Don't Ask Don't Tell was a Clinton thing iirc.

Total sidebar, but it's weird how people remember DADT. Like it was a sudden LGBT-phobic policy that came out of nowhere. What it actually was, was a typical pathetic Democrat half-measure, trying to "compromise" with Christian fascists. The policy it replaced was that commanders could decide to just broadly investigate soldiers and look for evidence of them being gay to purge them from the military. The Democrats' solution was "just pretend to be straight all the time lol, and we'll promise to be less proactive about purging you"

It's bizarre to me that people could look at getting a bunch of young, fit men together, thrusting them into a situation where they mostly exist in a social bubble with each other, train to trust each other with their lives, and live in a culture of embracing excitement and violence, and then expect everyone to pretend some of them aren't fucking.

Tbh 90% of the military is just office work on computers. I don't trust my coworkers with my life, I hardly trust them not to fuck up the excel spreadsheet formulas I've made. Still fucking them on occasion tho so you nailed that part.

Report the server to Discord Trust and Safety. The whole server will be banned.

Use this form: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000029212&tf_360011846391=us_family_center

Make sure to select "I would like to report concerning or abusive behaviour to discord".

This is worth doing. Discord Trust and Safety have been legitimately good in my experience. They do not hesitate to shut down servers that they're made aware of problems in. Discord does not behave the same as Reddit.

I wish I knew what server it was. I pulled this screenshot from a Twitter post.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Dang. Oh well, the information will be something others pass on when they see this kind of shit.

Sure, but they have always been proactive about not allowing hate-filled discords. It's extremely easy to get these places permabanned. Reddit on the other hand has always been the opposite, doing everything in their power to ignore this kind of thing until pushed into it by media.

Implementing Don't Ask, Don't Tell on an internet forum.

[-] heartheartbreak@hexbear.net 60 points 1 year ago

Hey we won't be homophobic if you're not gay okay easy as that

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 54 points 1 year ago

As always the "no drama" declaring rule-makers bring the drama themselves.

Disgusting cowards.

This is literally just Don't Ask, Don't Tell

You don’t like “drama” and yet you are a Discord moderator. Curious very-intelligent

[-] xXthrowawayXx@hexbear.net 36 points 1 year ago

Lol literally “if you make me be a moderator you’re banned”

This is real, isn't it ?

no more half measures walter

“If anyone here is gay, please let us know by not engaging in homophobia”

The homophobic straights will be compelled to engage in bannable behavior in order to not be perceived as gay. And then everyone else will be banned for being gay. Server is now vacant. You’re welcome.

We need more servers like that

Wait, are you cishet? Jesus Christ why can’t we keep this political bullshit off this instance? Quit shoving it in our faces. Being straight doesn’t have to be your whole personality 🙄

[-] ToxicDivinity@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago
