Meta pays a lot. Most people there don’t work on the shady stuff and don’t pay attention to what else is going on.

That’s generally the case for everyone I know who works there.

Many of them are even quite liberal and will join protests for things that Meta has actively and negatively played a part in, so they’re in effect protesting their own workplace indirectly. But will continue to work there because they can compartmentalize this.
