> Companies shouldn't be encouraging employees to be political

Yet the very act of any type of business dealing is inherently political. To deny that is to misunderstand the word itself. It's a shame that people have weaponized this term (political) and use it as a pejorative. Similar to the term social justice 'warrior', for people showing solidarity.

To not see this truth is to be culturally grandiose, in my opinion. Read Yash Tandon's 'Trade is War' for more.
