I disagree that everyone still calling it Twitter are still using Twitter and doing it as a coping mechanism. Also I thought a couple of other things said weren’t the best for making your point but I already pointed them out.

Where have you pointed them out?
You told me to come up with a better example, I came up with several, and they still of course have the old domains.
If it’s not a coping mechanism, what is it? What is the end game? Enlighten me…

See my first comment here if you’re confused what I mean by where I pointed them out.
And the “end game” is just clowning on a dumb thing Musk did. The rebranding specifically. That’s it. It’s not deeper than that.

You’re clowning on it by insisting the name didn’t change? Okay…
I call it x, because that highlights that the dumbass Nazi killed a very valuable brand and changed it to something dumb. I don’t call people who call it x dumb, because that’s its new name. You’re not clowning on Muskrat, you’re clowning on a random person who simply referred to content on the website x (formerly Twitter, because the dumbass Nazi paid out his ass for it to turn it into the Nazi platform X).
…
I said companies change names, you asked for better examples and posited that it’s still Twitter because twitter.com forwards to x.com, I provided several examples of brands changing and keeping the old domain, you deflected and accused me of making the stupid domain argument in the first place, and completely ignored your answered request for better examples.
Weird.

Nobody calling it Twitter is denying that the name changed. You’re seriously overthinking this and making it into something it’s not.
