Why is the Indian American CEO obligated to discuss caste?

Must the Jewish founders of the FAANG companies share their views on the Israel-Palestine conflict?

I’d certainly hope the CEO would say something if their Israeli employees and Palestinian employees started firing rockets at each other on work time.

Any corporate leader of any identity should be able to condemn any kind of bigotry that may be occurring at their company. The targets of bigotry have a right to know the leader has their back. It doesn't depend on the identity of the leader, the perpetrator of the bigotry, or the target of the bigotry. And this is not a request to comment on events in distant lands.
