All these who voted "yes" you have a chance to either contact them to try to convince them that these laws don't work or also vote against them so they don't get re elected
The fight is so neck and neck that a few reps could make a difference
The House Committee on Energy and Commerce passed the Kids Act, a mix of KOSA, Screen Act, and several other ID/facescan verification bills. There is still time before a final vote in the House, as well as a Senate version. Please use this link to call your Senators and Representatives to vote no.
We are genuinely not far off from a nation attempting to ban porn wholesale, or extrapolating to include furry content etc etc
Theyre coming for -everyone-. You need to internalize that and push back. Get family and friends involved and explain the stakes.
Guess I worried a little too early last year cause THIS is the year of worrying about the THICCS being c@nc3led.
My account here was just locked for some reason.
If this keeps happening, guess I'll officially go on hiatus from thicss for the next 2 1/2 yrs till ppl stop being idiots at the b@ll0ts!
There is no sound argument for why adults should be allowed to use their money to buy knives, guns, alcohol, tabacco, and gacha pulls, but not porn
A graphic with two vertical halves. The left half, with green background and check marks, says: "A safer internet IS MADE BY Encryption, Privacy, and Open Source"; the right half, with red background and crosses, says "A safer internet is NOT MADE BY Age verification, Scanning communication, or Tracking & data collection." #saferinternetday
Reposting this with alt text.
All those Discord alternatives that y'all are trying to push (Stoat, Matrix, Fluxer, Root, etc.) will have to comply with this as well if we don't stop this.
CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES EVERY DAY & TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON KOSA, SCREEN Act, & ANY OTHER INTERNET CENSORSHIP BILLS!
They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.
tight jammies 👚
It's literally the "we are still doing it but now we would like you to be less mad about it." post. After 3 backdowns that didn't even back down they pull out another BIG puppy eyed SUPER sorry backdown that ALSO doesn't back down.
No. You've fuckied your last wucky, UwU.

NOW is the time to make calls to your reps about KOSA, SCREEN act, section 230 and more
Call your legislators. Speak to office aides. Leave messages. Do so every day. Be loud and annoying. Get family and friends to join in.

DO NOT. I repeat, DO NOT give your personal ID to these sites because they're trying to push mass surveillance on every website and this really will be the death of the internet.
NEVER. GIVE. THEM. YOUR. PERSONAL. ID.
EXTREMELY FUCKING IMPORTANT
It seems like the majority of people are just looking at the headline and interpreting this as another "whoops! user data got leaked! our bad!"
What was actually exposed was code used in Persona's software. Code showing that this company is doing A LOT MORE THAN CHECKING YOUR AGE.
Reminder: under no circumstance should you give discord your ID.
It is gonna -suck- trying to set up alternatives, and this whole fiasco is going to damage communities, but you CANNOT give them your info
Ur welcome pal ^^
Merry Bday for my ol' pal @anaugi.bsky.social 🎂💗
yes
Discord might have cut ties but they're still planning to roll out age verification globally next month.
Continue to cancel your nitro subscriptions, if you haven't done so already. Don't boosts servers as well.
Hit them in the wallet.
at times i feel like yelling at ppl to call ur reps is pointless, nobody cares, and the only way to get ppl to listen is to morph into mr beast or jake paul. but im not even sure they would exist w/o section 230. u wouldnt have social media or messaging w/o it.
so i called my reps and u should too
big ol' hearts 💗
happy valentines from big b00bie pizza man
♥️ valentines doug ♥️
I keep seeing folks say they'll just accept a Teen Friendly account on Discord rather than scan or ID and I don't know if I wanna mass normalize leaving NSFW pals out in the cold yet again. Especially with all the censorship stuff goin on I think we gotta stand with the freaks now more than ever.
discord lied. don't give them your ID or a facial scan. don't trust them with your ID or biometric data.
That's so funny man we gave em shit and then they turn to the cartoon super villain
If we give up here then we allow this to hit every other platform you cherish. So don't relent, keep up the pressure
The text says: “JIM CROW 2.0: The “SAVE” Act is voter suppression in disguise. This impacts ALL of us, especially: -150 Million Americans without a passport. -Seniors who are less likely to have access to their birth certificates. -Students frequently moving, facing a prove residency nightmare. -Members of the Military trying to make their voice heard in the country they serve. -Victims of Natural Disasters or those with lost documents. -Immigrant communities targeted for exercising their basic rights. -Call 833-346-1779 Tell your senators to vote NO on the SAVE Act.
While Americans struggle with real issues, Republicans are wasting time on a voter suppression bill that would block millions of people from voting. They're not trying to save America—they're trying to take OUR power to keep theirs. Call your MOC: #StopTheSaveAct

Youve gotta bother the shit out if your representatives about the issue of online ID laws, its not a discord only problem nor is it limited to nsfw content
Please get involved
Everyone who can see this, when you get the time, call or email Discord. This is such a heinously dangerous position they're putting you and every other Discord user in for no good reason

I hope 2026 treats you the way you treat trans women.
