I think the relevant distinction that Brian makes is not "political vs not-political" but "relevant or not relevant to the business". It seems they are comfortable engaging on political issues that are directly related to what they are doing. For example, affirmative action is arguably a political topic, but it would be on the table for discussion at Coinbase because it's relevant to how they hire.

With that, I can more easily agree. I am then not sure how it devolved (in my opinion) into being "apolitical". I definitely see the point of keeping a company focused on its task, though probably we have then the same discussion with different terms.

  Not, as a company, taking a stance on Trump v Biden would probably be an example of being apolitical.
