Ed, I like you do not like where some companies spend their money and what they choose to support.  However, in America they have the freedom to do what they want in supporting whatever agendas they like, just as we have the right to not support these agendas or the companies that support them.  Could be why Ford stock continues to flounder.

The real problem we are faced with is the products of these companies are not bad, faulty, or anything else any more so than their competitors.  It is the management that chooses to support areas that cause turmoil among its clientel.  As always, where you spend your money is your choice and if that isn't enough to change a company's trend in what it supports, spend that money elsewhere.

Freedom of choice:  your choice, my choice, their choice;  that is what the USA stands for.  Sometimes there is bad with the good.
