"incite hate"

That is a scary, clever manipulation of language. Inciting violence is an exception to free speech because it is directly linked to a specific violent result.

"Hate" is non-specific, and not an action at all. It often means nothing more than offending someone or violating some political correctness. Hate speech is and should be protected speech.

Hate speech is protected from the government interfering with it. Other than that, there are no protections. Google or any other company or individual is perfectly free to give a platform to only the speech they decide to. Because they too are protected from government interference.

True, and we are free to criticize them for abusing their power. Further, we should reconsider the high amount of trust we place in Google, et al.
