Let's be real. You mean he should have stayed out of it if he was going to voice an opinion that doesn't match yours. People don't want apolitical, they want an echo chamber.
No, he should stay out of either side because business is about making money. I don't want to know what politics you support. I don't care for politicizing everything. It is a fucking turn off.
You want my money, do your job, sell me your product, give me your service, but don't talk to me about your hot takes on politics. Also religion as well. I and many many other people don't want to hear it.
Better that they tell us imo. If someone thinks that the people I care about don't deserve to exist for reasons no one can control, I'd rather know and avoid giving them money than to help them quietly gain influence and power until they can eradicate these people themselves.
There is a certain logic to this. I tend to agree that I would like to know. I also think I would probably find out I would have to be self sufficient if I truly did not want to give to bad actors.
Your comment might hold a valid argument, if your previous comments hadn't made it perfectly clear you take issue with the fact he praised something a politician you don't like has done.
Whether you agree with my character or not what I said was accurate for any business person/enterprise. It is really not beneficial and increases risk unnecessarily.
