Eh, they’re perceived as more “lefty” than most of the stereotypically “patriotic” corporations of the US.

There are a couple of reasons for this: (1) Steve Jobs has/had a “crunchy granola” reputation (despite likely being a crypto fascist) due to likening himself to civil rights leaders and other “woke” people, and (2) they have a large amount of usage by people in the creative arts such as music producers, visual artists, and other people who the right would call “woke” without blinking an eye.

I think it’s all perception, and they are easily just as fascistic as the rest of the corporations. But they try to stay on the good side of a lot of people that care deeply about eroding democratic norms, and the removal of people’s rights – or at least claim to – that produce a lot of the cultural artifacts the right largely hates, but are broadly-speaking massively popular.
