It's not really true. Many of us are living "in the closet". Indeed, some of the staunch virtue signalers are just pretending in order to fit in.

Yes, and that is f*ing annoying to have to do. Even if there are others doing the same thing, you end all end up being quiet about it. Super dumb that it's become acceptable to openly talk leftist politics in the office
Just because OP doesn't agree with the prevailing politics doesn't mean they agree with your particular beliefs.
This is true. Now that this is a couple of days old and unlikely to start a flame war, I’ll say: I’m an anarchist-capitalist. I tend to get along with the right merely because I grew up around them and my “social camouflage” fits them better.
