This is not necessarily a _bad_ thing, but in this world it is impossible to be apolitical. The only thing you can be is okay with the status quo.
In the end, few of us can be Nelson Mandela. We rage against social injustice, but in the end we still expect to be paid and sleep under a roof we own. So, in a sense, all of us are "okay" with the status quo, up to a certain degree. There's no shame in knowing your own limit.
Everything is not identity politics or partisan politics. "Everything is political" is the very definition of newspeak and it's sophistic.
> In our age there is no such thing as "keeping out of politics." All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.
Every time we decide to act or not act in the public sphere, it has political implications. That doesn't mean it's specifically partisan or identity politics, but it is nonetheless political. Choosing not to speak up about something is just as much a political decision as choosing to speak up.

Of course people will come out of the woodwork to talk about how "my very existence is political" or some other nonsense. Ie. exactly the kind of thing I'm glad Coinbase is banning at work.
In fact, operating in the status quo has absolutely no bearing on approval of the status quo.
However, everyone still has a right to engage with society in the manner that they choose. Expecting everyone to analyze every action for political ramifications is simply unrealistic. On balance I suspect my political views align with the people I work with, but I explicitly prefer not to discuss politics at work.
As a progressive, it's easy to imagine this from the progressive side: corporations could be powerful agents of change with the goal of moving society forward. However, there's certainly a nonzero number of atheist and progressive folks who work for Hobby Lobby. "But they should just work somewhere else!" you say. Why? And what if they can't?
A conservative Christian can work side-by-side with a progressive atheist at a great company and change the world together. That's the power of liberal capitalism.
This isn’t a cause I’d want to spend any time on, but it is trying to make a change.
