Gaslighting: How Deception Shapes Perceptions

Gaslighting: How Deception Shapes Perceptions

Sometimes people try to trick others by using false information or twisting the truth.

This has happened for a long time, like when companies convinced people to use toothpaste instead of old methods like neem sticks.

They also promoted cereals as a healthy breakfast.

Movies often show characters in a biased way too.

This kind of trickery is called gaslighting, where people are made to doubt their own reality.

It is happening in many areas, and the people being tricked often don't even realize it.
