Somehow this does not register well with free speech enthusiasts. As much as twitter removes or labels one set of media, it also refuses to remove or label another set of media.

It is unfortunate that what is true and false has devolved into the hands of global corporates, whose interests and ideology is often different from the environment it operates in.

It registers fine. What you may be glossing over is that Twitter itself has free speech - so it is free to do this, unless you have something akin to a fairness doctrine.
