Yes they are. Some people don’t vote out of apathy, but others don’t vote as an explicit leftist stance. This has a long history going back at least to the 1800s. It’s a shit stance, but unfortunately pretty popular.

Really not a reasonable take. Social media is great for discovering new things, people, and groups of interest. Sure, you can do that outside of social media too, but in a much slower and more limited way.

Also, lots of housebound disabled people use social media for their main source of socializing.

Yes, loads. It’s very useful for non-anonymous groups + events.

This is a stupid distinction to make. There is no speech that doesn’t affect people materially.

“Free speech” is a morally neutral thing. Most leftists don’t go on about “free speech” because it’s not a value we hold. We value tolerance of people of different races, genders, sexualities, and so on. The issue is not speech in general – it’s the content of speech that matters. “Free speech” sidesteps the issue of what is actually being said.

And also, the idea of “choice” is bullshit anyway. People who don’t comply with their doctor’s recommendations generally have reasons for doing so, such as depression, insecurity, and horrible side-effects to medication. Good healthcare finds and addresses those reasons instead of just blaming people for being affected by them.
