I don’t know if I’m being overly paranoid or what, but I can’t tell if it’s safe for me openly publish some spicy stuff under my legal name. Not to sound like I think I’m the most popular girl at school, but don’t most prominent leaders go by pseudonyms the rest of their lives? Not saying I’m Lenin but…

EDIT: Alright comrades you’ve won me over. New name, new me.

    If you are still somewhat young, its better to use a pseudonym. I’m not sure how “spicy” we are talking, but you might not be as much of an “extremist” when you grow up, so it’s better to not have these ideas permanently linked to your name. It might even affect job prospects, no matter whether you change your ideology or not.
