This one is hard as I have a gut feeling that sometimes it does happen as I have an Anglo name but am Asian-American. However, if it does happen, it may also be a place or team I wouldn't want to work for.
It's hard to explain but the 'bro'-ism can be deeper than you may think. Let alone a cultural fit a manager may be trying to achieve - as "cult of personality" will also tend to pull out all the stops to "prove" themselves..
But without feedback from the interview loops, we just don't really know.

Exactly, never had issues so I call BS on that one.

Isn't that more-so up to your employer to decide if it's an extra advantage? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I think intentionally obscuring who you are isn't solving a problem.

I'm not in the job market, but I have a LinkedIn account. Despite occasionally nudging from LinkedIn, I have never bothered to add a profile picture.

"everyone". Is it discrimination if I can prove that I was rejected for not having a social media account?
> In 2021, everyone has a LinkedIn account now, especially in the US. Check for candidates' LinkedIn profile links and check their profile pictures. If there is no profile picture, that's a red flag. (explained later why)
