That idea has no bearing on reality, you likely support many businesses owned by right wing assholes indirectly just by living somewhere that doesn't use 100% renewable energy for all of its power needs, for example, and so do I, you can't really help it. Corporations are people under US law and they have been doing political speech under that regime in the form of unlimited spending for over a decade. If Amazon actually believes that black lives matter they should indeed say it. False neutrality and saying that black lives matter is too political a stance for them to want to take is a stance in itself.
