Personally speaking, until I have "fuck you" money, I would not choose to be active in public social media under my own name while worrying about maintaining or finding a job. Even if it's innocuous today, you have no idea what random comment you make will be deemed offensive by someone in the future and come back to harm you. Jokes that were commonplace and seen as mild humor even a few years ago can turn into cancel-worthy offenses if a mob comes after you.
What can you do if your job is demanding it? You might be able to get out of that requirement by citing privacy concerns and requesting reasonable accommodation: claim that somebody has been stalking and harassing you in the past for instance and you're concerned about cyber-bullying.
If they still insist, maybe it's not too hard to create a barebones account and just occasionally repost some of your company's press releases or blog posts. You're complying with their request even if it's pointless and stupid.
