Comment on Discord Users Threaten Exodus Over Age Verification Face Scan Controversy

if you are some asocial hermit living in a basement that may be true for you.

most people live in a society and engage in some communities, these have some means of communication and since it’s 21st century, they are usually digital. and these communities are not centered around you and few dozens/hundreds/thousands people are not going to leave the tool they all know and switch to another tool just because you told them to.

if i lose access to my school’s discord, my ability to communicate with my classmates and ask for a help or information on anything school related is going to be significantly crippled, to the point where i am not going to do that.

lol

if you leave a communication platform, and no one can be assed to communicate with you through different channels, then all that means is that you don’t matter enough. maybe never really did. if your school doesn’t provide any other means for communication other than discord, then your school sucks.

i never told you what to do with your life, only observing how ridiculous it all is. enjoy your age verification/data breach/stolen identities/etc.
