I don't work in the Valley, but in my large Facebook-analogous Seattle tech company my experience reflects his. I actively (and successfully) avoid discussing politics at work (I'm closest to a classic liberal fwiw). My company lobbies for and promotes several left-leaning positions (e.g. immigration, which I agree with) in official communications, and I've been on both the passive and active receiving-end of multiple left-leaning political rants since I've joined. I've never heard any such officially expressed views or political rants from coworkers expressing right-leaning views. Just a data point but I suspect it's not an uncommon one.
