The court clearly found that wrongly because they do say that there are other non first amendment protected speech that the government can indeed suppress on social media.

It’s just these few non first amendment protected items that the court is ideologically opposed to that the government cannot suppress.

This is a famously narrow category (eg CSAM). The gov often can't even suppress state secrets. I think most people are fine with this category existing, even if there's disagreements on what's in it.
