>Gaming chat client Discord has banned servers and several users linked to white supremacist and Nazi ideologies, according to a tweet sent out from the official Discord account. “Discord’s mission is to bring people together around gaming,” their statement on Twitter read. “We will continue to take action against white supremacy, nazi ideology, and all forms of hate.”
>Saturday’s Charlottesville rally to retain a statue of Robert E. Lee drew participants from alt-right, Nazi, white supremacist and KKK groups. Following the rally, which resulted in the death of a counter-protester attacked by a car, a member of the Daily Stormer Discord, a group associated with the white supremacist movement, allegedly offered to “bring weapons” to the victim’s funeral. Journalist Laura Loomer reported the message to Discord via Twitter, spurring Discord to conduct an investigation which apparently resulted in them shutting down servers relating to Daily Stormer and Altright.com, another website associated with white supremacists and neo-Nazis like Richard Spencer. Discord also ceased service for “a number of accounts associated with the events in Charlottesville.”
>In subsequent tweets, Discord added that while they don’t read users’ private conversations, they will swiftly take action when people violate their Terms of Service.
>Altright.com swiftly posted a response, referring to Discord’s employees as “pathetic nerd cucks” who, in their actions, “joined the war against free speech.” They added, “The Globo-Corpo-Homo-Judeo establishment is coming at us from all angles and lobbing everything that they have our way. . .Boy, oh boy. They sure picked the wrong enemy. History has shown us that regions of disenfranchised, intelligent and motivated young men are very very good at resisting tyranny.”
Neither Discord nor Altright.com representatives have responded to Kotaku’s requests for comment.
Good. Sup Forums once again BTFO People who claim others should be denied rights automatically strip themselves of those same rights.

it's amazing that these dumb Sup Forumsfags are just now realizing that tech companies are literally founded on surveillance and have been watching everything they do.
I predict within the next year some of them will be on Tor. And still getting fucked with because they can't into either infosec or opsec.
Jack Scott
Isn't mumble primarily a voice chat service?
Oliver Powell
>relying on some 3rd party service >relying on someone else's servers >relying on a program made by autistic brony scum
The biggest problem in tech today is how depended everyone is on these centralized platforms with draconian policies. The normalizing of software becoming more and more harmful to the end user has been accelerating for years.
You're legitimately clueless retards for thinking that Sup Forums is part of an organized White Nationalist movement. Most of Sup Forums isn't even white.
Jacob Nguyen
Nope. No one's taking their rights away here, they're making a conscious decision to give up their rights themselves.
Levi Clark
>Isn't mumble primarily a voice chat service?
It's got text chat. All they need.
Jack Brown
Just move to IRC. I've yet to find a network with terms of service other than the MOTD. How hard can it be?
Andrew Bell
Yet they don't do the leftist cucks using their services fuck discord
Christian Gonzalez
For some reason IRC doesn't appeal to the millennial crowd.
Evan Green
>Most of Sup Forums isn't even white.
If you only count the anti-Jew part of Sup Forums, it is mostly White.
Sup Forums is not 100% anti-Jewish. Many are still libertarians, anarchists, and other assorted trash.
Chase Watson
I'll write an Electron IRC client in javascript that uses a gigabyte of RAM to sti idle in one channel. With a flat UI and animations everywhere. That should make the millennials like it more.
Ian Young
>Somebody tell them to use Mumble
Mumble isn't enough to use as a Discord alternative.
Nobody can fuck with them using an open source decentralized software, and they can run their own server.
Jason Nelson
It'd probably skyrocket in popularity over night.

There's a [i]big[/i] difference between right wing and alt-right, user.

How about going on the board and actually reading some of the topics on there instead of having prejudice against them. You will find that its a small segment of /pol itself and most actually have interesting discussions regarding politics.
Nicholas Nelson
IRC, once again, proving itself superior.
Joshua Thompson
>i can use your server for things that go against your terms of service because muh free speech on someone elses computer >of course we are fighting the tyranny, what are you, a commie?
Colton Powell
Anything that isn't far left is Nazi scum, so I don't even know what anything means anymore.
Ayden Perry
The only good choices right now are:
1) Wire 2) Matrix 3) Mumble
Wire is a lot like Skype but open source and encrypted and they need to let people run their own server, but they are unpopular enough for the altright to use without issue.
Matrix is the best option because open source, encrypted, can run own server, but its still kinda beta-mode right now.
Mumble is mostly voice chat for gamers with only text chat, but you can run your own server, have encryption, etc.
Ring is another option but that is really barebones right now and too GNU for most people, even Sup Forums.

IRC wouldn't have this problem but it is also not rich enough to support even a fraction of what Discord did.
I don't know why Sup Forums uses Discord when its so centrally run by SJWs.
Austin Martin

Adam King
In a couple years people will say Bernie Sanders is a Nazi for not defending trans toddler rights enough.
You misread his statement.
Though this discussion should probably stick to the software itself.
Sup Forums uses a lot of terrible meme tier software if you haven't noticed.
Charles King
What if you simply don't have this right -to call for mass discrimination and even violence against whole groups of people based on ethnicity or country of origin or such- to begin with?
Jordan Cox
All those deluded racists, neckbearded, white trash, rednecked, inbread, right wing nazis should die in a fire
Tyler Cooper
Anything that isn't far right is communist scum when you're far right.
But really, > Generally, the left wing is characterized by an emphasis on "ideas such as freedom, equality, fraternity, rights, progress, reform, and internationalism," while the right wing is characterized by an emphasis on "notions such as authority, hierarchy, order, duty, tradition, reaction and nationalism." > en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left–right_political_spectrum And you can at least somewhat categorize what is left and right without taking the view of the extremists to who everything is very left / very right.

Logan Murphy
"Sup Forums" uses Discord for the same reason "Sup Forums" uses anything. People they know use it, to talk to those people they have to use it. It doesn't mean "we" embrace all the features they have, it doesn't mean we don't attempt to disarm the botnet.
Daniel Adams
You know who should be ashamed of themselves?
Sup Forums
We still use Discord, a proprietary, SJW-run app while pretending we give a fuck about open source.
Why don't we use Matrix at the very least?
Discord shouldn't even be allowed on Sup Forums
Carson Baker
I use mumble 'cause it's superior.

Lol no. If that were true, they wouldn't have a presence in Africa, Asia, Latin America, or India.
The Jews have their own mini-city and buildings in the middle of Mexico, for example.
Every country has varying numbers of kike lovers and kike haters.

Irc is shit. You need something that keeps the channel history while you're not connected. Mattermost over tor or something like that.
Xavier Watson
Why would you need that?
Daniel Cox
Not everyone sits on their fap machine in their basement all day. Need to be able to move between devices without losing the conversation
Aaron Perry
Why? If you were talking about something before you switched devices just keep talking about it.
Ian Williams
Jesus fuck you're a dense cunt
Benjamin Turner
is the /random/ server still up?
Jace Diaz
No, seriously, why do you need to keep it? Do you record all your conversations just so you can keep track of them later? If you're talking about something and you decided to switch devices just keep talking about it. You don't need a fucking chat history to continue the conversation, do you?
Why should you fucking care what has been discussed while you weren't in the room? About the only people who should give a shit about that are the channel OPs and if they're worth anything they'll have a bot sitting in the room that'll keep a chat history and they can use to send out commands and shit.
Henry Bell

Juan Smith
Funny how you faggots had to be banned and censored to become anti-discord. The data mining, privacy breaches, the fact that it's closed and centralised, etc, weren't red flags big enough to pull out of the service until you started being silenced. Of course this was going to happen, idiots, and it'll keep happening for as long as you keep supporting scummy services like Discord.
Luis Gray
Can we all agree that a Sup Forums Discord would be a good idea?
Imageboards are too open. Any idiot can come here, ask a question about tech, and leave without contributing to the community. An invite-only Discord would foster more engagement, and allow us to easily shame/ban those who aren't fitting in.

Are you insane? You need to realize just who you're conversing with here. In general the people here are fucking scum. Were you not ever around for any of the ftp threads? Inevitably every single one had someone come around and upload CP. Without fail. Autistic tripfags, trannies with borderline personality disorder, bronies, thats who you'd get on your server. You don't want to consort with them in any capacity beyond anonymous posting.

See, this is what I'm talking about. I've posted on Sup Forums since 2007, and yet you're not treating me with the respect that a senior community member deserves.
Forums have post counts. Discord has roles. Long-time members are respected, and it's immediately clear to newcomers who it's okay to insult with words like "kill yourself".
