Gaslighting Covid-19 Explained

Video Transcript:

Firstly, I want to start by defining what gaslighting is. If you haven't heard that term before, it comes from a movie gaslight that came out a long time ago, where a guy was manipulative to a woman in order to get some jewels, I think. But either way, that's where that term came from. That's where we have it today. But what gaslighting is is a form of manipulation. The reason that someone would even gaslight someone else is because they want to manipulate them and make them question their perception, their sanity, and even their memory. Sociopaths and narcissists are known to use gaslighting in ways to get their needs met. Governor says FEMA gave the state 400 ventilators to that he said this. What am I going to do with 400 ventilators? When I need 30,000, you pick the 26,000 people who are going to die because you only sent 400 ventilators. The governor now projects that the state will need up to 140,000 beds with an additional 40,000 ICU beds. Sociopaths will use it to gain something. They will want to control you or change your perception in order to get what they want. If you remember, people who are sociopaths can be extremely charming and they can be really friendly and make us want to trust them. So they will use that to their advantage and make us question our memory, our perception, and even our sanity. As you know, I had my daughter who was in isolation. And I was very aware of what she was dealing with and what she was feeling. And I'll tell you the truth. I had some of the best conversations with her that I have ever had. She was alone for two weeks with her own thoughts, not talking to anyone else, no noise, no activity. And we talked about things in depth that we didn't have time to talk about in the past or we didn't have the courage or the strength to talk about in the past. We're definitely going to second guess ourselves and wonder if what we're doing and the choice we're making and the things that we're thinking are even correct at all. And if we should be even in a position to make decisions in the first place. The hospital ship docked March 30th on Manhattan's west side. USNS comfort will relieve pressure on the city's public and private hospital systems already on the front lines in battling coronavirus cases. The city will open new temporary hospital facilities at the Billie Jean King Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, Corona Park in Queens. The new hospital can house up to 350 patients. The additional beds will serve COVID-19 ICU patients and provide capacity relief at Elmhurst Hospital. The city's fire department and emergency management teams join FEMA to bring 250 more ambulances and roughly 500 more EMTs and paramedics to the five boroughs, helping increase medical transport and assist the FDNY with responding to calls. Son of a bitch.
