witch, guess who was acting strange? It was me! That’s why she seemed strange to me. If you’re radically different in a queer way you’ll get beaten up going in public like that, it’s not even something as mild as gaslighting, people are very scared of this behaviour. It becomes gaslighting with your dad if you’re acting radically different, I remember being gaslit by my doctors, I was only “gaslit” about gaslighting once, being told I was gaslighting and not them (the doctors didn’t do this, they were gaslighting me about not being sane enough, I said I was 60% sane and they said “what about the other 40%?”, the other time I said I was extremely sane and they said “what about being healthy?”, and I said “yeeees! extremely sane is extremely healthy”), you see? Questioning my sanity and mistreating me like I’m their idiot friends, I’m not one of them, I’m average intelligence and they gaslit me about that, I’ve been mildly gaslit about how normal I am, “you’re not just normal”, bullshit! You can’t say that because you never saw me in cafes how I order coffee like everyone else, when before it was something eccentric like a Pepsi Max and a sweet pastry.
Mommy says: You truly are a coward and an unevolved person parading like you have had growth bc you pop pills. How do I know this? Palestine is the moral litmus test. You have allowed a GENOCIDE of thousands of children and innocent civilians in palestine to pass you by without uttering a word from your platform. Disgusting. You are a horrible role model and have truly learned nothing in all these years. Stop pretending.
Maxiwrong says: Popping over to someone’s house is one thing, growth is another, but popping pills is for sick people. Besides that, having learned from your videos, I couldn’t care less what people think, it might be the truth, who the fuck cares? What I care about is money and a good wine. Palestinians passing by? No way, if I saw them I would certainly notice, I’d be disgusted, this isn’t Palestine, this is Australia, in the process Leo’s some kind of wise man so Leo, I’ll say this one thing, I know this is literally pixels on my phone, I’m doing the exercises, like I did the exercises about my survival, I changed my morals, there’s other things I need to change, man makes a comment and I’m not denying it, I hope to sometime evolve.
