      “You can’t just change your URL and frontend and pretend you’re X. Even if someone did some editing on your backend, you were born Twitter and you’ll die Twitter!”

      I have to mention I’m trying to make fun of transphobes, but idk if it’s coming through that well so I’m adding this disclaimer letting you know it’s an attempt at a joke. It’s just ironic because these arguments do work for Twitter (presently trying to be known as “X”)
