Whirly, since you agree, do you genuinely believe I was just trying to make you think you are clinically insane? Since that is, after all, what "gaslighting" means, and you agreed with Bash that I was just attempting to gaslight you. Interested to know.
I genuinely think Snow is at least fairly left-wing, he's pretty big on social issues, no idea what his economic views are tbh.

I understand that is what you want to happen. But that's not how the census works, we count residents to get a total population count, not just citizens and as explained multiple times, the number of House Representatives is dictated by population.edit: Look, I think it's bullshit that each state gets two Senators, when California and Texas have huge populations and Wyoming and Vermont have tiny, comparatively speaking. But it is what it is.
Would it be more fair if New York City got to dictate gun laws for the entire country, and suddenly Vermonters or Maine aren't allowed their guns despite their relatively low gun violence rates?
Whether such a thing is even legally possible is irrelevent, I'm simply pointing out different regions have vastly different ideas of public policy. The most populous cities shouldn't speak for the rurals, and vice versa.

No, I don't believe NY should be able to dictate gun laws for another state. Your example is also a faulty analogy. What does that have to do with undocumented immigrants being counted in the census as they're also "residents"?

I was responding more to your two senators despite bigger population.
True democracy essentially gives major metro's complete control of the country.
And New York City has far from sensible laws, in my opinion. Don't want New Yorkers running the country more then they already do economically.

Covert narcissists have zero self awareness, which leads to projection.
It's why they think everyone else is constantly trying to do what they are.
They don't actually think you're gaslighting, they know they're gaslighting then putting that on you so they can punish you instead of themselves, while claiming victimhood.
It creates what's known as an invincible victim, which is the worse kind of bully.
I recommend ifs or CBT to all those who think everyone is always gaslighting.

Are you denying the existence of covert narcissism ?
Or that they use victim blaming and blame shifting ?
Or that I recommend to them CBT or ifs therapy ?
I wasn't pointing the finger at any one here, but it's interesting you took a defensive response, which is also a tool of the narc.

ICE announced on Friday that it was shuttering the Victim of Immigration Crime Engagement office and replacing it with a new program to provide victim support regardless of immigration status of the victim or perpetrator.
"All people, regardless of their immigration status, should be able to access victim services without fear," Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement.
Acting ICE Director Tae Johnson echoed those comments, saying that ICE is "committed to serving all victims of crime."
The Trump administration launched the victim support office in April 2017 as a fulfillment of the then-President's executive order on immigration. Formation of the office followed Trump's repeated public comments linking immigrants and criminals, most notably a speech in which he referred to Mexicans as criminals and "rapists."
Critics said at the time that the office was part of several measures that would skew public opinion against immigrants
Good! 👆
