Per my comment there, seems to be a term relating to a 2017 DJT retweet of an antisemitic post, and hasn't been notably used since then.[1] Bakkster Man (talk) 13:34, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Has this aged well?[edit]

It's not even been a year and I already think this failed the ten-year test. There are multiple other articles this information could be merged into if so desired (probably multiple with the most relevant pieces pertaining to each). Several that come to mind are acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk, Twitter suspensions, ElonJet, and censorship of Twitter. Attendees at the failed AfD last December variously proposed such pages.

Totally agree. Esolo5002 (talk) 03:10, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
