Of course is not. The statist legislative regulation of speech in a whole country is a completely different proposal than fairly punishing privately the conduct of one individual that lies or perpetrated calumny. Don't you agree?
Society puts/accepts restrictions on citizens behaviour for the wider good of society. Exactly which restrictions, on whom, and when, are always a matter of negotiation and shifting priorities. The classic example being someone shouting 'fire' in a crowded theater when there is no fire. Banning someone from your theater for doing that for a laugh is not narcissistic or arrogant, and only authoritarian in a pretty reasonable sense.
