You can't, that's not what IRC is for.

Buy a shell/VPN and connect via that

You can connect to IRC server via TOR, keep noted some
servers/channels don't allow that.

easier, https://www.irccloud.com/

Okay, let me get to the basics first: full security and privacy
doesn't and cannot exist. Software is inherently flawed. There is no
silver bullet. Rather than seeking full security, understand your
threat model and adapt your communications accordingly

Let me rephrase what /u/Findlaech wrote:

You asked for "full anon/privacy". That's not possible, with any
software.

You have to decide what you want to protect against (the "thread
model"): is it just against random strangers? is it someone targeting
you specifically? is it general surveillance by a
government/ISP/company (and which one)? is it a government
specifically targeting you?

You'll want different countermeasures depending on the answer to this
question.
