Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Look this is an art imitating life imitating art discussion that I don't think its going to go anywhere, I'm just saying, on the one hand I appreciate the post trying to clarify things for people misusing these terms but on the other hand I don't think it's being honest with how they're being misused.
If someone doesn't lie to you and pretend it's not a lie, that can still be the start of Gaslighting and should be called out as quickly as possible so people know they can't do that.
That's not a misuse or problem that needs to be corrected just because it's not exactly what happened in a 1930s movie. Which is by the way still pop-culture not "actual" psychology.
A psychologist didn't come up with it, an artist/writer did. Science doesn't get to claim all authority all the time and humanity should be relearning the fact that art and culture DOES produce knowledge.
Posts like this, the dismissal of cultural or "pop" phenomena as less authoritive is part of why we don't - that's my problem with it, okay?
