In the US, you let corporations decide how to exercise their right of free expression just as much as anyone else.

Freedom of speech means you are permitted to seek collaborators to help you spread your speech, not that others are obligated to disregard their own views to help promote yours. That kind of entitlement would violate the free speech rights of the forced collaborators.
