Some people who research white nationalism don't make specific accounts for research purposes [1]. In general, and based on my own usage patterns, I think it's probably dangerous and definitely scary to assume that googling for "X" on your primary account implies that you support "X"

The whole point of natural rights is that normal law-abiding people shouldn't need "opsec" against their own government or domestic corporations.
