The "public square" is not a legal concept. Property and speech rights are. If we're discussing changes and nuances of law the general response should follow legal principles.
As to social media companies, they too have free speech rights. In the Supreme Court ruling Reno v. ACLU, the judges ruled unanimously that the Internet is a free speech zone, deserving of at least as much First Amendment protection as that afforded to books, newspapers and magazines. As such, your rights to post your beliefs ends exactly where another entity begins.
