Gaslighting is a form of mental abuse where you tell somebody something they experienced is wrong and tell them what they really experienced. It was primarily used in clinical psychological literature up untill the 2010's. It's taken from a play where a husband tries to convince a woman she is insane because she see's the gas lamps in their house flicker (he is using extra gas for a to search an attic above for the hidden jewels of the former tenant, who he murdered) and does not want to be discovered. He categorically denies her claims, to a point where it causes her to wonder if she is in fact losing it and her perceptions are too flawed to be aware.

Now it's of misused by the SJW type as an accusation against people who say things contrary to their opinions. Subjective opinions clashing aren't gaslighting.

Thank you for the description and mini psychology lesson! I read this before it popped up here, and I had a feeling that word wasn't used right. Mainly because when you pick up some newfangled terminology, you use it repeatedly like what he did.
