Gaslighters gonna gaslight.

Gender, race, & class: the 3 most-abusive prejudice-systems, rightly called-out by Angela Davis, decades ago, in her book.

"Tax the rich" means "make the rich pay their fair share into the tax-base", and that ISN'T racial-slur, & pushing otherwise absolutely-is gaslighting.

Keep the discussion calibrated to objective actuality, not to propagandists/psyop-pusher's disinformation.
