You're never going to move large groups of people by just yelling "xxx is terrible!" You have to make something better that people want to use to get them to switch. Unfortunately, Slack is better than IRC in many ways that matter to a lot of people. Ignoring all of those things doesn't make IRC better, and it's not going to make people want to use IRC over Slack.
