You're confusing free speech with US constitutions' first amendment. Not all of us live in USA. Free speech is a universal right, independent of the platform.

You're confusing free speech with US constitutions' first amendment.
Not all of us live in USA. Free speech is a universal right, independent of the platform.
Now US government respects this freedom and executes it on it's platform, that's the public space.
Now, on the other hand, many US companies don't give you the same freedom. They don't allow the free speech on their platforms.
We should be thinking whether it's good or bad and don't muddle the discussion with the American-specific PoV.
I personally don't like to see companies having any morals. There's nothing courageous about it. I would like to see companies have ethics instead and follow them to the best of their abilities. Ours is the privilege of judgment.

Corporations are people and don't need to take moral or political stances, especially when there is still so much work to be done just getting Corporations to behave at all ethically.
