For that matter, I have an issue with the way he paints the list of the most prominent tech companies as though they each have some master agenda and are all approaching speech in the same nefarious way. There's a big spread there such that his approach here does a disservice to the reader.

As you point out, there's a lot of nasty hateful speech being spewed, and cooler heads are asking if there's a way to simmer it down. If we believe that such a request is a path to censorship, then perhaps the real answer is that those with different political / social / ideological points of view need to become more aggressive with their counter approach.
