Late Stage Capitalism

It's funny, a website used to have dedicated forums and then they switched to discord. I said "Bet not even 2 months later the place will go to shit" and then they did. The problem with discord servers is that there's no accountability and banning users doesn't only stop them from speaking but also locks them out entirely. Naturally, the mods go power hungry and ban everyone who disagrees with them and because only people who are on board get to stay around, it leads to a culture of people who are scared to speak out.

The only abusive thing discord doesn't let them do is edit other people's comments, but that's hardly saying much because all they have to do is right click "delete" and it's gone forever. No record, no trace. Nothing. Not even law enforcement. It was as if they were never there.
