I’m well aware. Can you point to the government control please.

Private companies using their liberty to deny service to the leader of the United States government seems like freedom to me.

Fine, this particular action is not government control.

But the argument that taking away power from people because they're "fascists" isn't like fascism is not a strong one. These people are supposedly an existential threat to the fabric of America, and there absolutely is not a single group that hasn't simultaneously deplatformed them.

It suggests a question around who really holds the power here.
