"real name" policies are evidence that there are people in charge who have never moved to another country
you wanna know what my real name is? according to whomst, exactly? hell in the US various federal orgs couldn't even agree on what my name was supposed to be. no, scratch that, even the social security administration, internally, couldn't agree on what my name was and changed it like 4 times over a 6 year stay

@eniko people always bring up this point and I think it's slightly missing the point, because the fact there isn't a single "real name" for a lot of people is part of the entire point of "real name" policies.
These policies are made to exclude those people. That's part of why they exist. They're made by people for who the question of a "real name" is easy to answer, and to keep out people for who it's not easy and simple.

@canteen @eniko that's the thing, it's a kind of malicious indifference. It's "ugh, those people are too much work to deal with"

@foone @eniko I honestly think this attributes way more malice than is going to be there. It's not malice, it's indifference.
