The command @techAPJ send me did not work for me, however I ran the (slightly different) commands found in: How can I delete a tag in development database (on local)?
I got the following results, trying to delete my tag “testing” which has a synonym tag: “testing”.
[1] pry(main)> t = Tag.find_by_name('testing')
=> #<Tag:0x000055a268f6f990
