Remember the WordPerfect company? Based in Orem, Utah, founded by two Mormons (Bruce Bastian and Alan Ashton).
Imagine the uproar if that company had fired people just because they happened to attend another church. Quite a lot more uproar in fact than that which is now caused by Facebook firing someone because he happens to attend a different political party. It does not take much imagination to realise the uproar would also have been markedly higher if the stakes were turned in that a 'right-wing' company had fired someone because of his 'left-wing' tendencies.
All animals are equal or so it is said, but some are a lot more noisy than the others.
