Logan is also an outsider and doesn't understand or care about the way that looks. Whereas the rest of the roster definitely wouldn't be caught dead posting something like that. He doesn't need the WWE to pay his mortgage...

Logan's a douchebag but he's a HHH guy so he's gonna join in the thing that's essentially against overthrowing HHH's power.
He doesn't need the WWE, that's just reality, he can drop them immediately, this is a hobby for his interests and wants to be there because it's a dream of his
He does not give a single shit if they fire him, so he's gonna do this shit. Other wrestlers will fear for their jobs and their card positioning, Logan Paul will not.

This does make you wonder with all the uncertainty if anyone will look to get out.

Logan does seem to actually respect the wrestlers and the craft and the wrestlers seem to like him and respect that's he's taken it seriously.
He also said recently he wants to go more full time, dude is in a position of power in the sense he doesn't need this and may have just stood up for the locker room.
He could also just be f***ing about for a laugh, but either way, I respect it.

It's funny with Logan Paul posting that; he can't really get in trouble as they're not going to risk another negative PR event and he doesn't need WWE anyway so there's nothing they can do to him.

Logan and Rock have history as well so that's probably part of it.

I have a little bit of hope. I think the Rock apologized for how tone deaf he sounded asking for donations for Maui What choice did he have? He also donated money to the writers strike after making comments basically saying he didn't care. He's tone deaf. I’m not saying the apologized from the goodness of his heart. But if he was forced into that then he can be forced into dropping out of mania

Not going to be super shocked if WWE starts having "dissension" if this builds enough momentum and start having undercard people do it, too, to provide a reasoning for Cody/Rock to change their minds in kayfabe as a way for WWE to try to grab the reins of this, same as they successfully did with Bryan (well, eventually).

That's mad, and it lines up with the power struggle because Logan is a Hunter guy through and through “…the winner of the match, and NEWWWWWW United States Champion, Solo Sikoa!”

You're gonna see some people call this shit out, some will act like it was the intended plan the whole time now or in a few years like the WM 30 Daniel Bryan situation and I will be over here like NO NO NO, THEY WERE NOT THIS SMART AHHHHH

The Hart/Benoit/Bryan tradition of the desired challenger facing multiple opponents to win the title seems to be holding true. But, I think fans are getting tired of having their expectations subverted.
Wrestling has historically always been responsive to the fans. Push Face A but the fans want Face B? You give Face A something to do to keep him in the spotlight but let Face B get the push to the title chase and the run. If you keep pushing Face A, eventually your overall ticket sales drop, your merch sales drop and you lose Face B to another promotion that sees both what he's drawing and what you're doing to yourself.
Right now, Cody is Face B who's just be pushed aside by the company's idea of a Face A - who just also happens to have executive power on the board of the company thanks to an outgoing executive chairman who's now under federal investigation for sex trafficking and sexual harassment. Dwayne Johnson is Vince's avatar and his poison pill for the company.
