I've been thinking we need to get aspirational and take it to the next level:

Instead of "X (formally know as Twitter)", the time has come for "Twitter (currently called X)".

Don't even acknowledge the current name of the site, just keep calling it Twitter.

"Trending on Occupied Twitter"

It's just a special capitalist operation!

just call it twitter. literally everyone knows what it is, and twitter.com still redirects there so who gives a shit what he's calling it. don't show his site the courtesy he doesn't show to his own daughter.
