Because censorship that most people fear is the power of the state stymying information flow and not private actors acting freely of their own accord. It’s when the states monopoly on violence gets leveraged to censor, that you see things like genocides, tyrannical acts, with no rival powers to combat them. If you don’t like Facebook, go use another site or build your own, we are blessed with that freedom. Facebook has the right to curate content for its users.
