I don't like this trend of financial providers issuing moral judgement, de-banking people, and more either.

I'm pro-BLM but learning Silicon Valley Bank gave BLM millions of dollars before it collapsed rubs me the wrong way.

I need my banks and financial institutions to do their primary job first and foremost. I'm getting to the point where DIE marketing is become a signal of poor upper management trying to hide failures.

There is an interesting investigation into that claim written up on Talking Points Memo - https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/a-quick-look-at-the-lyi...

Basically the Claremont Institute tallied up announcements of corporate charity that went to anything related to racial minorities, and called that "giving to BLM and supporting riots."

The core point still stands, why are they giving ANY money to charity at all ?

Why does anyone give money to charity? Usually because they want to support the cause.

Giving money to charity while your business fails doesn't make sense
