> the very idea that a company would display or promote politics in the work place

If only we could seal off the workplace from the rest of the world and keep it unsullied by politics.

The trouble is that if your work is meaningful, it's making changes in the world. Making changes in the world is a political act.

Online platforms make billions of decisions every day and they need a point of view to guide their decisions. Having a point of view is necessarily and inevitably political.

Pretending your choices aren't political is itself a political act. It's inescapable.
