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.
You can do all those things while also not supporting FAANG. Schindler couldn’t have done what he did if he wasnt part of the Nazi party.

Depends. If you can find another employer that’s more ethical (which is not guaranteed just because they’re smaller) and pays as much with as flexible a work schedule, yeah, you should probably do that. Otherwise it might indeed be necessary.
I don’t know, are we doing concequentialist ethics here, or deontological? I feel like we’ve reached the level of splitting hairs where we need to decide. For the purpose of actual advice people reading might follow, I’d say just try and be a good person, and don’t let perfect be the enemy of better.
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.
