Gaslighting comes in many forms, and an increasing number of entities—ranging from political to professional—are doing what they can to manipulate information and influence to keep people from seeing certain harsh realities. In politics, you've got the feckless Biden administration doing this regarding the sorry state of the nation, but it's also happening in the movie/video realm. Perpetually angry Ryan Kinel has been relentlessly on the case regarding Amazon's "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" series, and now he notes that sites like IMDb are deleting bad ratings and reviews in an effort to portray "Rings of Power" as a success while calling the series's detractors bigots and trolls.

READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING!
All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.
AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's or Kamala's or some prominent leftie's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
