I’m just here to inform that “gaslighting” is a very real thing, and does absolutely contribute to PTSD and triggers. And you don’t really have any way of knowing what other people’s experiences are and how they have affected them.

E.g. you may have never been personally victimized by abuse, assault, institutionalized racism, patriarchal society, etc... but that does not mean those things do not exist and harm and trigger others.

That's what I disagree. You are using the term patriarchal society as it is a real thing. I dispute that. I also dispute the current existence of institutional racism. And I reject the idea that another person is responsible for "triggering" another person.

Not MRA. I'm not a fan of either MGTOW or MRA. I am usually actively fighting both of those groups.

He's not refuting them, he thinks he is, but he isn't providing any evidence of their nonexistence. So he's refuting nothing. He's simply asserting his beliefs.
