To me it feels like since the covid pandemic, there is this widespread desire to "Do something" amongst corporations and pretty much every group in general. It's not just enough for them to comply by the legal sanctions put in place by the state, they have to feel involved and socially engaged in every single widely mediatized issue. You could also see that with how a lot of corporations went overboard with covid restrictions and measures "just in case and because we are all in this together". It's a bit maddening because the reactions are mostly trash and completely unhelpful since the people who take these decisions are usually clueless when it comes to foreign relations. It can even be counter productive, because I'm sure that if this would've hurt russia in any meaningful way the state department would've probably pushed for these sanctions in the first place. Maybe this is not a recent trend at all but from my perspective it has been much more apparent in the past 2 years. Just compare this to back when corporations/non profits were pretty keen to open businesses in say, the Soviet Union or China with every loophole they can find instead of doing the exact opposite like we see now. Or internet corps trying to open new markets and connect as many people as they could instead of...this?
