In the US, tech companies tend to support Democratic policies and candidates. This probably has to do with their focus on issues like net neutrality and immigration reform, which align more with the Democratic party. Also, I don't think that political donations necessarily reflect a company or its employees' political beliefs, because generally a small group of employees at a company are responsible for a high percentage of donations. To the Democratic party, in this case. Which means that the frequency distribution for employee donations probably are long-tailed, with a relatively small number of employees making a large proportion of the donations, where the majority of employees make no political donations, and a small number of employees make a disproportionate number of donations.
What issues from the republican side would a tech worker want to support?<p>Especially the republicans that ran in the midterms(with an actual plan besides let's troll the dems)
I way almost shocked when I first saw it, all democracies of the world, and human rights, forbid discriminating people by their political views, and some of those companies, if not all, are even public. I do not think such level of bias can be achieved by any kind of casualty, there must be some kind of selection or purge of employed people, which makes it a discrimination as wrong as racial or gender discrimination.<p>Hope to know your thought, as the weight of those companies in society is undeniable high, some of them impact directly society's culture.
