You're free to make that argument and try to get a new law or amendment passed, but the existing laws and Constitution very clearly only apply to government.

You're completely missing the point. I'm making an argument about how companies should behave, not how they are legally obligated to.

Incidentally, YouTube, Twitter, etc. should be subject to far stricter regulation when they enforce speech codes and don't behave as neutral platforms.

The same can be said of jackasses spouting harmful drivel within the confines of free speech.
