It's motivated reasoning. They attach their ego to the clout they imagine they have through their reach on Twitter and fear losing that pillar of their identity if they leave the site bsky.app/profile/stol...
I don’t get why that key detail is so hard for them—they seem to genuinely believe they’re too smart for it?

In which case—will there be an insurgent challenger? And could RCV actually clear a path for them and people who demand more than jawline?
