I don't think gaslighting really applies to anonymous internet trolling. The reason it so often relates to people in intimate relationships is because there's a long standing personal connection through which the pattern of manipulation is expressed. It seems difficult to claim gaslighting in the context of multiple people sharing multiple views on a message board.

you can gaslight someone with one post.

Can you? How do you properly demonstrate gaslighting without a long pattern of behavior to examine? Not to mention that gaslighting as we typically conceive of it involves a lot of isolating as well, which is almost impossible on a message board like this without significant effort. The psychological impact on those who've experienced the typical form of gaslighting is far worse than most of what some might call gaslighting on a message board.
