I'd be much more worried about governments telling me what I can/can't say, rather than private companies not letting me use their platforms to say it.

So you'd prefer being silenced by people who you have no control over, rather than a government you elected?

I'm not being silenced. I can setup a website easily or my own Mastodon, or whatever else. If I really wanted to make it more censorship-resistant I'd use IPFS and a decentralized JS framework for real-time communication.
