Triangulation
Triangulation is a situation in which one member will not communicate directly with another member, but will communicate with a third member, which can lead to the third member becoming part of the triangle. The concept originated in the study of dysfunctional family systems, but can describe behaviors in other systems as well, including work.
Triangulation can also be a form of "splitting" in which one person plays the third family member against one that he or she is upset about. This is playing the two people against each other, but usually the person doing the splitting will also engage in character assassination, only with both parties.
The key word here to remember is Character Assassination. Gossip and triangulation is the method of Character Assassination. The NAA Victim-Victimizer software is specifically designed to assassinate the character of any person that is publically involved in the Law of One and Ascension material, especially if you are a Starseed and not culled by them in their programs of mind control, including MILAB groomed abductees with genetic enhancements.
