In reply to the discussion: The worst part of that speech for me was when he said that NATO has never and would never answer the call for the US [View all]druidity33

do you mean that only the responses in the graphic are acceptable? Or does the requirement have to do with causing antagonism with a statement or something? Because i gotta say, none of those responses are likely to work in a non-partner gaslighting relationship. I am in favor of using a collection of words that will most expediently remove myself permanently from said gaslighters authority and purview. "Fuck you asshole!" with a walk away seems perfectly fine to me, assuming you are not going to get bludgeoned when you turn your back on the gaslighter.

He's a psychopath. I'm unequivocal in that conclusion and he is in his exhibition of the support of my stance.

He is wrong, of course. The ONLY time NATO invoked Article 5 was immediately following 911.
