    I don’t appreciate your attempts at manipulation and called you out on them.

    You seem upset you got caught and upset you aren’t being allowed to keep making things up.

    We do not agree, you’re attempting to equivocate your poor conduct with my straight talk.

    Not how it works. By all means, “touch grass”.

        No you don’t, or you would engage honestly instead of trying to manipulate the conversation and imply I’ve written something I haven’t.

        “I’m sorry you feel that way” is textbook gaslighting, a quick way to use the correct apology language to end an argument without having to admit fault” (Forsythe, 2021).

        • Gaslighting is psychological abuse through verbal, written, and/or physical actions that cause the recipient to question their reality.

        • A non-apology is used to deflect, pretend to apologize, and ultimately win the disagreement by placing blame back on the individual.

        • The insensitivity of gaslighting often lies in the lack of self-awareness and self-inquiry to address control issues and avoidance of apologies.

          Hey, I’m not that invested here. It’s cool, we’re good.

          I don’t have a horse in this race.
