I like how you didn't know the word, so you used two wrong words that have the same sort of gist! Haha
Retconning is only for fiction. As for gaslighting, that would be pretty hard to prove...
"Misrepresenting" might be a better word there
We're under siege by an actual fascist takeover, millions of people are being hurt, detained, starved, bombed, and killed; and you're on here arguing about the colloquial use of retconning and claiming gaslighting is "hard to prove"? That's the line in the sand you're gonna draw?
Jesus Christ, we're fucking doomed.
