Nope.
> censorship, the changing or the suppression or prohibition of speech or writing that is deemed subversive of the common good.
(Brittanica) - note 'changing' and 'suppression', rather than 'elimination'.
> Any regime or context in which the content of what is publically expressed, exhibited, published, broadcast, or otherwise distributed is regulated or in which the circulation of information is controlled.
> The practice and process of suppression or any particular instance of this. This may involve the partial or total suppression of any text or the entire output of an individual or organization on a limited or permanent basis.
(Oxford) - note 'regulated' and 'controlled', and explicitly, 'partial or total', rather than elimination.
> Amplifying views you like
Ie, literally de facto censorship.
When every social network is owned by the yacht class, and they are "amplifying" everything except political views calling for a more equitable and less genocidal system, that's censorship. Definitevily.
