> Coinbase, whose mission is to create “an open financial system for the world.” That’s inherently political, ... he’s basically asking his employees to support the political stance that he is advancing.

No one is joining Coinbase if they're opposed to Coinbase's financial system objectives. It's not a secret.

If someone was actively opposed to Coinbase's primary business objectives, how would they even be a productive employee of Coinbase in the first place?

It's a false equivalency to try to equate the company's core business with completely unrelated political topics.
