Trying to turn it into an argument of freedom of speech is just disingenuous, he broke the rules of the website and services and he got banned from them.

Nobody is denying him his freedom of speech, he is allowed his opinions but he isn't entitled to use these platforms when he breaks their rules.
Do you agree with their rules?

Hypothetical question for

If one of these companies hired a person with a totally different political opinion to you, and they saw that you called somebody a Nazi or some other name, and they decided to kick you off the platform for hate speech basically because they didn't like you and your opinion.
