I don't  know if I'll ever understand how disagreeable opinions are supposed to be "unsafe."
because you're taking the term "safe space" too literally, although it's not a difficult concept

it's about finding comfort and peace-of-mind in a place where you don't have to put up with people's bullshit

disagreeable opinions aren't "unsafe," but they are annoying, and some people would rather be in a place where they don't have to be annoyed all the timeโ€”but since not everybody has the luxury of having a place like this, they have to be created
That actually makes sense. I'm trying to create a literal safe space server too. I can run two servers with two different purposes.

No I saw it coming eventually lol. That's why I was so self-assured and prepared for it.
making a thread about it here to ask who was in the right doesn't make you look very self-assured
I had the expectation that this thread would make me look fantastic, yes. And it did. I merely provided a poll so people could weigh in. That's not why I did this, but it was a good side effect for sure.

If it was delivered in a clinical way, and the person had actual evidence to back it up, then it would be allowed. I've said that even people arguing for phrenology can go into volcano. It's marked as a NSFW channel for a reason.
is this a popular section of the server, or does it rarely get posted in
It's the third channel down. It's in the main chats. This is how my server is laid out:

The Clouds are a special VIP chat for trusted members. The Tower is for mods. The Theater is read-only and I just upload a bunch of links to royalty-free TV shows.

how would you respond if someone entered the #volcano debate section and said "it's my personal belief that white people are superior to all other races"

the topic never comes up anywhere else; only in this designated channel that affords them absolute free speech, expressed in the most vanilla way possible

would you tolerate this? just curious as to how far this goes for you

there's no reason to ban anybody for having stupid opinions, but if the server really had been advertised as a "safe space" for these weak, weak people who so desperately need attention, or want to cling to the notion that they're special, or whatever the fuck is going on in their developing prepubescent minds, then it's not shock that they'd leave once the illusion that they're trying to maintain is shattered
Well, that's how it is advertised

I guess it's about TV shows. If I to believe to the description "Television connects us all" it's an open, wide... umm discord server. I don't think there is a one defined community in there, so things like that is bound to happen quite often until some sort of community will take a shape.
you're right, the description is so vague that you can project anything you want

what it should probably say instead is "a modest server with a focus on freedom of expression" because that's clearly the most important ideal to secondclass

empathy is a good thing to emphasize, but not if it's going to foster that stereotypical snowflake mentality where no one's allowed to have conversations about gender in a way that makes you uncomfortable
True, I should edit that.

wanting a drama-free safe space doesn't make you lesser minded, and it's weird that you think otherwise

edit:
don't you love when you accidentally leave out an important word like DOESN'T
I don't think it makes you lesser minded at all. I thought you thought that.

I take issue with this. At no point did I advertise my server as a safe space. People assumed it was a "safe space" because it was an LGBT/trans server that had strict rules against slurs, harassment, etc.
i would have to be stupid to take your word for it 100%, so i'm naturally going to assume that you're leaving out details because you're sick of looking bad

And you absoluitely can have LGBT people in a designated debate/free speech room. We aren't lesser minded just because of being LGBT lol. The sensitive ones don't speak for all of us.

Join my server and see for yourself dude. I'm not a liar.

And I messed up, I thought you meant all LGBT people, not just the safe spacers.

i actually think i might possibly be non-binary myself, because i've never really felt "at home" with my maleness in any real sense, but i've suppressed a lot of my own gender exploration just because i don't want the association
I completely understand that. To take a crude metaphor, it's like being a fan of the show Rick and Morty. Even if you truly enjoy the show and the plot and the characters and all that, you still don't want to be associated with the show whatsoever, just because of the people who loudly indulge in that show and make it look bad for everyone.

It's extremely unfortunate that someone is probably repressing out there just because they don't want to be associated with how society at large sees their demographic. That's part of the reason I despised my own gender identity so much. I really hated the presentation of "trannies" in media and Seth MacFarlane shows and such. I didn't want to be a gross "drag queen" that was so despicable, and the media I consumed taught me that drag queens and trans people were one and the same. That's what set me back at least a decade. So yes Verbatim, I completely understand where you're coming from here.

having a designated debate room where free speech absolutism is a cornerstone in what's been advertised as a safe space for LGBT+ people is a very poor mixture, and you really can't have both

given that you haven't provided the full story, i'm inclined to side with the people leaving

having a designated debate room where free speech absolutism is a cornerstone in what's been advertised as a safe space for LGBT+ people is a very poor mixture, and you really can't have both

it also sounds like some people left not because of the decision not to ban that person, but because you personally made it a much bigger thing than it needed to be by going on and on about it, to a point where you had people saying "okay fine, can we just drop it now" at the very beginning of the logs (clearly showing this went on for a much longer time than was shown)

no one wants to be part of a channel that's led by some raving druggie, despite the fact that you will never accept that that's what you are

i certainly think it's cool that you won't ban someone for having incendiary opinions, but perhaps if you made the intentions of the server clearer, you wouldn't be having this mass exodus of people who thought this was a drama-less server

this is also why nobody here is going to join, ever, because you're the one running it, and you've consistently proven that you don't know the first thing about how to run something like this
Oh how wrong you are, Verbatim. I never advertised it as a safe space, ever. I made my intentions clear from the start. The members tried to make it something that it wasn't. And lol, we're still going strong. It wasn't really a mass exodus. Eleven people left, most of them notable or staff members, yes. But they don't define the server. You don't know what you're talking about. I'll refer to you as "Verbatim" out of respect, I apologize for when I used your IRL name to try to seem cool.

I'm never getting rid of my dick, it's not even a masculine organ lol. A soft dick made from girl-type skin is actually really chill
Hard disagree but ok.
How do you "disagree"? Please elaborate, I actually enjoy discussions like this. I won't be offended or anything, so have at it.
A penis is literally the male sex organ. I fully understand the effects of HRT on it, having experienced it first hand, but itโ€™s still a dick.

Iโ€™m not arguing that having a penis makes you a man or having a vagina makes you a woman. Iโ€™m saying that itโ€™s a male organ on whoever itโ€™s attached to.
The penis is the sex organ that males are born with, yes. That doesn't mean that it's indefinitely, and always will be this male sex organ label. You need to open your mind a bit I think.

Iโ€™m pretty sure I read a thread where you admitted there was 12 year old children on that discord

A federal prison is the place you need to be
I said there were probably 13 year olds in it, as that's the youngest age you're able to use Discord within the rules. Not a bad thing, and the fact that you think it's creepy is what's actually very telling and creepy itself.

To be totally fair, there's probably a lot of childhood stuff out there better left forgotten. And then there's shows like totally spies and total drama island which live on immortally via wankfest in young adults still tapping into the golden teenage nostalgia of years long past.
Totally Spies is a genuinely hilarious, well-written show that only creeps find anything wankable in.

Chinatown is a dry film - devoid of both water and hope. Itโ€™s also a film that contains one of my favorite villains, ever. He doesnโ€™t have any powers or abilities - he isnโ€™t even a Joker-style manipulator of chaos with the ability to plan eight steps ahead. No, the antagonist of this film, Noah Cross, is such a fantastic villain because heโ€™s real. He represents the true evildoers in our world: the people who care about nothing but what they can own and the magnitude of the mark theyโ€™ll leave after they're gone.

He rapes his own daughter to leave a mark on her, so sheโ€™ll never be able to forget him. He plunders all the water from his state to leave a mark on it, ensuring that future generations will remember that he was the man who did it. He doesnโ€™t show any remorse for his actions, not even trying to justify them. He says that in the right time and at the right place, anyone would be capable of doing exactly what he did. Heโ€™s a textbook sociopath, caring only about his legacy. Even when our idealistic hero, Jake Gittes, points out that thereโ€™s nothing more on the planet that Cross could own and asks him in exasperation WHAT more he could possibly want, Cross grins and declares, โ€œThe future, Mr. Gittes! The future.โ€ It's worth noting that Cross intentionally misprounounces Gittes' name as "Gitts", another tactic to demean the man and show his ownership of the situation.

Noah Cross displays no empathy for his victims throughout the film. This is exemplified early on, when itโ€™s revealed that he eats his fish dinner with the head still on the fish. The eyes looking up at its killer donโ€™t seem to bother Cross as he takes a bite out of its flesh, and neither is he bothered by his โ€œgranddaughterโ€™sโ€ screams of horror when abducting her, even though she just saw him murder her mother in cold blood. Heโ€™s still smiling and acting like he did nothing wrong.

Perhaps the worst part of this entire film is that Crossโ€™ only protection, the only thing stopping him from being punished by his multitudes of unabashed cruelties, is the society that he himself is destroying. The law offers no recourse to Jake to stop this monster, and the best thing Jake can do to solve the problem, is to โ€œforget itโ€.

You should all watch this film if you haven't yet. It's truly one of the best films ever shot and I give you my word that you'll be moved by it.
