In fairness, do we know for certain what happened in Facebook back then? Maybe some employees did protest, maybe they're the same people protesting now, even. Or they quit. Thing is, LGBT issues make engaging articles. Third world suffering? Eh, it depends.

Yet, I agree with the overall point because this is the crux of the matter: on average, one of these simply matters more—one way or another, see transphobes cheering—for people of this subgroup. This is us.

The usual notes apply: good on them for protesting, big media isn't helping, fully ethical employment is like fully ethical consumption.
