I'm not the person you were replying to, but here's my take.
We don't need to tolerate intolerance, but that's different than "freedom of speech". We can still refuse to tolerate intolerance while still protecting freedom (I'm purposefully ignoring the whole "inciting violence" and "pyramid scheme" that would make this illegal, not just controversial, for the sake of this argument).
Example: on Android, you can still sideload apps at your own risk, protecting freedom, while Google can still remove it from their store, and so refusing to tolerate intolerance. (wow am I really defending Google? Well I guess at least they used not to be evil).
