So basically these companies are proving allegiance to a single political agenda. If you don’t censor those who are critical of people in power, (but only on behalf our specific friends who are in power) then we pull your funding. This has got to be the most unsettling thing I’ve seen in a long time, maybe ever.

As well as major corporate backing. The yes vote, which failed by 15 votes, had 25.1 million dollars spent vs 1.7 million for no. So if even the most liberal state in the union can't pass it, with such high funding for it, it doesn't seem like it's popular with the general population as you state. Again, 15 point difference, in California, with over 23 more million spent.
