to be clear, most companies, including Sentry, have an internal code of conduct. this is almost always there for employees, and commonly also for partners. sometimes its even carried all the way to vendors (think anti-corruption.. this shit matters) this often says things, paraphrasing, like "doing dumb shit reflects poorly on our brand, so dont do it or we might have to dissolve our relationship" its a pretty status quo thing, and if you're not familiar I bet if you look at your own company's handbook/policies you'll find this. there's different words for it, but code of conduct and acceptable use policy are two common examples. its not about politics, its not about religion, its not about anything in particular. its just there to cover "bad behavior is bad". people have a right to their opinions, but those opinions in some scenarios consistently cause backlash and financial harm to the organization. its a pretty common sense thing and I dont understand why it doesnt seem to exist in venture firms.
