This debate is pretty old already. The analogue to electric companies is ISPs, not social media companies. Social media companies are analogous to appliance companies. GE or Whirlpool are within their rights to stop selling you fridges because they disagree with you politically. ISPs aren't treated as common carriers at the moment, and these laws were enacted by the same political party that treats this as a free speech issue. So I have trouble taking seriously any politician who supports such laws. They're hypocrites; pure and simple.
