The Gaslighting Template
The above asbestos story timeline highlights the CENTURY-LONG gap between evidence of asbestos’ dangers and official recognition.
A dang century. 100 years. Same old, same old song and dance every time.
NO MATTER THE TOPIC. [Asbestos, Tobacco, COVID & Other Vaccines, Fluoride, etc.]
- Someone notices the thing, and finds evidence of a connection.
- They dismiss it as “correlation not causation”
- Then there’s more evidence.
- Then there’s more direct evidence.
- They continue dismissing it: “the harm could be caused by so many other things besides this”
- Then there’s more evidence.
- They continue dismissing and sometimes add mocking and labeling you as crazy to thwart the mounting negative impact due to the public seeing the obviousness they keep denying.
- They get their little “regular everyday people” as pawns [and internet trolls] involved now who help them dismiss you and call you crazy, so they can continue perpetuating their atrocities
- Now they demand some more detailed kind of evidence and proof—moving the “evidence goalposts” each time.
- Most often the type of “evidence” they demand is such a direct connection that’s literally and physically impossible to provide due to so many variables factors, and if you can’t produce what they now demand, they shout with glee “see?! you’re crazy!”
- But the claim was true ALL ALONG.
- And there’s NEVER the “evidence” they require…
- Until there is.
Because they’re not really asking for “evidence”. They’re basically laughing in your face that they are able to keep getting away with something because you haven‘t yet overwhelmed them with so much evidence that they can no longer deny and dismiss.
This is what I call the “public awareness tipping point”. It most often takes decades upon decades of “evidence” mounting up, until one day they simply cannot deny any longer.
Then they admit it. The ones labeled as “crazy people” say “we told you so!” for the billionth time.
And the cycle continues, as they keep committing new atrocities which they will get away with (and make billions off from) for a few decades or more.
And rinse and repeat.
Don't Cooperate
Stop playing the “internet evidence games” with their pawns.
Say what you say. Make the claims. Keep making the claims.
Don't let them shush you; shush them. Delete their comments which are playing the evidence games and then tag them and say “your comment was removed for containing dangerous misinformation”.
Do not let these pawns even have this kind of voice in your comment sections.
