    It definitely started before then, but that’s probably when they realized they aren’t getting any push back from using it and can use it to slander anyone they want.

    I know in Star Trek DS9 ('93-99) there’s a part that’s talking about the native people resisting the authoritarian faction taking over. It talks about how terrorism can be good if it’s used to do good. I don’t recall if it uses the word specifically, but I think it does, so by that time it had become obvious enough that it was being abused for the writers of DS9 to talk about it.
