How do LGBTQ+ people, who don't want to out themselves on their primary account, provide feedback since you need 50 rep to post on meta?

Original question:

There's some of fairly offensive stuff being left up and it seems that the staff believe it's harmless when it's not. I can't even speak up without outing myself to the greater world, though.

Further comments:

Technically I guess it's 5 rep, but given that most discussion happens in comments it's really 50.

These rep requirements are, of course, there for a reason, but the effect is still the silencing of inclusion in the discussion of people impacted by the discussion.

A modmoderator manually gave me the meta permission, but it doesn't seem to have worked.

How can we make sure people like me can be included, without being forced to post semi-inflammatory fake-questions on the main site?

This isn't a question *about* a Stack Overflow post.
