The willingness to live with the consequences of one's actions can be a metric for measuring the importance of those actions in a moral/ethical domain. I mean what we refer to with morals/ethics are things that are done independently of personal gain or advantage because they are the right thing to do.
Depending on what you write and where you apply for work, it may or may not affect your career. It's ok if your career is more important than what you want to say about political topics...the average political essay is noise.
It's also ok if what you have to say is more important than your career. There's no right answer in the abstract.
