You did not show a single instance of government coercion. Your argument, like that of the two MAGA AG's and the judge involved in the case, are not being made in good faith (as is nearly always true of all things MAGA).
Ron DeSantis routinely takes actions that are contrary to the First Amendment, but you MAGAMorons are silent (or praise him for it) whereas neither Twitter nor DOJ took actions contrary to the First Amendment, yet you condemn them for it. Whassup with that?

And now in Mississippi, a law has passed
effectively prohibiting those younger than 18 from checking out any ebooks from the library. You good with that, Mr. First Amendment? What all of these examples show is that "conservatives" applaud when their cynical leaders take
government actions overtly hostile to the First Amendment, yet scream like banshees when
private actors exercise their own First Amendment rights in a way that may impact the ability of conservatives to use these private platforms to spread lies and misinformation that explicitly violate their terms of service while harming American democracy and public health.
