Salt Lake City and Boise are pretty liberal and both vote blue. Houston is overall pretty split, but has voted for a Democrat mayor for more than 30 years. What "political preferences" are you suggesting Facebook is afraid of from that focuses on the 3 named regions?

Facebook managers, who a large portion of are foreign nationals, prefer foreign nationals manage US offices. US citizens might not be as in favor of that and probably prefer US nationals manage US offices.

  That seems like a pretty outrageous claim. Do you have any evidence to support that? My friend works for FB Seattle and the "site manager" is definitely a white US citizen. What benefit would FB have from having "foreign nationals" run domestic offices? I'm trying to interpret your comment as anything but xenophobic, but I'm having a really tough time doing so.

    Just go look at your Seattle org chart. I never said there was a "benefit," just that foreign national managers prefer that foreign national managers manage US offices and that is why they fear offices in areas that don't adhere to this globalist orthodoxy that is in the bay area and Seattle. That should be self evident.

      This is nonsense. There is no "Seattle org chart." A given office may have a lead, but only small percentage of people in the office will report to the lead. In some cases the lead isn't even a manager. Personally, across four teams and six managers, only one has been a non-citizen and he was a permanent resident from an anglosphere country. Looking around, pick a random manager and you'll probably find a white guy from the US.

As an aside, I always find the blue versus red states a bit of a farce. When you remove the handful of outliers, you realize the vast majority of states have very close split, like 48/52. So calling a state red when the split is 55/45 seems inaccurate.
