I pretty well despise Meta, but not hiring people from there because you disagree with the product is not okay. If I did that I'd never hire another former Googler in my life. I'd never hire someone from Microsoft, and I'd certainly never hire someone from Amazon. This kind of thinking, first and foremost, will only result in a culture of fear (eg: what company will be next to be unsafe on my resume?) It also is a quiet signal that certain people have given up on the long fight to change things. Changing things is hard, but it is just that - a long exhausting process. It requires patience and changing people's minds and perspectives, not by strong arming, but by aligning incentives in a direction that's better for the majority.
