>> I agree the supreme court is the wrong mechanism to regulate social media. Congress should.

Then the ruling party of Congress could possibly influence what is or is not allowed on all platforms, perhaps even influencing future political elections?

So because the supreme court is your preferred branch of government to defend free speech and because the supreme court is not very democratic you think Americans shouldn't have free speech on social media. What an absolutely remarkable argument in its own right. I hope you are proud of your ability to construct arguments like that.
