Exactly this.
Social media companies also have the right to free speech. Which means they can censor, silence users at their will.
No. They have free speech meaning they bitch, yell and moan like everyone else. Censorship goes against everything free speech stands for.
Right or wrong, a discussion for elsewhere, businesses have the same rights as people. How is that any different than moderation of this message board?

That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.....
The first amendment of the constitution give's the right of free speech for Americans. American social media companies should be required to respect the Constitution. Everything else must... Why not social media?

Bro-- Private companies do not have to follow the constitution for the most part. They can limit your freedom of speech, right to own firearms on their property, etc etc and I could keep going down the list.

First amendment protects you from being arrested for free speech by the government. Getting banned from Twitter isn't tyranny.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Pay attention to those first five words
People who think congress should make a law forcing companies to platform speech are the ones who don’t understand the amendment

Indeed.
The Bill of Rights (1st 10 amendments) largely protect Americans from the Government. They do NOT protect us from one another.
