Because freedom of association cuts both ways.

I also dont like the power that massive corporations have over our lives, but the solution isnt some absurd regulation, its to break them up

What is freedom of association, isn't that different from freedom of speech?

I think you're probably right about that. Maybe another option could be to create a publicly funded, rather than corporate advertising funded, "town square" social media platform as a viable alternative, where all lawful speech could be voiced and protected?
