Are you a philosopher? Perhaps some other type of person who benefits from appearing as if he or she were a highly objective reasoner?
If not, you probably benefit from appearing empathetic and humanistic. In private, with trusted allies, it is fine to talk about the more, let us say, repugnant propositions that can be derived from one's beliefs. However, in public, one must be wary of what bullets one bites.
