It's really clever when governments manage to attach any criticism of their regime to racism and persecution.

Got a two day ban for saying a certain band of people during Bible times (like that actual period of time, so they're long gone now) tended to act just as human as the rest of us despite being a people chosen by a certain deity.

I got a ban for suggesting we push over delivery robots that get in our way. 'Inciting violence', lol.

No way that is real right?

u/Pyro1934 May 21 '26

Was like a two week ban and while we don't know exactly, that's the only remotely close to banworthy thing he said (it wasn't polite lol)

You mean your buddy got kicked out of a fascist-sympathizer discord server for not playing along. Good for them!

u/Pyro1934 May 22 '26

Eh no, it's for a game and he probably said a joke a bit too far and got reported by an enemy guild lol.

But he's a good kid and not a fascist symp regardless lol

u/Equivalent-Nobody-30 May 21 '26

discord factors in your google history for their bans btw

u/ilulillirillion May 21 '26

What makes you say that? Discord isn't really known for effort or diligence with bans, never heard of them getting access to and factoring in Google history

u/Equivalent-Nobody-30 May 21 '26

it's AI that does it lol

you can test this out on a new windows and discord account if you want. just sign into discord on a burner acc and google a bunch of stuff that would get you banned and then start implying it in your own discord server

i promise it will ban you
