And the people angry about that have popped up in every Mozilla and Firefox discussion for a decade to let us know that Firefox is too woke and now we have a corporate browser monoculture.

Well done folks, your MAGA browser culture war has ruined browsers just like it ruins everything else it touches.

But maybe they'll actually ban gay marriage again and it will all have been worth it for you.

Funnily enough, it's the same people who argue that corporations are people and should have free speech.

Firing the CEO was an expression of said free speech.

No it isn't. I believe it was wrong to fire Brendan Eich (because I believe it's wrong to fire any employee for their activities outside work), but I also don't think corporations count as people and have a right to free speech under the constitution. You're painting with too broad of a brush.

Upvote for proving me wrong.

It has been my perception that it's usually not a principled objection in this case, but mostly people mad because they share those specific beliefs he was fired for.
