GitHub renamed the master branch to main just after they got flack for not canceling their ICE contract.

One of those changes would have cost them real money.

With Amazon they probably want to score some cheap progressive points to paper over those awkward and possibly illegal union busting tactics that threaten their bottom line.

This. Big biz does not care about humans (and their rights). Amazon/Tesla behaved illegally against unionization, sell stuff made in countries with little protection for people and nature.

But they put a rainbow logo on and now all is cool.

I can't say anything about Amazon, but if one looks at a 20 year timeline, there's no company protecting nature more than Tesla.

Regarding worker rights I think that central banks destroying money by printing ,,infinite amount of dollars'' are the ones to blame, companies are generally in a hard position, that's why they can get away with inhuman tactics :(

Please read either the link below or a book called “the history of money” to know why you’re wrong in this statement. Central banks printing money has saved these workers you speak of.

Lithium mining is by no means protecting nature. And couping a country to get cheap access is something Musk openly bragged about:

Maybe electric is an eco net positive compared to combustion. But we are yet to find out. And the Tesla solar roofs, where are they? I'm afraid the roofs were merely a way to get good eco PR on the Tesla brand. And doing Tesla with one hand while putting rockets full of fuel on the other makes Mr Musk even more contradicting.
