Sheesh. Who cares who the publisher is, and what their political views are?
I normally choose by the author. Or recommendation from trusted sources.
I have bought a fair few books from Baen, some of which I could get elsewhere. Why? Because they treat their authors fairly and the books have no DRM that requires stripping when I should be reading, and their monthly bundles are excellent value for money, even if I only want two of the books. I'll usually look at the others in case I want to read them as well, and have found some new (to me) authors. I have also found books I didn't want to read. Not a problem, I simply don't finish them.
