They canned a new CEO (who had been working for them in other offices since their inception) for something he did 8 years ago that had the majority support of his community at the time
They didn't can him. He resigned because the people under him weren't willing to work for someone whose judgement they did not respect.
Moreover, saying Prop 8
had the majority support of his community a the time
really depends on how you define "his community." If you define it only as "All people who answered Y/N on the 2008 California Ballot," then yes by a narrow majority that is true. If you define it as "The people who live and work in Mountain View California," then no. His community was against it (see county by county results: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., Mountain View is in Santa Clara County). If you further restrict his community to "Employees and Major Stockholders of the Mozilla Corporation" then they were obviously strongly against it.
