Just remember that Mozilla gets over 90% of its revenue from Google.
https://calpaterson.com/mozilla.html
In 2018 Mitchell Baker (Mozilla CEO) received a total of $2,458,350 in compensation from Mozilla, which represents a 400% payrise since 2008. On the same period, Firefox marketshare was down 85%. When asked about her salary she stated "I learned that my pay was about an 80% discount to market. Meaning that competitive roles elsewhere were paying about 5 times as much. That's too big a discount to ask people and their families to commit to."
By 2020 her salary had risen to over $3 million, while in the same year the Mozilla Corporation had to lay off approximately 250 employees due to shrinking revenues. Baker blamed this on the Coronavirus pandemic.

Something is wrong when the king needs to censor the jester.

Why is Mozilla Foundation doing political activism? Is it just some money-grabbing scheme or what?

Not a single word about Firefox, just some far-left propaganda about racial justice, empowered women in tech, Trump bad, and so.

"Do they have a shortcut/hotkey for quickly switching to google (and other engines)?"
Yes, simply add !g to your search query.

Mitchell Baker (Mozilla CEO) makes $3 million a year, and Mozilla asks you to donate "to help a nonprofit organization".
"On the same period, Firefox marketshare was down 85%. When asked about her salary she stated "I learned that my pay was about an 80% discount to market. Meaning that competitive roles elsewhere were paying about 5 times as much. That's too big a discount to ask people and their families to commit to."

This lady then goes on and on talking about "social justice".
Also Google deal produces 90% of Mozilla's revenue. I would say Mozilla is really controlled opposition.
I hate cancel culture even more than web3.
