Good question. It should though
Holy shit what a newbie question. How long have you been watching the NBA, really?
Of course it does NOT count as a block.
The reason it doesn't count is because in order to count it as a block, you'd have to penalize the offensive player by giving him a missed field goal attempt, who was just fouled. They're not passing out missed field goal attempts on fouls. Not now, not ever.
Then there's the whole fact that maybe that shot doesn't get blocked if the offensive player wasn't fouled aspect of this equation...
This is pretty common sense stuff, tbh.
The fact of the matter is this shouldn't have to be explained to you. If this conversation doesn't illuminate you to the fact that you're highly ignorant about NBA basketball and that you should stop being so outrageously outspoken and confident with your opinions, speaking them as if they are facts, nothing ever will.

If the shot goes in it counts as an attempt and a hoop so it's not that far off to wonder why the block doesn't count as a block.

Again, not counting the shot if it goes in despite the foul would be tantamount to penalizing the player who was fouled. It is quite far off and quite different.

Why did the GOAT lose 6 times in the finals?

+1
FGA benefits the offensive player, if they're fouled AND make it of course it should count because the shot was made with an even higher degree of difficulty.
OP is just playing dumb though...

Yeah I guess but lots of shots are altered from fouls that arnt called and it's probably actually harder to get a block when the wistle is blown because most defenders ease up stop playing when they hear the wistle. I hear what your saying though I just don't think op's question was as bas as you made it out to be
Even if it doesn't count, I applaud players that do it because nothing is worse than you pretending you didn't touch the guy (touch foul) and the guy gets an easy layup after he knows the whistle is coming. If you're gonna get called for a foul, or your teammate gets called for a foul, preventing that shot without goaltending saves you at least 1 point.
Lol, OP

To give others a chance and maintain the illusion of parity.

Why did the GOAT only make 6 Finals instead of 9?
