There is a “legitimate” gaslighting technique while being awake of being hypnotized called #NLP #neurolinguisticprogramming that uses hand motions that this guy was clearly trained in

My stepmom #2 I was introduced to at an NLP conference after my late dad’s shotgun wedding circa 2000 & it’s unfortunate I wasn’t more curious about it then b/c it’s incredibly dangerous & evil

Tony Robbins uses it & so do politicians like DJT & DeSatan. Also slogged through an entire documentary I would have preferred not to have watched on #keithRaniere #nxivm doc #TheVow after hearing a blip about his business partner #NancySalzman being the 2nd highest practitioner of it in 1992

More people should be aware of its existence #psychopathy #sociopath

The best defense is offense & #knowledgeIsProtection

Lotta thoughts about #TheVowPart2. For now what sticks out is #NancySalzman believing that she could cure Tourette’s Syndrome with her half-baked, intrusive, ableist, aspirational CBT. It says a lot about the #NXIVM project as a peak + insipid expression of neoliberal tyranny. /1
