Well, no, because the gatekeepers (by which I mean the vast majority of editors, including magazine, ezine, and Big Six book publishers) may be liberal ideologues, but they also have an eye on their bottom line. The people you named above make piles of money for them, so they're not going to shoot the golden geese. That would be stupid. I don't think they're stupid.

Up-and-comers may be a different story. I didn't make a complaint about my own work; it's doing fairly well, actually, and I've got a novel and a few shorts coming out soon, published by people not me. I just said I felt like I needed to keep my mouth shut. I could be completely wrong about this impression. I hope I am, in fact, because I don't like to think that people I respect on a professional level could be that petty.

But why should I take chances? See how anonymous I'm being?

Maybe once I'm sleeping on a mattress made of money in a solid gold house on Yard Moose Mountain, I'll speak up more. At this point, I mostly don't. Because I don't need the personal or professional headache.
