I guess, I see what your saying. Most opinions are a matter of free speech to a certain point. I don't take that as leading to a necessary action, only the desire.
I'm saying his financial contribution is an extension of his opinion, and not an unethical or illegal act. It can easily be countered by similar contributions for SSM.
I see. I really need to learn more about the details in this case. Based on what I know I disagree with him being forced out of his job.
If his actions within the organization had been consistently and widely in conflict with the stated mission of the company than I could understand it. But it doesn't appear they have been. It actually appears that despite his personal opinion he has helped to build a company that actively promotes inclusion and accessibility. If this is all there is to it,then I think it may be an over-reaction.
We can't know every opinion someone holds and we can't assume that anyone will act contrary to a companies mission just because their personal opinion is different no matter how much power or authority they have within that organization.
People should be free to think what they want no matter how messed up it is but how they behave is another matter.
