Hello @everyone

This is a reminder that our server is committed to complying with and enforcing Discord’s terms of service and guidelines. (found at <https://discordapp.com/guidelines> and <https://discordapp.com/terms>)

As always, anyone recruiting/promoting/glorifying Nazi ideology will be banned - as this is in violation of Discord’s guidelines. We have received screenshots of other servers planning to raid our server, post Nazi material, then use it to report our server. As this is happening, we will have a zero-tolerance policy for the foreseeable future. You have been warned.

Have a good night, and the last announcement (sending a friend request to your favorite mod or admin) is still in effect.

King (last ping of the night)

__**DEBATE NIGHT**__

**Right to Free Speech vs Rights as a Private Corporation**
**Date**: *Sunday, January 14*
**Time**: *8PM EST*

**Right to Free Speech Argument**
```
- All US Citizens have the Right to Free Speech as specified in the US Constitution, so Twitter and other companies shouldn't silence opposing views
```
**Rights as a Private Corporation Argument**
```
- Twitter as a private organization has the right to block and kick off people that they decide should not be on their platfrom.
```

@everyone
__**DEBATE NIGHT**__

**The Purpose of Prison: Reformity vs Punishment**
**Date**: *Sunday, January 21*
**Time**: *8PM EST*

**Reformity**
```
- Not all criminals who commit their crimes are necessarily doing them because they're "evil" or "terrible" people, but rather because of the circumstances of their life.
-Criminals who regret their actions and want to do better in life should have that chance instead of total punishment.
```
**Punishment**
```
- Criminals know that they are breaking the law when they commit unlawful actions. They deserve only punishment for willingly breaking the law.
-There is not any kind of guarantee that "reformed" criminals are actually reformed, and instead, they may just leave the prison to go and commit more crimes.
```

@everyone
__**DISCUSSION/DEBATE NIGHT**__

@everyone

It has come to our attention that certain journalists are making false, unsubstantiated claims against our server. They have claimed that our server is promoting hateful ideologies, that our server doesn’t even exist anymore, and that the administration team of this server encourages “Nazi ideology”. These claims are obviously and verifiably false. Who these journalists are do not matter, since we are a good, wholesome server that does not attack or bombard others. (Also, it is worth mentioning that the only sources these journalists used was a Reddit post.)

I have wiped the main chat channels as a precaution, as these journalists have showed they have no integrity in their reporting. My fear is that they will take comments made by our users completely out of context, and use them to pressure Discord into suspending that user’s account, or possibly our server. This would not be the first time this happen. Around the time of the CC coup, a journalist took a screenshot of a new user (with the New User role) saying that “There were no bodies on the scene” referring to the Las Vegas shooting. He then proceeded to claim that we had a chat room that was dedicated to proving the LV shooting was a false flag, simply because one new user said so.

For as long as these journalists are actively attacking our server and looking for ways to get us shut down, we will be instituting a more extreme form of moderation, just as a precaution.

**TL;DR, we have wiped the main chat channels as a precaution, because journalists with no integrity are taking user’s comments out of context.**

__**DISCUSSION NIGHT**__

**North Korea**
**Date**: *Sunday, March 11*
**Time**: *8PM EST*

**Questions**
```
- Will Kim Jong-Un give up his nuclear weapons?
- Has Trump been an effective leader through everything involving North Korea?
- Do you support global nuclear disarmament?
- Do you foresee the United States using any of our nuclear weapons in the next 5-10 years?
- What do you believe should be done in the event that disarmament talks with NK go sour?
- If disarmament happens, do you support SK taking back the North or should the two co-exist as sovereign states? If the two are allowed to co-exist, is it only a matter of time before tensions rise again between the two nations?
- If a one state solution were to happen, would it be beneficial to the global economy?
- If NK and SK were to reunite, how should they assimilate into each other?
```

@everyone
__**DISCUSSION NIGHT**__

- What method of execution do people on death row deserve?

Happy Easter from the TRS mod team!

Turns out the YouTube shooter had a lot of weird videos on her channel, and was demonetized on YouTube. Her channel was suspended today, but before that happened, we archived all the videos on her channel. We are reuploading them on our channel. Talk in <#430943214263074817> if you want to see what's happening. 🙂 @everyone
