Well let's look at our options:
1. Government - Not a great track record on limiting fringe speech, it seems to descend into totalitarian objectives
2. Institutions/Churches - Not a great track record of tolerating logical speech that is inconsistent with their beliefs
3. Corporations - Capitalism is the best process we've found for spreading freedom of choice.
Nothing is ever perfect, but when 1 & 2 fail to do it right it's catastrophic. When 3 messes up, they lose their own shirts and the damage is more contained.

When people are forced to stop talking they resort to violence, in the same manner that other species in the animal kingdom handle their disputes. Let people talk.
