    I don’t understand what you mean. How is one “memory holed”? Presumably this means to encourage people to forget, which is why Sandy Hook is a weird example. Not only was that one of the biggest stories of that year, it echoed through the news cycle for years through lawsuits, the Alex Jones thing being the most famous.

    It’s ironic to use anything as an example of something people forgot.
