    Who was co-ordinating the tweeting of "Learn to code" at Ben Popken? Perhaps I can put it another way "I don’t believe that we can afford to take a neutral stance anymore. I don’t believe that we should optimize for neutrality." - Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Feb 5 2019

          I would call it a single abusive tweet. Not a coordinated campaign, not specifically targeted at any Twitter user. This isn't complex.

            Suggesting people tweet "learn to code" at journalists wasn't specifically targeting Ben Popken
