Soft boys do not fight logomachies like wordsmiths. They fight authenticity wars. These are silent competitions between returned war-survivors. The battlefield of the authenticity war is:
• Who feels most real?
• Who is least curated?
• Who desires least visibly?
• Who wants nothing?
The winner is determined not by Conglomerate Socials, but by a bombshell's perception. If she deems him "most authentic," he is granted proximity.
But this is where the structural flaw appears.
