This “passive endorsing” is a great social construct! It allows anybody to go after TMobile for passively endorsing all the lies I said to pretty women over the phone.
That seems like a bit of a strawman. There's a pretty significant difference between public and private speech. Regardless, I'm not arguing what or when these platforms should censor. Just trying to explain why certain content on a platform could cause someone to choose to stop using that platform, even if they're not personally exposed to that content.

This explanation seems pretty strange to me.
1. If I am not exposed to some content - how do I know that it exist?
2. If I see that platform does not delete an objectionable content and does not force me to contact it - I would feel much safer in re that my non-objectionable would not be deleted too.
I'm not sure why you would be concerned that your non-objectionable content would be deleted regardless. Either way, it sounds like you put greater value in freedom of speech, whereas others put greater value in condemning speech they find harmful. I can see how reasonable people could have differing priorities there.
