You are quite clearly uninformed about critical theory. It explicitly treats truth claims as power plays and nothing else. Look up repressive tolerance and then get back to me. Most of the time, the purpose of the culture Marxist’s mendacious tricks is not to convince anyone but to DESTABILIZE the existing structure to bring about the utopia.
That’s fine. That doesn’t change the fact that it’s not “gaslighting”. It’s just lying and misinformation.

Well, I think you’re missing the point. It’s more than a lie. It’s layers of lies whose intention is to change your perception of reality, or actually to deny reality itself, and doing so by attacking you for having a different opinion.
Lie:
2+2=5
Gaslighting:
You filthy racist! How dare you deny my existence and do violence to me with your patriarchal privilege by denying my lived experience that tells me that 2+2=5!!!!
