And what about when the government threatens private companies with new regulations or other actions if they don't suppress certain types of legal speech?

What about when companies "voluntarily" decide to supress anything that disagrees with the offical stance of the government and thus grants the government indirect control over that entire category of speech? Giving companies a complete free pass for censorship creates a huge backdoor that allows government censorship thrive with plausible deniability.
