I think part of the reason why Free Speech folks see defederation as a free speech violation is because of the nature of the old web.

We published our things on our pages. We publish toots.

But the moment we started posting on community boards and forums we started to form communities. We exercised choice of where we spent our online time.

That's the freedom of association part.
