Why Words Matter When normalized gaslighting happens in the workplace, ask yourself what's the agenda?

Being hyper-aware of words can save you in an era where words become weapons to #gaslight #manipulate #coverup and #bully In the "war on truth" recognizing words that are used to lie is a serious advantage bulliedbrain.substack.com/p/why-words-...

Thank you so much for reading; the book is designed to fire up and wire in the reader's understanding of how #gaslighting works so it's repetitive and emotional (key for our #brains to learn) I really appreciate the time you've put into it as we are all under a lot of pressure as you note #Canada

When World Leaders Gaslight Jimmy Kimmel wonders what we can do when those who run the country tell lies

People need to know how dangerous #gaslighting is and how it can warp our reality and sanity It takes bravery to call it out and fight back against gaslighting #leaders bulliedbrain.substack.com/p/when-world... Thank you @just-jorj.bsky.social @yarkot.bsky.social for reading the #brain #science

Gaslighting Macrocosm Matches Microcosm Abuse cultures follow the same playbook writ big and small

bulliedbrain.substack.com/p/gaslightin... @yarkot.bsky.social Interested in #gaslighting how it works, why it's effective, the dangerous role played by institutional complicity? Time to expose and oust #abuse cultures infecting our world ruining nations, taking peoples' lives #disinformation #lies

"Where The Gaslit Brain excels is in its moral clarity Fraser is unflinching about the cost of truth-telling 'Not maintaining silence' she writes 'not participating in the institutional cover-up of abuse, is dangerous' This sentence captures the ethical tension at the heart of the book" #gaslighting

Hope the #gaslighting used in institutional complicity is glaringly obvious w/ the coverup of the #Epstein files All the systems that FAILED to protect victims - including those who were children - are on fire to protect the perpetrators under the lie they are protecting victims @yarkot.bsky.social

Gaslit #Brain review "Fraser’s warning – that assaults on the mind are as real as those on the body – deserves to be heard. Her call to pay attention to language and #cognition as acts of #resistance feels especially relevant in a time when misinformation has become both entertainment and currency."

Andor: Mon Mothma's Speech YouTube video by SWFT

www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmDz... This speech speaks to our time in disturbing ways It captures the War on Truth where we have a choice Fight for truth or bow down to lies When #leaders repeatedly lie it's a red flag of extreme loss & danger We must stop normalizing lies #resist @yarkot.bsky.social

Gaslighting with Silence Silence is a gaslighting tool that compounds the trauma of abuse

In the war on truth #Epstein survivors fight for #truth Those who prefer silence and silencing need to explore why that is The key questions around #gaslighting are always what's the agenda? Why the coverup? Why so afraid of the truth? @yarkot.bsky.social bulliedbrain.substack.com/p/gaslightin...

Critical for lawmakers to recognize the #brain #science on #gaslighting like #bullying #fear #intimidation #threatening it does physical damage to brains & should therefore be criminal Gaslighting destabilizes people & populaces making them dependent on the #gaslighter It's dangerous and destructive

Gaslighting Through Social Media When political actors manipulate the truth as if they're part of your social circle

We're in a "war on truth" and it's arguably one of the most important wars in history If we don't understand how gaslighting works they can lead us astray

Reason some in positions of #power - aka #leaders - use #bullying w/ its 5 core components Humiliation Fear Favouritism Retaliation, all covered up w/ #gaslighting that tells us the #abuse is for our own good, it's a necessary evil for greatness, is because it scrambles #brains People can't think

Thx! @just-jorj.bsky.social #Canada has many faults but our strength is #empathy #compassion many failed tries but on the whole trying #Brain #science supports our belief that we are stronger together #Neuroscience can empower us to win in the war on truth #politics #leadership #knowledge is #power

Learning how abuse cultures work is key to defeating them They're fuelled by damaged brains (visible on brain scans) They use 5 key components 1 humiliation 2 #gaslighting 3 fear 4 favouritism 5 retaliation We require tests of leadership's bodily health, why not their mental #health via #brain scan?
