This is a part of not doxxing yourself.
Lie about who you associate with, what you do, who your trans friends are, what politician is running in your city, all of it. Have fun with it. Lie about every detail. Be as inconsistent as possible. Your one dentist friend that has a certain story relating to their occupation is actually your 106-year-old WW2 medic grandmother. A story you have as a software dev was actually told to you by a weeb cousin in Japan.
The truth doesn’t matter anymore and nobody needs it. Nobody is keeping check. What’s important is keeping everyone safe and having fun with it.
Safety is more important than name checking the millionth local school board member that talked about “preserving Western civilisation” in a Zoom meeting. Fuck that guy.
Especially be careful when referring to trans comrades in your life. It is an insanely small world for trans people. I have ran into trans people I know IRL through trans internet forums. If the wrong people are browsing, what you say + a first name is really all you need.
Also, you live at Liberal Mountain, Idaho.
Nah, I live in Liberal, Kansas. DON’T COME HERE THE NAME IS MISLEADING.
There are lots of small towns named Liberal. There’s even a Liberal, Indiana.
It was fun hanging out with all 10000 of you guys at our town BBQ in Liberal Mountain town square in Idaho, my residence. I brought the chicken skewers.
And to the cute comrade that listened to me talk about Lego: Ninjago lore for 13 and a half minutes, you forgot to give me your # so I could call you and follow up on my other miscellaneous bionicle lore. Feelsbadman
You may now continue our conversation about bionicle lore, I apologize but my phone was very recently destroyed after I filled it with mayonnaise to improve the signal.
Okay, well anyway. I was saying that there are actually cancelled Bionicle games.
Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui was planned to be released for PC and would have covered the events of the 2001 storyline. The player would have been able to play as each of the six Toa Mata, exploring the island and battling Rahi. Though widely marketed and advertised in the months leading up to its original September 2001 release date, the game was suddenly and unceremoniously cancelled by LEGO. Varying reasons for this cancellation were circulated, not least of which revolved around the recent September 11th terror attacks, and subsequently that LEGO thought Legend of Mata Nui was too violent a game to be released to a North American audience so soon after the attack on the World Trade Center. However, according to interviews with former Saffire, Inc. developers, many former members of Legend’s development team do not believe this to be the case. In the late 90s and early 2000s, LEGO’s various media departments were used to regular mass employee turnover, often to the frustration of LEGO’s contracted development studios. Former Saffire, Inc. developers say this was a key reason Legend of Mata Nui was canned. In 2001 a shift in LEGO’s management allowed for a pitch from eventual Bionicle: The Game developer Argonaut Games to catch LEGO’s eye, and combined with Saffire’s well-known financial woes led LEGO to pull the plug on Legend’s development.[1] In communication with Bionicle fan forum MaskofDestiny.com, a LEGO employee only specified as “Michael” cited Legend’s chip compatibility and the timing of the release as reasons for the cancellation.[2] In February 2018, a functioning alpha build of the game was recovered[3] and through the diligent work of fan developers a beta version of the game was released to the public on May 12, 2018.[4]

Unless you don’t actually give a shit. Then feel free.
I get it, Americans and some other countries seriously need to protect themselves. This is not in fact the case in dozens of other countries. Fear of exposure is a part of the system that has kept communists from growing for decades and kept communists from passing on their ideology to their children, if you’re not particularly at risk then please consider being open. Here in Britain I’m a communist in my everyday life, even in some workplaces.
Being visible is essential. Being open is essential. Normalising is essential.
Opsec if you need to. Or don’t if you don’t need to or don’t want to. Ultimately to achieve some things we literally can’t.
