As someone concerned about climate change and very bullish on alternative energy, I still think this is a slippery slope. Google shouldn't choose who can use its services based on politics. GCP/Search/Maps should serve all legal businesses. This is both a moral (not legal) position and risk-averse one (who knows what employees will want to censor in 10 years).

I agree for "automatic" stuff / offers generally available to everyone. But I see no problem with Google avoiding a closer relationship / specific contracts.
You're talking about standard services, Google employees are talking about consulting contracts.

I'm not sure if you're making your arguments in good faith.
