Are You Using #Gaslight Correctly? One #rule of thumb can help determine whether the word is being diluted.

A good rule of thumb in testing whether the word is being used correctly is to ask yourself if the supposed gaslighter is in a position of power. If not, it’s difficult to imagine a situation where gaslighting is really happening—just like it’s difficult to imagine Black Lives Matter activists, who are dedicated to acting on behalf of the powerless and vulnerable, engaging in gaslighting the American public. Unless it’s serving the interests of the #powerful, gaslighting just doesn’t ring true. I wanted to express that idea in this Thursday clue: “Methodically manipulate someone with less power into questioning their own perception of reality.”

  1. “Above all, those who have experienced misfortune, not by mere accidents, but through some kind of injustice, that is to say, those that one can most certainly count amongst malcontents: those are the [people] that we must call into the bosom of [the Order] as into their asylum.” ²

  2. [By far the most potent inducement to offer is the promise of power.] “The pupils are convinced that the Order will rule the world. Every member therefore becomes a ruler.” ¹

The Universe speaks in many languages, but only one voice. The language is not Narn, or Human, or Centauri, or Gaim or Minbari. It speaks in the language of hope; It speaks in the language of trust; It speaks in the language of strength, and the language of compassion. It is the language of the heart and the language of the soul. But always, it is the same voice. It is the voice of our ancestors, speaking through us, And the voice of our inheritors, waiting to be born. It is the small, still voice that says: We are one. No matter the blood; skin; world; star; We are one. No matter the pain; darkness; loss; fear; We are one. Here, gathered together in common cause. we agree to recognise this singular truth, and this singular rule: That we must be kind to one another, because each voice enriches us and ennobles us, and each voice lost diminishes us. We are the voice of the Universe, the soul of creation, the fire that will light the way to a better future. We are one.

Rule No. 1 – Practise fire magic well away from your house

Image number 399 in the Katharsisdrill collection of free artworks! I made this today completely distracted by some mathematician in The Guardian revealing that all the war games led to a nuclear war... Probably a good thing mathematicians do not run the world... better let the arseholes do it.

All I can do to participate in the crazy world myself is giving some sound advice on the practice of fire magic...

As my old Disapora pod which hosted this free culture project got closed I am posting my art here. You can see it using the #katharsisdrill tag.
