Giving up your morals for money is morally bankrupt

Agreed. Just working for somebody bad doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve given up, though. I mean, they made a movie about Schindler, and we all know who he worked for.

Sure but an employee for FAANG and an undercover antifascist aren’t really comparable

Why not? Unlike Schindler you don’t have to worry about how many beatings are necessary to keep up appearances, and you might have a specific role that exposes you to very little evil at all. Meanwhile, you can donate some of that big wage to people like EFF, or volunteer using the flexible schedule.

Saying things aren’t comparable is just shorthand for saying “I’ve stopped thinking or considering this”.

Literally everything is comparable, especially an antifascist and the person they’re covering as.
