I remember this wording from Rick and Morty, but does it also predate that?

Fun fact, the movie out of which this word comes from is available in high resolution for free on PeerTube, the Fediverse's answer to YouTube.

Vidiverse search isn't working on the instance I use. You gotta link to "1944 Gaslight" for the underprivileged?

Pretty sure the phrase is gas lamping, I don't know anyone that uses the phrase gaslighting.
