That sounds preposterous. Do you have more info on this?

EDIT: From the Discord TOS - https://discord.com/new/terms

As an example, you agree not to use the Service in order to:

- post, upload, transmit or otherwise disseminate information that is objectionable as outlined in our Community Guidelines;

- defame, libel, ridicule, mock, stalk, threaten, harass, intimidate or abuse anyone;

- engage in conduct that is fraudulent or illegal or otherwise harmful to Discord or any other user;

- ...

Also from the community guidelines - https://discord.com/new/guidelines

Here are some rules for interacting with others:

- Do not organize, participate in, or encourage harassment of others. Disagreements happen and are normal, but continuous, repetitive, or severe negative comments may cross the line into harassment and are not okay.

- Do not organize, promote, or coordinate servers around hate speech. It’s unacceptable to attack a person or a community based on attributes such as their race, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, or disabilities.

Did you notice the part where you can't use alternative clients and Discord scans all your messages?

I'm guessing it's this clause?

>Do not organize, promote, or coordinate servers around hate speech. It’s unacceptable to attack a person or a community based on attributes such as their race, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, or disabilities

I can definietly imagine some religious people claiming to be "attacked" by a political cartoon, eg. the charlie hebdo cartoon

It is the clause that literally says ridicule (“defame, libel, ridicule, mock, stalk, threaten, harass, intimidate or abuse anyone”).

No mocking anyone, political leaders included, anywhere on Discord, per the TOS.
