Nobody mentioned the government. A platform can choose to allow free speech or not. GP seems to be advocating for free-er speech on IRC platforms, including speech critical of the hosts or supporting competitors.

A platform secure in its dealings, that has garnered solid mutual respect and consideration has few worries about critics and thus no real reason to worry about critique.

Solid criticism can be acted on and that adds use value for everyone. Not solid, or unjust criticism will be judged collectively and just is not a major concern.
