I wonder if he's going to listen to the advice and present as more milquetoast when using his real name, or double down.
I mean I have some pretty fringe beliefs too (mainly on the strongly anti-capitalist, progressive side of things). I'm not stupid enough to post those ideas publicly because they're far more likely to hurt my chances of employment than to help them.
But it's a good thing that companies find this out because I'm not a good fit for a sterile work environment.
My original post was not asking why; it was refuting the article that said it was a good thing in its face.
Well, yeah, but I'm European, which means I'm practically a Communist ;) I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt, because "dude, tone it down a bit, you're spookin' the horses" is easier to swallow than "everything you believe is wrong".
All while striving for positions of power that they keep and deny to those whom they pretend to represent.
They do not work well with other people, they dictate, intimidate and eschew real work.
Yet they are hired. The irony is that I agree with several of their positions, but make no mistake. They are horrible people who would march under any flag if expedient.
I know I didn't achieve that; certainly some amount of judgment came through, but ultimately I'm fine with that. Life goes on, etc.
For the record, your post comes off as a bit angry too! But I'll try to read it as if you were writing it with feelings of weary disappointment.
