I guess this is the reason lot of corporates try to stay out of politics. Because once you set a precedence then people will use that as to push their own political agendas. I personally don't like the slippery slope argument since it's very lazy and justifies inaction in many cases. But at the same time when I see news like this, I just wonder how long it will take two different subgroups trying push their own conflicting agendas and how the company should react in such a case.

There is no such thing as "staying out of politics". Everything involving people is a political act, and if you don't notice it it's because you have status quo politics.

Probably side with the one arguing that we should not commit atrocities.
