Maybe just stop using your public persona. Open a new account under a different name. You can still be jart if anyone needs you there but why hold a public persona that brings in hate? And if you think you get special treatment in certain communities then a new public identity can help diffuse some of the negative rhetoric. Ideally all you want the public to know about you is your accomplishments not anything else. Go ahead and be proud of who you are in the physical world and digital world where you need to be for that cause but for passive conversation and such make a separate identity imo.

The dream of a supportive harassment free internet was never real.

Maybe not the best advice to give to someone who's already has a history of having multiple online personas under different names and getting in trouble for that.
