The way it works in a capitalist society is, if you don’t like the products or services being offered by others, you start a company of your own and offer a better alternative.
All this whining and pissing and moaning about the media companies started by lefties and used for their benefit is frankly nauseating. Knock it off and grow a pair.
Should they still be able to take advantage of the safe-harbor provision of the DMCA? It seems like once a company chooses what content it allows then it is more of a publisher than a network service provider.

No. That is not "How it works".
They claim to be platforms but behave like publishers. They can't be both. FB, YouTube, Twitter, Pinterest, Google, Vimeo etc all claim to be communication platforms like, say, AT&T. AT&T is not responsible for the content of peoples phone conversations. That makes them simply a platform However, if AT&T censors phone calls, they become a publisher because they are choosing content and that changes their status and protections. They must decide if they are platforms or publishers. They are lying when they pretend to be one but behave like the other.
In a capitalist society, companies also do not get special gov protections, government venture capital money, etc. They also don’t have private meetings with government leaders and execute censorship policies on their behalf as a sheep dip to let the government feign innocence
They aren’t completely “private” it turns out.
They were right. They don't need to grow a pair, you need to grow a brain.

They are more than just media companies. They are also acting as political advocates who provide substantial in kind benefits to the Democrat Party. There are regulations and laws that govern such things and they are clearly violating them.

Dude. You have NO CLUE what you are talking about.
got you. So a company can monopolize and control political speech and conspire to control the information tens of millions receive about elections.
good stuff!
