No, no, they will keep paying, of course, but only to those in the mainstream.

Which is an entirely reasonable move, right? I think that it came a bit too close to an 'eat the rich' moment for Google's taste.
Yes of course, though I wish they would stop donating completely, but that isn't how the game is played. Hopefully Google will at least contribute to both parties.
When the pendulum swings back to crazy conservative, after the country has had enough of crazy liberal, I assume google will have another change of mind?
There hasn't been any significant "crazy liberal" politics in this country for many decades, at the very least.

"Crazy liberal" would be things like actual in-national-office politicians advocating for nationalizing all businesses, seizing the assets of the rich, etc.

Advocating for all people to have basic human rights guaranteed to them is not "crazy liberal," it's common sense and common decency.
