Social media is in a very confuzed middle ground between publisher and public square. I don't want them to be the arbiters of truth nor do I want them to be megaphones for misinformation nor powerful tools for easy population manipulation... but here we are. The solutions aren't just in content moderation, but whatever it is, it is difficult.

"Megaphone" is a bad analogy. You hear a megaphone whether you want to or not, and it interferes with other discussion.
Social media was blocking posts that people wanted to read and even blocked private messages. That's privatized censorship; there's no other word for it.
I am honestly dumbfounded that people are excusing it.
