But I don't think you'd be able to go to any office if you consistently applied such a totalizing view. What I inevitably see happen in practice is a laser focus on recent local political controversies. I have a decent number of friends who say that vocally supporting LGBT rights is very important to them - but are happy to vacation in Singapore, where it's illegal for men to be gay.
Because it's virtue signaling all the way down. Not to be hateful, but if you look how the groups align it makes little sense. Those who most seek to protect those ignorant people call terrorists, or illegals who need to be sent back, are also those who support gay rights, despite the fact those two groups historically and currently trend strongly against it. I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers, I'm just an observer fascinated with how things are playing out. But recently it seems these virtues we all must follow or die only apply to Americans, and that doesn't sit well with me.
Context matters. Visiting a foreign nation which criminalizes homosexuality is not the same as supporting it, nor is it the same as if your CEO donates to an anti-LGBTQ+ cause, or if you find out that the product you are working on is being sold with knowledge to government agencies who break human rights with knowledge of that workplace rulers.
You cannot live your entire life on principle, some hills just aren’t worth dying on. This is really clear for the issue of the climate disaster. There is only so much a person can do, and industry has very much taken advantage of it and sold us the illusion of green consumerism. While people were busy buying energy savings light bulbs, industrial scale polluters simply kept on polluting. If the failure to tackle the climate disaster has taught me anything it is that living by principal is quite often a distraction.
Now back to the office building where all the businesses flag bigoted flags. Here is a hill that for me personally is to much for me to handle, unless my workplace would publicly denounce these bigoted views and at least publicly shame the neighboring offices, I would not want to be seen near there. If they did nothing I would interoperate that as complacency with bigotry and I could not accept that my workplace has those view (even though not directly stated).
(I’m ignoring what you say about terrorists and illegals [sic] as I don’t think I fully understand what you mean there).

EDIT: I know this sounds contradictory to my ancestor where I say that selling your service to ICE is a political decision, but it is not. What a person does is not nearly as significant as what a business does, and should not be judged by the same standards.
