In a professional context, using your real name? I never would, in this political climate. I probably never would have anyway, but morality is unimportant in the face of zealousness. I think most people agree that it's a stupid and irrelevant thing to care about, but nobody is going to be the first one to stick their neck out.
You're right, I am a pasty white guy, and I'm also not in the business of telling people what to say or not say. All I know is that there are a couple of magic words I can say that will instantly ruin my life.
