That is hard to parse. Eventually I realized you are saying: Didn't a person we refer to as "Wait but Why" post something along these lines recently?

That's the power of capitalization for proper nouns.

That power was diminished by the capitalized title appearing right after the first word in the sentence, which thus was also capitalized. Adding quotes would have made it easier to parse I guess.
