I usually look at it from the other end of the telescope - what would those companies be forced to do if they couldn't censor? Perhaps they'd be forced to platform conspiracy theorists, people who push ivermectin as an effective treatment for Covid, etc.
To think that, you would have to believe that a private company like Amazon would be immune from any legal action if they, for example, posted signs throughout their warehouses with derogatory statements about women and minorities.

Again, maybe people do think that. But in 2021, it just seems like a completely anachronistic opinion. I really can't believe that most of the people saying the "they're private corporations" line really believe that the law should allow Amazon to do that?

Well, you would not, because that is not public expression. As I said, hard to cram every angle into one tweet. Amazon is more than free to put up billboards saying the same, however.

No they are not.
