Hundreds of tech leaders condemn Shopify diversity rollbacks, defend DEI in open letter

Take a moment to truly analyze which companies take immediate action on this, because this is a great indicator that they are far more dependent on government subsidies than on actual business.
These are the companies that will have guaranteed back channels for government to get your data, the public show is all a performance.
- I'm not sure what you're saying here. Are you saying the companies that support DEI are taking government subsidies, or that the company(or companies) that abandon DEI of their own will shortly after the American president targeted it are taking government subsidies? And which government are you referring to, America or Canada?
  
  They are saying that companies that take action the fastest are the ones most scared of losing government funding, implying that since all businesses want is money, government subsidies are a greater part of their income than the actual business itself. They also say that this also implies that those companies will be the ones to fold first when government asks them for anything like user data.
The same shopify that allows nazi merch to be sold? Shocking!
Good for the tech leaders.
