In this case this isn't people voting their own manifest destiny. This is a Texas law that decides a California company must operate in Texas, and that whilst operating in Texas it can't decide it's own moderation policies, and that if it does choose to moderate, it can get sued repeatedly in Texas. Oh, and not just for stuff people in Texas post - a person in Texas can sue this california company for censoring something a california person has posted because the Texas user must be allowed to see what the california person posted.
So to be clear, under this law if a california person posts a nude photo and twitter censors it, every single user in Texas can sue twitter, repeatedly in every different court, under the claim that the california person is being censored for their viewpoint that nudity is ok.
