Is requests from employees to support Black Lives Matter what triggered this whole discussion?

Some employees wanted to support BLM, while others thought it was off-topic or didn't like it?

And Brian / the CEO then decided to not allow such discussions at the workplace? noticing that some employees got upset at each other, when talking about it?

(I'm in Europe and a bit clueless)

> weed out the bad apples

What were the opinions of the bad apples? That they wanted Coinbase to support?

I'm not in the US and a bit clueless

I wonder all this me too. This whole discussion is weird, to me, not knowing what triggered everything in the first place.

What are the political opinions you have in mind? (that could cause USSR-2 to happen?)

And what were/are the different opinions of (some) employees at Coninbase that triggered this whole thing in the first place?

> pushing the society we were escaping to into the society we were running away from

This is too abstract for me. Would it be weird if I asked for concrete examples? (of how society is getting pushed in a bad direction)

> I (and the other cofounders, and the senior engineering staff) walked away

I wonder what happened after that, how did you leaving affect the company

> No one thought he was lying until ...

I wonder what happened after that? Could he continue working as if nothing special, just failing to raise money?
