Notice the conflict? He's against free speech for corporations because then they'd dominate politics ... but of course they already dominate politics.

If companies already dominate politics, that supports my point. The recent USSC decision wouldn't bring about such dominance.

But in reality their dominance is more fictional than real. They certainly have an impact but not an overwhelming one, and also they are not a unified block, they fight for different ideas and programs.
