Discord is purging alt-right, white nationalist and hateful servers

[Attackrabbit]

Can we all agree that Discord is a damn great service for voice chat?

I certainly don't agree with that.

[Machismo]

I certainly don't agree with that.

Well, what voice servers do you prefer?

[Noxx79]

You linked a YouTube video.................

The irony is overwhelming.

[Endus]

oh thats right, when someone doesn't agree with your beliefs, they must be part of the far right.

This is why I'm a centrist, because while the far right exists with their messed up schemes, the far left has people like yourself on it, which just makes both sides pretty wrenched.

Claiming to be a "centrist", but linking videos of far-right conspiracy theories to back yourself up. Videos which contradict their own thesis by existing, as others have noted.

[eillas]

You linked a video by someone who is conspiracy theorist, and what it appears to be a white supremacist who calls the immigration of third world countries into west white genocide..

lol, centrism has lost all its meaning with people who claim to be it cozying up to/defending fascists.

Always funny when people whine about being called far right and then start calling everybody to the left of them as 'far left', never change your double standards lol
And feel free to think those opposing fascism are somehow just as bad as them lol

[szechuan]

How did you come to the conclusion that you were a centrist?

[Mormolyce]

Are other “supremacists” groups approved by these groups of nobodies my friend?

Nope.

Now back to the topic at hand, white supremacists.

[TEHPALLYTANK]

Then why is it punishable by death and imprisonment in most islamic countrys?

Iran's constitution should provide some answer to your question of "why".

It isn't necessarily an issue of the religion by itself, it often is an issue of a mixing of religion with government. I suggest reading the constitution of a country if you're confused by the laws of that country, it should help provide the missing context.

[Mormolyce]

discord is purging anyone they perceive as these things, not just the actual alt right, white nationalists and hate servers, anyone that doesn't fit into discords far leftist agenda is now black listed.

And you know this because the alt right told you so? Kek.

[Cthulhu 2020]

Similar to how many love to fear monger about(to use your vernacular) “DA FAR RIGHT”? Hell, there is even a thread about the “far right” in this very forum on the first page. Lol...

Call me when the far left is

> In many positions of power in western government
> Running people down in the streets with their cars and guns
> Calling for ethnic cleansing in large numbers

You get the right to complain when all of this is actually happening. Until then, the far left is the boogeyman conservatives invent to pretend their abhorrent ideology is relatively acceptable when comparing it to an equally horrible ideology.

Good. They might have free speech but that doesn't mean that private companies are to give them a platform spread their toxic views...

If the KKK sends their pamphlets to a printing company, that printing company absolutely can tell them to fuck off because they're not printing that garbage.

I have no idea where you ever got the idea they couldn't.

Can bakers refuse to sell to gays?

Equating the KKK with gays - like how dense can you be?

So double standards? Thought so.

Sexuality is a protected class, being a racist asshole isn't protected.

[Magnagarde]

Do they really care that much? Either way, if they think a group is hateful or a potential threat because of their views, isn't it better to have them all in one spot and keep a track on what they're up to.

The "left" isn't really the left; the left runs Venezuela, China and so on. There is no proper "left" in the West. There's only the far right and the liberals, which are either the centre or centre-right. Can't help but sigh every time I read someone saying "the left", "leftists" and so on. The last time the West ever had a left was back when the workers in Chicago went on strike to fight for their rights.

Gays don't advocate for discrimination. If they do and you refuse to print their things because they are spreading hate then it has nothing to do with them being gay - they are just racist/misogynist/whatever assholes who also happen to be gay (which is irrelevant in this context).

[Machismo]

Can bakers refuse to sell to gays?

Yes, the should be able to refuse. The people whining about Discord are no different than those whining about the baker who refused to bake the cake. Of course, that does not lend to any form of moral equivalent. White nationalists are terrible people. I know which group of people I'd rather choose not to serve.

Would you care if your business was being used to push a hateful agenda? My company refused a contract, because two of the people we would be working with were white nationalists.

I wouldn't. Money is money. Doing business has got nothing to do with one's political views, unless it involves business on a geopolitical and military level, which is when it certainly becomes a legitimate concern. This is a newfound mistreatment of business models where people somehow and for some reason refuse to do business because of whatever political ideas the other side you do business with has. I mean, what's next; refusing to serve a meal or drink to someone because they have a specific political view?

As I said, it is a lot better to keep people with such specific viewpoints in one place or several well-known places where they won't bother others across the entire platform and still make money off of them. I am by no means supportive of their agenda and political views.
