Not if enough folks think your posting there is a sign you're an ass.
If you hang out in a bar with KKK memorabilia everywhere - and open the replies of any reasonably popular news story on X before complaining that's not a fair comparison - people make conclusions off your presence, even if you're personally there for the tasty beer.
Even if it were true, that is not the logic they cite though. They make up a story of the impressions were reduced relative to the platform's old days, not absolute terms; they don't address the cost of tweeting being minimal at all, almost certainly a year of tweeting would be less costly than writing a rant blog post against X. Many brands just autopost everything everywhere for syndication purposes.
So we know why they did it. They wanted to take a stance against X. They just didn't have the balls to say it out loud or the dignity to leave quietly.
I have never seen KKK posts on X. Either you're commenting from personal experience, in which case, wow, who were you following, or you're going off reporting which would seem to be a bit skewed.
Those people would have long left X though so I'm not sure why the existing people would think that. If you're talking about external people judging them about posting there, no one thinks that, like the sibling comment mentions. People will just think at worst that they might need the reach of X so they begrudgingly post there.
13 million impressions a year isn't enough to be worth copy-pasting a few posts from Facebook?

X "impressions" are not worth very much
At least half of those are bots.
>there isn't enough people left there to be worth the tradeoff
what tradeoff?
This is what I haven’t seen a single person defending this attempt to answer.
What cost is there to post on X at the same time as the other platforms? Zero. It’s not like they need to moderate forums.
We all know what the people defending this are doing it for and EFF barely plays into it at all. This is Musk Man Bad, nothing more.

X has more active users than it ever has in its history
Sounds like: I wont get out of bed for $100k
Same, but I'll get into bed for half that
Ah I see what you are saying. You are a mattress tester.
