If Facebook bans me, I can still use Twitter/Reddit/LinkedIn/TikTok/YouTube/WordPress/my own website. If Con Edison bans me, there are literally zero legal ways for me to make electricity come out of my wall sockets.

That's fair, Con Edison has an actual monopoly (more or less, it's weird and you can license third-party power), while Facebook just has a plurality of social media attention. Hell, I didn't even have a Facebook until last week when I bought my Oculus Quest (though I used a fake name and a burner email address), so clearly it's not vital.

As I said before, i agree with the OP, I was just trying to entertain a different point of view.
