Not a real executive IIRC. He resigned from the BoD. And he's the only prominent person to do something concrete and direct like that. The rest are putting out PR releases and posting black squares to Instagram.

I don’t disagree with you by the way. I find virtue signaling to be rather useless (if not outright harmful to helping causes).
