That’s not the way this works. You actually have to provide a structured set of evidence, not merely a theory of conspiracy. Analogously, you don’t see people plausibly claiming that Biden designed a program to hand billions of dollars worth of weapons to the Taliban. If there were evidence, then such a hypothesis could transform from irresponsible theorizing to responsible theorizing. But there is no such evidence. You have flipped the script on what you call “gaslighting” to evade the necessary evidence.
