I see. That makes sense.

For the same reason most liberals claim to strongly support freedom of speech and oppose censorship, then start screaming the moment someone says something they don't like.

Gonna disagree with you on that one.

It's worth remembering that "freedom of speech" doesn't mean that no one's going to tell you they don't like what you're saying. Most liberals - pretty much everyone, regardless of political ideology - does that. That said, I don't know of too many liberals - fringes excepted - that support calls for outright censorship. Not unless your definition of censorship is extremely broad.

Because it isn't a religious belief being protected, it's also company policy, not the giver of service.

Hobby Lobby was company policy too - didn't matter what any of their employees actually thought.

But more to the point - so what? Republicans have argued for years that companies should be able to hold "views" the same as people, and now they're trying to punish a company for doing just that?

This is without even touching the idea that the supposedly anti-interventionist, pro-"Invisible Hand" conservative party is now threatening a private company for abandoning a relationship with another private company for perfectly justifiable business reasons.
