Discord is allowing hate speech in voice chat.

zTheta962

My son, who loves discord, is being subjected to hearing hate speech, including use of the N word, while in voice chat. He has tried to intervene and it's made no difference. We tried to report the hate speech to Discord. Since discord does not seem to have a system in place for preventing this in voice chat, they are simply letting it happen. That is to say, it seems like Discord advocates hate speech, when it is spoken. I find this grossly irresponsible and frankly, vile. Discord allows young people to interact on it's platform and they have a responsibility to take action against hate speech. I'd like to know what Discord is going to do about this? I would like someone from Discord to contact me through my email, and explain to me why they allow this. There should be recourse for hate speech, in any venue. But especially a venue that aims to attract young people. Shame on Discord.

    Hello,

    First of all I would like to remind you that the Discord moderation team can't be everywhere at the same time, as far as voice chat rooms are concerned, it's sad to say but we can't do anything (apart from leaving the server in question)
    I would also like to remind you that Discord does not in any way condone hate speech of any kind.
    Good evening to you
    Shadow

    In the server he is in, could you report the user(s) to the moderation team in the server.

    The discord official moderation team will not accept any hate speech, But they also can't be everywhere at the same time
