I find it very interesting that Google will voice support for the Black Lives Matter movement, but it won't allow others who support BLM to monetize their YouTube content. Google loudly and proudly supports their LGBTQ+ employees and marches in pride parades every year, but won't allow advertisers to support LBGTQ+ channels. Google loudly denounced Trump's Muslim-ban but thinks advertising for "Muslim fashion" might cause PR issues so blocks it.
These are not the actions of a company taking a stand for what's right; these are the actions of a company that's always playing the PR game for the sake of their bottom line. As someone who has worked there before, Facebook is just as two-faced in the exact same way.
