As a libertarian, my position on this never changed. The mainstream left and right completely swapped positions on this issue in the last five or six years. Looks like it's switching back now. That said, there is a lot of evidence to suggest the state is deeply involved in these social media companies, even from inception. So how private they actually are isn't so clear.
Many in the libertarian party are wishy-washy on this issue too. Once a company gets so big that has to effectively bribe government officials to stay in business, it has become part of the corporatocracy that is our government. Forcing publishers to publish content they don't believe in is idiotic and wrong. Forcing a large mega-corporation platform with a de facto monopoly that gets CDA 230 protection to not censor speech, is recognizing the fact government and megacorps are very intertwined in the US. Politically, I am closest to libertarian but disagree with caucuses that push the idea that corporations like Google and Twitter should be free to censor. I believe Twitter is only free to censor if it gives up its platform status and the CDA 230 protection it provides. If Twitter did that, it would quickly be sued out of existence because it was used to coordinate violent riots that killed people and did billions of dollars of damage. The only way we should let businesses get CDA 230 protection is if they are held to the same requirements the US government has to not restrict speech.
Libertarian only works without cheating lying psychopaths aka jews.
