Alright, guys: the background on the Two Minute Hate against RSS is that in 2008 that one of the owners (not the company) exercised his First Amendment rights and donated $16K in support of California's Proposition 8, which sought to codify legally recognized marriage as being between one man and one female. Proposition 8 was supported by the Catholic Church (and more pertinently perhaps to the owner of RSS) the Church of Latter Day Saints; the proposition passed, with 52% of the vote (i.e. over 7 million voters.) While implementation of the proposition was later challenged and delayed on technical grounds (and of course mooted by the recent US Supreme Court ruling) "gay marriage" remains a contentious issue here in the States, and one whose repercussions have yet to be defined.
In short, the owner of RSS was acting upon personal convictions shared by the majority of his fellow Californians--and US citizens, for that matter--including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton (whose husband of course ushered in DOMA, back in the day.) In other words, it's a dead-lock certainty that if you are an American citizen, you have engaged in some sort of economic transaction with someone who has agreed in principle with the owner of RSS--singling his company out as an entity beyond the Pale is at best infantile virtue signaling, incipient fascism at worst.
