If you don't even stand behind your statements you are nothing but a coward. Why would anyone take you seriously

I've always felt confused by the idea that viewing a users public profile should be considered somehow private and that clicking on their name in a post should be considered stalking.

The fact that it should be available implies that its expected functionality and that one should expect prior posts to be visible and read.

In this case the info obtained is that you know this opinion is disfavored enough that you created a separate account to express it. Again pretty obvious and in itself unlike the opinion pretty noncontroversial
