I just want to understand where to place my chip on my hypocrisy bingo card. It's really hard these days.
My opinion is that sponsors get to put their money where they want and it has absolutely nothing to do with free speech. That's the risk when you do something edgy, controversial, or illegal -- you run the risk that sponsors decide you aren't worth the potential association. That's pretty much a fundamental tenant of capitalism.
