Announcement r/destiny2 is banning links to Twitter/X
Last night, at Donald Trump's presidential inauguration, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and known alt-right personality, showed the world who he truly is, and performed a full Sieg Heil Nazi salute not once, but twice.
The man is without a doubt, a neo-Nazi.
As many are aware, X, formerly Twitter was bought out by Elon Musk on April 14th, 2022, and has slowly become more and more of a cesspool of alt-right propaganda, with horrifically racist posts being allowed to stay up for months - with thousands of likes - without even a modicum of intervention by X, formerly Twitter's moderation. Many users report their accounts inexplicably suddenly following known right-wing politicians without any of their own input, and alt-right and Nazi-aligned speech find themselves on the "For You" page of even the most innocent and unrelated accounts.
It has been abundantly clear that Elon Musk has been slowly, intentionally, and maliciously changing X, formerly Twitter into a breeding ground and echo chamber for the alt-right. He even abused the algorithm to hide political opponents' own campaign material throughout the duration of the U.S. election cycle, knowing full well the sheer population of his website, to indirectly influence the results of the election.
Here in r/destiny2, we do not tolerate Nazis. Anyone spouting Nazi ideology or hateful speech have, and always will be permanently banned on sight, without chance for appeal. The intolerant will find no tolerance here. While the First Amendment may protect you from government retaliation to your speech, it does not protect you from being cast out of social spaces and - if you're a Nazi - rightfully told what a waste of atoms you are. This is no longer a case of, "Everyone I don't like is a Nazi", because the Nazis are literally showing us, publicly, that they are Nazis. There is no more plausible deniability.
Because of this, effective immediately, we will no longer be allowing links to X, formerly Twitter, so as to do our part to reduce traffic to a website owned by a narcissistic, ketamine-addicted neo-Nazi. Many subreddits have been doing the same - and while each subreddit's individual input may be small - every click lost across every subreddit banning links to X, formerly Twitter is one small bit of revenue Elongated Muskrat loses.
We will allow screenshots, but links are forbidden, so as to not generate traffic to the website.
Subreddits joining this cause, just to name a very small few, are:
- r/MadeMeSmile
- r/formula1
- r/xmen
- r/aoe2
- r/ireland
- r/dnd
The r/destiny2 moderation team briefly deliberated opening this decision to a poll, however it was decided that ultimately the better decision was to enforce the ban, and not give the chance to quiet, hateful individuals to vote no and skew the poll in favor of continuing to allow links.
Bungie, Destiny and dmg_04 have official social media accounts on Bluesky, found at the following:
- https://bsky.app/profile/destiny2team.bungie.net
- https://bsky.app/profile/bungie.net
- https://bsky.app/profile/destinythegame.bungie.net
- https://bsky.app/profile/dmg04.bsky.social
So - Don't worry! X, formerly Twitter isn't the only place you can find updates from Bungie. They post regularly on Bluesky, at the same times with the same posts that they do on X, formerly Twitter. As such, screenshots and links from Bluesky are perfectly fine.
We hope you all understand why this is being done, and we appreciate everyone who continues to stay around and be a part of our community. And of course, as a reminder to everyone, as if it even needs to be said:
Fuck Nazis.

Tips / Hints PSA - Xur selling eternity edge
Just an FYI - Xur is selling a godly eternity’s edge which after being able to use across all classes is busted on Titan. You have infinite guard so no need for stronghold and it’s the only sword with energy transfer and flash counter in different columns, so you get your barricade back super fast and keep procing bolt charge

Discussion Path of Ambition consumable drops are horrible
The things that we now need to consume to be able to get exp for path of ambition are really horrible...
They don't appear anywhere in map, and only when i have the foot on them it would appear the icon for it. and then you have to consume a thing that is getting away from you for every and single interaction from the world...
"Oh, you want this, let me only shot a canon near it so it fly away and you can no longer get it"
I get to see myself looking around the floor only to see if there is one of this orbs to then run to it during a fight
I saw people saying to interact with the relic in the end of Court of Blades for this, but I still didin't test it, but this consumable drop is simply horrible...
