A fork requires utxo owners to sell to one side or to the other of the fork. Of course you have a choice to not sell, but if everyone moves to the side you don't like by selling your side then I win.
The attack vector is over self custody.

This has always happened with money. It's the same as it is now. Those who understand money and value their life over a long time horizon will keep the true Bitcoin. The other forks will die off eventually, even if they get a higher purchasing power for a while. It's brutal, but it keeps the network free from usurpers and gullible people who would be poor stewards.
I'll be sure to keep learning about this stuff though, refreshing my understanding, and looking out for my ass haha!
