What is a jive turkey?

The term "jive turkey" originated in African American slang in the 1970s and is used to describe someone who is deceitful, manipulative, or dishonest. It is often used in a playful or joking manner to tease or mock someone who is acting in a pretentious or insincere way. The term is not typically meant to be taken seriously or used in a negative or derogatory manner. It has since become a retro slang term that is sometimes used ironically or nostalgically.
