35. In some cases requiring a real name to use social media - "real" here meaning the name you use, not a legal name necessarily - would be helpful in a number of regards. Facebook isn't toxic because of that but for other reasons

I'm of two minds on this: I think anonymity is a super important tool for marginalized folks online. But it's also frequently abused by terrible people who want to be terrible with no consequences.

This is a delicate topic because the people who feel they've been harmed by FB-style wallet name policies (especially trans people) dominate the conversation on here and I think that, on the balance of the argument, they have the stronger claim

Yea I think there are a bunch of valid concerns on both sides. I think the converse to my earlier point is: Marginalized folks would benefit from being able to more easily peirce the anonymity of people who harass and threaten them.
