> preaching anti-whiteness and anti-male hatred. I do some consulting for companies and have been put on a handful of their internal mailing lists so I directly see what kind of racist filth goes out to the actual employees.

As somebody very skeptical of this characterization but that admittedly does not work in FAANG I would love to see a copy and pasted example.

I prefer not to break NDA's or risk doxxing at this time, but here are 2 fairly recent examples that have leaked in the mass media from large corporations.

I don't doubt that racism like this sneaks into D&I presentations, but I have to call out that the sources are the Daily Mail and NY Post--both are known for bias and not being especially reliable sources. At the same time, I don't think more authoritative, centrist news outlets would cover this story, either.
Famous FAANG companies: Coca-Cola and AT&T.
You've either missed the principle discussed here or are being willfully disingenuous.
I personally think the principle is ridiculous, especially when focused specifically at these companies. I'm a white male who works at one of them and find "anti-white anti-male hatred" to be a frankly laughable depiction. The fact that the cited cases are in unrelated businesses is just icing on the cake.
Are you really trying to say that these two companies are working the same way as FAANG?
