I know the real reason why they are afraid. I have a pretty popular twitter for business. The left gets to bully people because the filters on Twitter have ensured the leftists have the most reach. So if you have a business page, you have to cater to the people with the most reach. Without the leftist censorship of moderates and conservatives, the leftists won't have a monopoly on reach and business account won't be forced to either remain silent or pander to the largest liberal influencers. Hogg knows other people see him as a top influencer in their accounts and they suck up to him. Once he loses that status people will start to tell him to fuck off more and more.
