So CloudFlare gets absolutely no say in what they host and serve on their private property because of "Free Speech"?

Maybe. We've already banned companies from discriminating on the basis of race. Would a limited ban on telecommunications infrastructure companies discriminating on the basis of ideology really be all that bad?

If anything, it would certainly free those companies from having to act as arbiters of moral truth.

That would be great, but sadly the companies are not doing it out of their own free will, they are pushed by the government in some way to do that. And so far legislations around the world only move in a direction to make that government involvement more explicit, not enforce more freedom.
