A lot of awful people keep their mouths shut but they're racist, homophobic, transphobic, neo-Nazis, etc. I guarantee some have contributed to the Linux kernel. Many have been employed by Microsoft. One of them probably helped develop your favorite game.
Now what?
People need to get a grip on reality. Awful people are everywhere. If we stopped using every invention and piece of technology created by a monstrous person we wouldn't have a lot of things.
The important question is: "Are you by extension of using the [software] funding them or helping them achieve their goals to be a horrible person?"
The answer is usually no.
