We're hosed.
But I agree, private platforms and user submitted content should be free from government influences. Should heavily moderate their own platforms. And be liable to civil suites in the case of egregious lies and slander, like the insane lies and claims of Trump. Should not have to respect your rights to say whatever you feel at the moment, and shouldn't encourage knee-jerk heated commentary.
If you want to say crazy shit. Print your own leaflets, host your own webserverver, buy your own megaphone and publish your own blog. And if that blog calls for murder and insurrection. Well, you aught be held accountable for inciting violence.
Don't force others to host your drivel. YouTube isn't beholden to StormFront. Or Alex Jones.
