Sounds like you don't actually have an argument.
I made a conscious choice to use my real name for the reasons stated above. But I have also been sharing my real beliefs with friends & family on facebook & elsewhere since I first joined. Hiding the real you at work or with friends is just making yourself a slave to the perceptions of others. Being valuable & refusing to hide attracts good people & allows you to shape your life in a way that serves you, rather than contorting yourself in ways that serve ideas & people you hate.
I still am off of twitter now, am mostly free of proprietary software (or at least working in that direction), I have a feeling I will be off of all centralized platforms in the next year or so & will be able to drag a lot of people with me. The goal is to be a sovereign individual, not some sort of shadow creature.
