What the !$@#$ is “deplatformed”?

I looked it up with less than 5 mouse clicks. That's many fewer than you used for your "ignorant and proud of it" bitching.

What do you suggest for a better word to describe something that largely didn't exist five years ago?

Hardly ignorant. As if not knowing some made-up word is a big deal compared to something such as, oh, George Washington’s life or the course of the RevWar.

How about just “terminated”? Rather than arrogantly coming up with a new pointless word?

Yeah, because that’s all it means - the page/account was taken down and stopped. As if that really needs a new word because it “didn’t exist 5 years (more like, 20 years) ago”?
