This is why the First Amendment needs to be applied to large social media companies that are of enormous importance to political debate

The first amendment shouldn't restrict anything that isn't the government.

I disagree. A democracy needs informed debate, and social media are an essential part of the debate in the modern world.

Allowing corporations to ban people or content essentially allows them to control the national debate, which is a terrible state dor freedom of debate, especially when there are only a handful of large social media companies which have aligned interests.

Then the salt-right should come up with their own social media platforms and not rely on Big Gubment forcing private companies to do their bidding, since they supposedly hate that.
